What problem does it solve? Complex engineering, architecture, product, and organisational decisions often get one-shot answers that hide trade-offs and assumptions. This Skill forces a disciplined decision workshop with conflicting viewpoints, explicit trade-offs, and a mandatory human decision instead of a single recommendation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Five-phase decision workflow: Frame the decision, build a neutral baseline, assemble a panel, run a structured debate, then force an explicit human choice with a review date. - Three panel styles: Choose archetype voices for technical decisions, stakeholder voices for organisational and process decisions, or named public figures with confidence levels and verification paths. - Guided and full modes: Run phase-by-phase with checkpoints when the brief is rough, or run phases 1-4 in one pass when the brief is complete. - ADR drafting: Produces a first-pass Architecture Decision Record aligned with the repository ADR template, defaulting status to Proposed and marking gaps as TBD. - Use Case: Paste a brief about whether to migrate a modular monolith to microservices, and receive a moderated debate between opposing architecture voices, decisive questions, and a draft ADR once you choose an option. ## Quick Start Invoke the skill with /virtual-think-tank and paste a filled-in briefing template describing your decision subject, constraints, and decision horizon.
