Fan out a question to multiple independent AI agents (Gemini/Antigravity, OpenAI/Codex, Cursor, and optionally a further model of your choice) through PAL's clink tool, then synthesize their answers into one recommendation. Use for multi-agent brainstorming, getting a second/third opinion on a design or plan, sanity-checking a decision across model families, or when the user says "ask the other AIs", "brainstorm with multiple models", or "get other perspectives".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# clink-brainstorm

> **Requires [PAL MCP server](https://github.com/BeehiveInnovations/pal-mcp-server)** connected as an MCP server, with its `clink` tool configured for at least two independent CLI agents. This skill is a prompting/orchestration layer on top of `clink` — it does nothing standalone without PAL installed and reachable. See Prerequisites below.

Drive 3+ independent AI agents on the **same well-specified question**, then synthesize the answers yourself into one recommendation. This is "manual consensus" — PAL's native `consensus` tool cannot mix clink CLI agents with its own model provider roster, so the orchestration is done by hand, here.

## What this skill is, and what the other one is

Two skills sit on `clink`. They are not variants of each other, and the distinction decides every routing choice below.

| | What it is | What comes back |
|---|---|---|
| **`clink-brainstorm`** — this file | **an engineering committee.** Several senior agents put on the *same* codebase review or the *same* plan, then you synthesize | **judgment** — what is wrong, what to build, which approach wins |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add xenodeve/xeno-skills/clink-brainstorm@sha256:620ba10e7f0f2789

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.50330b9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
