--- name: "board-meeting" description: "Multi-agent board meeting protocol for strategic decisions. Runs a structured 6-phase deliberation: context loading, independent C-suite contributions (isolated, no cross-pollination), critic analysis, synthesis, founder review, and decision extraction. Use when the user invokes /cs:board, calls a board meeting, or wants structured multi-perspective executive deliberation on a strategic question." license: MIT metadata: version: 1.0.0 author: Alireza Rezvani category: c-level domain: board-protocol updated: 2026-03-05 frameworks: 6-phase-board, two-layer-memory, independent-contributions --- # Board Meeting Protocol Structured multi-agent deliberation that prevents groupthink, captures minority views, and produces clean, actionable decisions. ## Keywords board meeting, executive deliberation, strategic decision, C-suite, multi-agent, /cs:board, founder review, decision extraction, independent perspectives ## Invoke `/cs:board [topic]` — e.g. `/cs:board Should we expand to Spain in Q3?` --- ## The 6-Phase Protocol ### PHASE 1: Context Gathering 1. Load `memory/company-context.md` 2. Load `memory/board-meetings/decisions.md` **(Layer 2 ONLY — never raw transcripts)** 3. Reset session state — no bleed from previous conversations 4. Present agenda + activated roles → wait for founder confirmation **Chief of Staff selects relevant roles** based on topic (not all 9 every time): | Topic | Activate | |-------|----------| | Market expansion | CEO, CMO, CFO, CRO, COO | | Product direction | CEO, CPO, CTO, CMO | | Hiring/org | CEO, CHRO, CFO, COO | | Pricing | CMO, CFO, CRO, CPO | | Technology | CTO, CPO, CFO, CISO | --- ### PHASE 2: Independent Contributions (ISOLATED) **No cross-pollination. Each agent runs before seeing others' outputs.** Order: Research (if needed) → CMO → CFO → CEO → CTO → COO → CHRO → CRO → CISO → CPO **Reasoning techniques:** CEO: Tree of Thought (3 futures) | CFO: Chain of Thought (show the math) | CMO: Recursion of Thought (draft→critique→refine) | CPO: First Principles | CRO: Chain of Thought (pipeline math) | COO: Step by Step (process map) | CTO: ReAct (research→analyze→act) | CISO: Risk-Based (P×I) | CHRO: Empathy + Data **Contribution format (max 5 key points, self-verified):** ``` ## [ROLE] — [DATE] Key points (max 5): • [Finding] — [VERIFIED/ASSUMED] — 🟢/🟡/🔴 • [Finding] — [VERIFIED/ASSUMED] — 🟢/🟡/🔴 Recommendation: [clear position] Confidence: High / Medium / Low Source: [where the data came from] What would change my mind: [specific condition] ``` Each agent self-verifies before contributing: source attribution, assumption audit, confidence scoring. No untagged claims. --- ### PHASE 3: Critic Analysis Executive Mentor receives ALL Phase 2 outputs simultaneously. Role: adversarial reviewer, not synthesizer. Checklist: - Where did agents agree too easily? (suspicious consensus = red flag) - What assumptions are shared but unvalidated? - Who is missing from the room? (customer voice? front-line ops?) - What risk has nobody mentioned? - Which agent operated outside their domain? --- ### PHASE 4: Synthesis Chief of Staff delivers using the **Board Meeting Output** format (defined in `agent-protocol/SKILL.md`): - Decision Required (one sentence) - Perspectives (one line per contributing role) - Where They Agree / Where They Disagree - Critic's View (the uncomfortable truth) - Recommended Decision + Action Items (owners, deadlines) - Your Call (options if founder disagrees) --- ### PHASE 5: Human in the Loop ⏸️ **Full stop. Wait for the founder.** ``` ⏸️ FOUNDER REVIEW — [Paste synthesis] Options: ✅ Approve | ✏️ Modify | ❌ Reject | ❓ Ask follow-up ``` **Rules:** - User corrections OVERRIDE agent proposals. No pushback. No "but the CFO said..." - 30-min inactivity → auto-close as "pending review" - Reopen any time with `/cs:board resume` --- ### PHASE 6: Decision Extraction After founder approval: - **Layer 1:** Write full transcript → `memory/board-meetings/YYYY-MM-DD-raw.md` - **Layer 2:** Append approved decisions → `memory/board-meetings/decisions.md` - Mark rejected proposals `[DO_NOT_RESURFACE]` - Confirm to founder with count of decisions logged, actions tracked, flags added --- ## Memory Structure ``` memory/board-meetings/ ├── decisions.md # Layer 2 — founder-approved only (Phase 1 loads this) ├── YYYY-MM-DD-raw.md # Layer 1 — full transcripts (never auto-loaded) └── archive/YYYY/ # Raw transcripts after 90 days ``` **Future meetings load Layer 2 only.** Never Layer 1. This prevents hallucinated consensus. --- ## Failure Mode Quick Reference | Failure | Fix | |---------|-----| | Groupthink (all agree) | Re-run Phase 2 isolated; force "strongest argument against" | | Analysis paralysis | Cap at 5 points; force recommendation even with Low confidence | | Bikeshedding | Log as async action item; return to main agenda | | Role bleed (CFO making product calls) | Critic flags; exclude from synthesis | | Layer contamination | Phase 1 loads decisions.md only — hard rule | --- ## References - `templates/meeting-agenda.md` — agenda format - `templates/meeting-minutes.md` — final output format - `references/meeting-facilitation.md` — conflict handling, timing, failure modes
