Multi-Role Boardroom Deliberation

Runs a 6-phase multi-role boardroom deliberation across the C-suite for a single strategy brief, producing a board memo with a recommendation, vote tally, dissents, and devil's advocate concerns. It isolates advisors in Phase 2 to prevent groupthink and surfaces explicit dissent.

✨ What it does

  • 6-phase protocol: briefing, isolated independent thinking, cross-examination, devil's advocate pass, synthesis, decision
  • Phase 2 isolation prevents anchoring and surfaces dissent.
  • Cross-examination by role-specific advisors (CFO critiques math, CISO critiques risk, etc.).
  • Devil's advocate pass with severity-rated concerns.
  • Generates a board memo with vote tally, dissent, and success/kill criteria.
  • Routes to /cs:decide, /cs:execute, /cs:cross-eval, or /cs:freeze.

🎯 When to use it

  • When a decision spans multiple executive domains (e.g., pricing change affecting finance, positioning, and product).
  • When you need a structured, adversarial review of a major strategic option.
  • When you want to capture explicit dissent and kill criteria before committing.
  • When a high-stakes decision requires input from up to 10 C-level roles.

🚀 How to use

Trigger: /cs:boardroom

Trigger with the slash command /cs:boardroom <brief-path> where <brief-path> points to a brief file (typically in ~/.claude/briefs/). The skill reads the brief, identifies affected roles, runs the phases, and outputs a memo. Example prompts:

/cs:boardroom ~/.claude/briefs/pricing-change.md
/cs:boardroom runway-decision.md

📄 Output: A board memo saved to ~/.claude/boardroom/YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>.md with recommendation, vote tally, dissent, devil's advocate concerns, and decision path.

⚠️ Good to know

Requires a pre-existing brief file and access to the cs-* advisor agents; the skill itself does not create the brief.

❓ FAQ

Why is Phase 2 isolation important?

Phase 2 isolation prevents advisors from seeing each other's positions before forming their own, which avoids anchoring and surfaces dissents that sycophancy would suppress.

What does the board memo include?

The memo includes the question, recommended option, vote tally, unresolved dissents, devil's advocate concerns with mitigations, success/kill criteria, and recommended decision path.

What happens after the memo is produced?

The memo is presented to the founder for acceptance, modification, or rejection; if approved, it routes to /cs:decide for logging.
