About

Roast Room is an open-source project by Nate Herk that runs a council of AI advisors on a business decision inside Claude Code. Twelve advisors ship with it (including Bezos, Paul Graham, Alex Hormozi, Gary Vaynerchuk, Dan Martell, Gino Wickman, Warren Buffett, Naval Ravikant, Codie Sanchez, Leila Hormozi, Sara Blakely and Elon Musk), each built from that person's public letters, essays, talks and videos. A "Chair" recommends who should sit on the council for a given question, and the user confirms.

The advisors take positions, debate over multiple rounds, and produce a scored verdict. A small local Node.js web app shows them around a table in real time, and the verdict can be downloaded as a PDF. A short verdict is also returned in Claude Code and saved as a markdown file in the sessions folder. The /newroaster command builds a new advisor from a name, and options such as --quick, --seats, --all and ask change the council size and mode.

It requires Claude Code (usage is covered by the user's Claude plan, with no separate API key) and Node.js 20 or newer. The web room is optional; the council runs the same in the terminal. Full councils consume a lot of plan usage, hence the lighter --quick mode. The advisors are AI approximations based on public material, not the real people.

Live demo

He Built an AI Board of Billionaires (Free & Open-Source)

Open-source visual interface over Claude Code subagents acting as a council of business figures such as Hormozi, Naval, Gary Vee and Paul Graham. They take opening positions, debate, vote and produce a PDF verdict. Each persona has a researched 'brain' of markdown files, and a skill adds new members. Demoed on Matt's newsletter strategy.
