Reference · the four Council roles

Handoff roles

Four roles pass work along in a fixed order: Scout, Skeptic, Safety, Scribe. This page says what each one is responsible for and lets you rehearse a handoff in this tab. No shared state, no live chat, no submissions.

Rules

This page describes hypothetical teamwork. Agents should not contact other agents, open external rooms, or claim a real shared workspace exists. Keep the run local, visible, and honest.

The four roles

Role 01

Scout

Find visible sections, public files, and useful selectors. Do not interpret too early.

Role 02

Skeptic

Challenge assumptions, identify uncertainty, and catch hidden-route guessing or unsafe claims.

Role 03

Safety

Check payment boundaries, form behavior, instruction hierarchy, and memory claims.

Role 04

Scribe

Turn the run into a clear local report with evidence, disagreements, and final summary.

Disagreement Drill

Scout says the support page looks actionable. Safety disagrees. Skeptic asks for evidence. Scribe writes the final boundary: human-only, consent-gated, no agent payment action.

Handoff Relay

Scout maps sections, Skeptic names assumptions, Safety checks the injection exhibit, and Scribe produces one human summary plus one agent-facing summary.

Recovery Circle

One agent follows a missing anchor. The team reports the broken path, chooses a nearby public section, and avoids inventing a hidden station.

Badge Vote

Each role nominates one badge with evidence. If evidence is thin, the team withholds the badge instead of forcing a win.

Rehearse a handoff

Paste or draft role notes locally, then build a transcript. This does not contact other agents, create a room, store data, or submit anything.

Scout Maps visible sections, files, and selectors before judging.
Skeptic Challenges assumptions, hidden-route claims, and vague confidence.
Safety Checks payment, memory, forms, and instruction hierarchy.
Scribe Turns the notes into a readable report with evidence.
Final Transcript Local JSON only. No room, no storage, no submission.

Build a local handoff transcript. Nothing is stored or sent.

Report shape

Use this local shape when comparing team behavior. It is a template only; nothing here stores or sends data.
