## What is Polydev?
Polydev lets you consult multiple AI models simultaneously when you're stuck on bugs, making architecture decisions, or reviewing code. Different models catch different things - combining their perspectives eliminates blind spots.
**Stop copy-pasting your code into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok...** Get all their perspectives in your IDE with one request.
**Research**: Achieved 74.6% on SWE-bench Verified, matching Claude Opus at 62% lower cost.
## Installation
```bash

## Usage
### Slash Commands
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/perspectives` | Get multi-model perspectives on current problem |
| `/polydev-help` | Show setup guide |
### Natural Language
Just ask Claude - it will automatically invoke Polydev when appropriate:
```
"I'm stuck on this authentication bug. Get different perspectives."
"Should I use Redis or PostgreSQL for session storage?"
"Review this API endpoint for security issues using polydev."
```
### Auto-Invocation
The plugin automatically triggers multi-model consultation when you:
- Say you're "stuck" or "confused"
- Ask comparison questions ("Should I use X or Y?")
- Request code reviews or security checks
- Have multiple failed debugging attempts
## Models Available
Polydev queries multiple leading AI models simultaneously:
| Model | Provider |
|-------|----------|
| Claude | Anthropic |
| GPT | OpenAI |
| Gemini | Google |
| Grok | xAI |
| Z AI | Zhipu |
## Example Output
```
π€ Multi-Model Analysis
Claude's Perspective:
The N+1 query pattern here is causing performance issues...
GPT's Perspective:
The infinite re-render is likely caused by object recreation in deps array...
Gemini's Perspective:
Check for setState calls directly in the component body...
Grok's Perspective:
Consider using useCallback for function dependencies...
β
Consensus: All models agree the issue is in the dependency array
π‘ Recommendation: Use useMemo/useCallback for object/function deps
