llm-council

Multi-LLM collaborative brainstorming and planning. Use when user explicitly requests consultation with multiple AI models (ChatGPT, Gemini, other LLMs) before presenting an implementation plan, or asks to "consult the council", "ask other models", or "get perspectives from other AIs". Queries external LLM APIs, synthesizes their perspectives, and presents an adapted implementation plan.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 2 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by gcpdev on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Llm Council AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/gcpdev/llm-council-skill/tree/main/llm-council
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/gcpdev/llm-council-skill.git /tmp/llm-council-skill
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/llm-council-skill/llm-council .claude/skills/llm-council
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Llm Council in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Llm Council on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Llm Council is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

LLM Council

Consult multiple AI models (ChatGPT and Gemini) for their perspectives before presenting implementation plans to users.

Workflow

When user requests consultation with other AI models, use phrases like:

  • "Consult with ChatGPT and Gemini about..."
  • "Ask other AI models what they think about..."
  • "Get perspectives from the council on..."
  • "Consult the LLM council: [your question]"

Process:

  1. Query external LLMs: Run scripts/query_llms.py with the user's prompt to get perspectives from both ChatGPT and Gemini
  2. Analyze responses: Review what each model suggests, identifying valuable insights, alternative approaches, and potential concerns
  3. Synthesize plan: Create an implementation plan that incorporates the best ideas from all three models (Claude's own analysis + ChatGPT + Gemini)
  4. Present to user: Show the final plan along with a brief summary of key contributions from each model

Setup Requirements

The skill requires API keys and optional model configuration stored in a .env file in the working directory:

OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
GEMINI_API_KEY=...

# Optional: Specify which models to use (defaults shown below)
OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-5-nano
GEMINI_MODEL=gemini-3-flash-preview

Default Models:

  • ChatGPT: gpt-5-nano (fastest, most cost-efficient - $0.05/1M input, $0.40/1M output)
  • Gemini: gemini-3-flash-preview (balanced speed and intelligence)

Upgrade Options for Better Collaboration:

OpenAI models (ordered by capability and cost):

  • gpt-5-nano - Fastest, most cost-efficient ($0.05/1M in, $0.40/1M out) - DEFAULT
  • gpt-5-mini - Faster, cost-efficient for well-defined tasks ($0.25/1M in, $2.00/1M out)
  • gpt-5.2 - Best for coding and agentic tasks ($1.75/1M in, $14.00/1M out)
  • gpt-5.2-pro - Smarter, more precise for complex problems ($21.00/1M in, $168.00/1M out)

All models support reasoning tokens, 400K context window, and image input.

Gemini models (ordered by capability):

  • gemini-2.5-flash-lite - Ultra-fast, optimized for throughput
  • gemini-2.5-flash - Best price-performance, large-scale processing
  • gemini-3-flash-preview - Balanced speed and frontier intelligence (default)
  • gemini-3-pro-preview - Most intelligent multimodal model, best for complex reasoning

Higher-tier models provide more sophisticated analysis but cost more per API call.

If the .env file doesn't exist or keys are missing, inform the user and provide setup instructions.

Usage Example

User input: "Consult the council: How should I architect a real-time data pipeline for IoT sensors?"

Claude's process:

  1. Execute: python3 scripts/query_llms.py "How should I architect a real-time data pipeline for IoT sensors?"
  2. Parse JSON responses from ChatGPT and Gemini
  3. Analyze their suggestions (e.g., ChatGPT suggests Kafka, Gemini recommends considering edge computing)
  4. Synthesize final plan incorporating valuable insights from all models
  5. Present the adapted plan to user with attribution

Output Format

Present the final implementation plan naturally, mentioning key insights from other models inline where relevant. For example:

"Based on consultation with ChatGPT and Gemini, here's the recommended architecture:

[Implementation plan with inline references like "ChatGPT highlighted the importance of..." or "Gemini suggested..."]

Key contributions:

  • ChatGPT: [brief summary]
  • Gemini: [brief summary]"

Error Handling

  • If API keys are missing, inform user and provide setup instructions
  • If an API call fails, note which model's perspective is unavailable and proceed with available responses
  • If both APIs fail, inform user and offer to provide Claude's own analysis without external consultation

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Llm Council AI skill do?

Multi-LLM collaborative brainstorming and planning. Use when user explicitly requests consultation with multiple AI models (ChatGPT, Gemini, other LLMs) before presenting an implementation plan, or asks to "consult the council", "ask other models", or "get perspectives from other AIs". Queries external LLM APIs, synthesizes their perspectives, and presents an adapted implementation plan.

Why use Llm Council on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Llm Council is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Llm Council in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/gcpdev/llm-council-skill/tree/main/llm-council. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Llm Council?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Llm Council?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Llm Council with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Llm Council AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by gcpdev under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
