Claude Octopus coordinates up to eight AI providers (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Qwen, Ollama, Perplexity, OpenRouter) on every task with consensus gates that flag disagreements between models. It functions as a Claude Code plugin, using Claude-native commands for simple tasks and escalating to multi-model workflows for adversarial review or stricter validation. The tool surfaces blindspots by comparing outputs across different AI providers, enabling developers to catch issues that any single model might miss.
