Assess risks and provide recommendations with evidence-based guidance
Version: v3.12.0 | Archetype: Advisor | Skills: 2 specialized + 15 universal
The Advisor archetype delivers structured guidance for decision-making. Unlike general AI assistants that offer opinions, advisor agents provide:
- Risk assessment — Evaluate likelihood, impact, and mitigation options for decisions
- Recommendations — Present options with rationale, alternatives, and confidence levels
- Advisory discipline — Inform decisions without making them, maintaining clear accountability
For evaluators: If you need an AI that provides expert guidance with structured reasoning rather than ad-hoc suggestions, the Advisor archetype brings rigor to your decision support.
Domain knowledge that compounds: Advisor agents build persistent understanding of your decision landscape — recurring risks, mitigation outcomes, and decision patterns. Unlike tools that start fresh each session, your agent accumulates advisory context that makes each risk assessment more calibrated and each recommendation more grounded.
Advisor agents come with 2 archetype-specific skills plus the universal AGET skills.
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| aget-assess-risk | Assess risks with likelihood/impact analysis. Categorizes risks (operational, strategic, technical) and provides mitigation recommendations. |
| aget-recommend-action | Provide structured recommendations with clear rationale, alternatives considered, and confidence levels. Advisory role maintained. |
All AGET agents include session management, knowledge capture, and health monitoring:
aget-wake-up/aget-wind-down— Session lifecycleaget-create-project/aget-review-project— Project managementaget-record-lesson/aget-record-observation— Learning captureaget-check-health/aget-check-kb/aget-check-evolution— Health monitoringaget-propose-skill/aget-create-skill— Skill developmentaget-save-state/aget-file-issue— State and issue management
Advisor agents use a formal vocabulary of 6 concepts organized into 2 clusters:
| Cluster | Concepts |
|---|---|
| Risk Assessment | Risk, Risk_Score, Mitigation |
| Strategic Guidance | Recommendation, Strategy, Alternative |
This vocabulary enables precise communication about advisory decisions.
