Reference implementations and specifications of consensus protocols

509 stars

Best use case

consensus-protocol-library is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Reference implementations and specifications of consensus protocols

Teams using consensus-protocol-library should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.

When to use this skill

  • You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.

When not to use this skill

  • You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
  • You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Consensus Protocol Library

## Purpose

Provides expert guidance on consensus protocol design, analysis, and implementation for distributed systems.

## Capabilities

- Paxos, Raft, PBFT specifications
- Protocol comparison matrix
- Safety/liveness property templates
- Message complexity analysis
- Protocol variant catalog
- Failure mode analysis

## Usage Guidelines

1. **Protocol Selection**: Choose appropriate consensus protocol
2. **Specification Review**: Understand protocol specification
3. **Property Verification**: Verify safety and liveness
4. **Comparison**: Compare protocols for use case
5. **Implementation**: Guide implementation decisions

## Tools/Libraries

- TLA+ specifications
- Reference implementations
- Protocol documentation
