name: phone-opus
description: Use when you want a consultative Claude Code pass through the local `phone_opus` MCP server. Trigger for blocking second-opinion analysis, repository inspection, summaries, or planning where Claude should have read-only built-in tools but no edit capability.
---
# phone-opus
Use `phone_opus.consult` when you want a blocking Claude Code consult without edit permissions.
## When to use it
Whenever you're making a *major, nontrivial, high level* design decision, you should get a second opinion from Opus.
Opus is intelligent and has a different perspective, so takes its feedback seriously; but nothing it says
should be taken as authoritative or final. It is a pure consultant.
- Ask for a second opinion on code, architecture, debugging, or design.
- Point Claude at a specific repository with `cwd`.
- Cap the consultation with `max_turns` when needed.
- Reuse `session_id` from an earlier call when you want Claude to continue the same conversation.
## Tool surface
- `consult`
- required: `prompt`
- optional: `cwd`, `max_turns`, `session_id`, `render`, `detail`
- `health_snapshot`
- `telemetry_snapshot`
## Runtime posture
- Uses `--permission-mode dontAsk`, so only globally preapproved read-only Bash commands can execute.
- This surface is consultative only. Edit tools are unavailable.
- The returned `session_id` is reusable: pass it back into a later `consult` call to continue that Claude conversation.
## Example
Call `phone_opus.consult` with:
- `prompt`: `Inspect the Rust workspace and tell me where the retry logic is brittle.`
- `cwd`: `/absolute/path/to/repo`
- `max_turns`: `6`
Expect a blocking response containing Claude's answer plus execution metadata such as duration, turn count, session id, and cost when available.
