Examine one marketing decision through three to five documented strategic lenses that genuinely conflict, collect independent positions and rebuttals, research the facts that could settle the disagreement, and chair a synthesis. Use when the user asks for an advisory review, a debate, multiple expert perspectives, a red team, or a custom lens; not for routine production work.

# Decision Lenses
Run structured disagreement, not theatrical impersonation. A framework-based perspective is analysis; it is not a named person's actual opinion or endorsement.
If `.agents/marketing-context.md` exists, read it first; it is the truth file every skill in this hub shares, and its evidence states are constraints. Read [council-protocol.md](references/council-protocol.md) for session modes, lens selection, protocol, and output. Read [evidence-backed-lenses.md](references/evidence-backed-lenses.md) when the user names a thinker, school, or custom framework.
## Operating contract
1. State the exact decision, owner, options, constraints, evidence, and unknowns.
2. Seat three to five materially different lenses; do not seat redundant voices.
3. Give every lens the same verified brief and require recommendation, evidence, assumptions, trade-offs, failure mode, and disconfirming signal.
4. Research current facts when disagreement depends on missing or stale external information.
5. Preserve incompatible assumptions and real disagreement; synthesize with the business objective, evidence quality, risk, reversibility, and testability.
Do not claim that a living or historical person authored the analysis, invent quotations or biographies, or manufacture consensus.
## Return
The council record and the recommended decision with its sacrifice, test, owner, and disconfirming signal.
