Why is Anthropic listed as an excluded agent?

Because Claude (an Anthropic model) acts as the host agent, it is excluded from providing a 'second opinion' to ensure the feedback you receive comes from a different model architecture.

How do I update my API keys for different agents?

You can use the '/second-opinion setup' command to interactively add or update your API keys for OpenAI, Gemini, and other providers.

Where is the configuration data stored?

Configuration settings, including API keys and model preferences, are stored locally in the .claude/second-opinion.json file.

Does this skill work with GitHub CLI?

Yes, the skill automatically detects your GitHub CLI authentication token to determine if GitHub-hosted models are ready for use.

How do I check if my second-opinion agents are ready?

Simply invoke the skill by saying 'second opinion status' or 'show config' to see a detailed breakdown of all configured AI agents and their auth status.

Productivity & Workflow

Displays the current configuration and authentication status of multi-model AI agents for cross-checking code suggestions.

About

The Second Opinion Status skill provides immediate visibility into your multi-agent orchestration setup within Claude Code. It allows developers to quickly verify which external AI models—such as GPT-4o via OpenAI, Gemini, or GitHub models—are correctly configured and authenticated to provide secondary reviews. By analyzing local configuration files and GitHub CLI tokens, it ensures your workflow is ready to validate code through diverse model perspectives, preventing errors by ensuring you aren't inadvertently asking the host agent for its own critique.

Key Features

Verifies GitHub CLI (OAuth) and local configuration authentication status
Detects active configuration settings from .claude/second-opinion.json
0 GitHub stars
Displays a detailed status table of all available and excluded AI agents
Identifies model exclusions to prevent redundant host-agent self-critiques
Provides actionable instructions for updating API keys and model settings

Use Cases

Confirming which specific LLM models are currently active for the second-opinion workflow
Troubleshooting configuration issues with OpenAI, Gemini, or GitHub API integrations
Verifying that external AI agents are properly authenticated before requesting a cross-model code review
