Multiple Advisors
=================
Give the agent several advisors, each with a description of what it is good
at. The agent can pick the right advisor for the question with `ask_advisor`,
or poll all of them at once with `ask_all_advisors`.

This is useful when you want diverse perspectives:
- Different models have different strengths and biases
- Consensus across advisors increases confidence
- Disagreements highlight areas that need attention
