Every morning the council of seven philosophers argues one real dilemma. You give the verdict.
Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, Zeno, Cato, Diogenes and Epicurus take a case from ordinary life — the money, the friend, the job, the parent — and argue it properly, with real citations you can tap. They do not agree. You pick a side, write a sentence or five, and seal your verdict into your Record.
The next morning your mentor writes back. One letter, sealed, about what you decided — not a chatbot, not a quote of the day. Break the seal, read, reply if you like.
THE DAILY CASE
• One dilemma a day, edited by hand, argued by three of the seven.
• Six turns, two rounds, and a real split — the voices cite their own works.
• Who's right? Pick a side. Write your verdict. Seal it.
• A Record of every verdict you have sealed, in your own words.
• Your mentor's morning letter, written to yesterday's verdict.
SHARE THE CARD
Your verdict seals into a card — the question, the two sides, their sources. Share it as a picture or a link; the page lets anyone vote on the split before they install. Your own words stay off the card unless you say so.

• Siri and Shortcuts: "Ask the council", "Yesterday's verdict".
