# Council
Council is an optional judgment strategy for hard questions where contrasting
perspectives can expose alternatives, assumptions, or missed evidence. Use it
when the caller selects multiple views for brainstorming, architecture or
planning, or validation. Name the uncertainty that makes the additional
contexts useful; routine work needs no council. Neighbours: one opinion or
look-over is [Review](../review/SKILL.md), one adversarial challenge of a plan
is [Premortem](../premortem/SKILL.md), one consequential choice for Plan is
[Idea Genie](../idea-genie/SKILL.md), and an acceptance verdict is
[Validate](../validate/SKILL.md).
