Multi-AI Orchestration
When to Use
Trigger conditions:
- Stuck after 2+ failed attempts
- Architecture decisions with multiple valid approaches
- Code review before major commits
- Debugging with no clear root cause
- Need validation from different reasoning styles
Quick Tools (Zero Setup)
| Tool | Models | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| chat.lmstudio.ai | Grok, Claude, Gemini, GPT-4o, Llama | Parallel responses in 10 seconds |
| poe.com Multi-bot | 10+ models | Custom chains (Claude → Grok → Gemini) |
| ChatHub extension | All major models | One browser tab, one hotkey |
Orchestration Patterns
Pattern 1: Parallel Fan-Out (Fastest)
When you need multiple perspectives quickly:
User problem → [Claude, Grok, Gemini] → Compare answers → Pick best
Use for: Architecture decisions, debugging hypotheses, API design choices
Pattern 2: Sequential Review Chain
When you need validation of work:
Claude writes code → Grok reviews → Gemini tests edge cases → Final version
Use for: Production code, critical bug fixes, security-sensitive changes
Pattern 3: Specialist Routing
Route based on problem type:
| Problem Type | Best Model |
|---|---|
| Complex reasoning | Claude, o1 |
| Code generation | Grok, Claude |
| Quick lookups/facts | Gemini, GPT-4o |
| Math/logic puzzles | o1, DeepSeek-R1 |
| Creative solutions | Claude, Grok |
Pattern 4: Debate Protocol
When models disagree:
- State the disagreement clearly
- Ask each model to steelman the other's position
- Ask for synthesis: "Given both perspectives, what's the best approach?"
- Human decides based on combined insight
Context Handoff Template
When passing context between models:
## Context
[Brief problem description - 2-3 sentences]
## What's Been Tried
- Approach 1: [result]
- Approach 2: [result]
## Current Best Hypothesis
[What the previous model concluded]
## What I Need From You
[Specific ask: validate, find holes, alternative approach, etc.]
Automation Options
10-minute setup:
- Poe.com custom multi-bot
- ChatHub browser extension
30-minute setup (fully automatic):
- LangGraph / CrewAI (Python)
- LazyLLM local orchestrator
Example CrewAI flow:
crew = Crew(
agents=[
Agent("Planner", model="grok"),
Agent("Coder", model="claude"),
Agent("Reviewer", model="gemini"),
Agent("Tester", model="gpt-4o")
],
process="sequential" # or "parallel"
)
Anti-Patterns
| Don't | Do Instead |
|---|---|
| Copy-paste everything manually | Use multi-chat tools |
| Ask same question to all models | Specialize the ask per model |
| Ignore disagreements | Use debate protocol |
| Over-orchestrate simple problems | Single model is fine for routine tasks |
When NOT to Use
- Simple, well-defined tasks
- Tasks one model handles confidently
- Time-sensitive with clear solution path
- Model-specific features (Claude artifacts, GPT DALL-E, etc.)
Integration with Other Skills
- systematic-debugging: Fan out hypotheses to multiple models
- react-architecture-enforcer: Get extraction plan validation
- brainstorming: Parallel ideation across models
- code-review: Multi-model review before merge
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
anchor-based-context-recovery
Use when starting work after context compaction, switching features, or gathering context without re-reading entire files - searches anchor tags to find relevant architecture/pattern documentation
us-tax-code
Complete US Internal Revenue Code (Title 26) with 2,160 sections covering individual income tax, business deductions, corporate tax, partnerships, international tax, capital gains, and all federal tax provisions. Search by section number or topic.
react-architecture-enforcer
Use when fixing bugs, something broken, not working, or doesn't work in React - also when adding features, request says "quick fix", "keep it simple", or "follow existing pattern"
obsidian-vault
Search, create, and manage notes in the Obsidian vault with wikilinks and index notes. Use when user wants to find, create, or organize notes in Obsidian.
edit-article
Edit and improve articles by restructuring sections, improving clarity, and tightening prose. Use when user wants to edit, revise, or improve an article draft.
handoff
Compact the current conversation into a handoff document for another agent to pick up.
