The Council
Built at Zero to Agent: Vercel x Deepmind Hackathon SF · Mar 21, 2026 · San Francisco, CA

The Council is an AI-powered debate agent that helps teams make better decisions by turning disagreements into structured, evidence-based arguments. When your team faces a hard decision, trigger a debate in Discord, Slack, or any type of chat, where our orchestrator agent, Nick Fury, assembles a council of expert AI personas dynamically tailored to your specific question, pulling context from your chat history and GitHub repository. Each persona argues from a distinct perspective in a fast-paced back-and-forth debate, surfacing angles your team never considered. The debate concludes with a casual decision summary in chat, a full PDF report with complete reasoning, and a one-click GitHub PR that commits the team's decision directly to the repo. Built on Vercel's Chat SDK for universal platform support across Discord, Slack, and Teams, powered by Gemini 2.5 Flash for multimodal reasoning across text, code, and context. The core insight: the most valuable part of any debate isn't the final answer — it's the reasoning you didn't consider. Objection surfaces that reasoning automatically, so your team decides with full context, not just the loudest voice in the room.
