Claude Octopus

Run up to 8 models in parallel on the same task; surface where they disagree — that's where your blindspot is.
Octopus is a multi-model orchestration skill: define a task, it dispatches to N model providers, then highlights consensus and disagreement. Useful for research, design review, and plan critique where one model can have a confident-but-wrong opinion.
