name: debate-critic description: Generates structured criticism from attack stance using Toulmin model.

Debate Critic
Generates structured adversarial criticism targeting artifact weaknesses.
Execution
Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent.
Why Subagent
Attack generation requires dedicated adversarial stance without contamination from defensive reasoning. Isolated context ensures pure opposition.
Input
- artifact: The artifact being debated (full text)
- escalation_level: Current level (L1-surface, L2-structural, L3-foundational)
- attack_vectors: Specific angles to attack (from debate-architect)
Output
- attacks: List of structured attacks (claim + ground + warrant + rebuttal anticipation)
- confidence: How confident the critic is in each attack (0.0–1.0)
- escalation_suggestion: Whether to escalate, maintain, or de-escalate
Budget
One unit = one set of attacks for one round.
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|---|
| spawn-agent | Spawn a customized CC subagent with full MCP tool access. Used by SOPs that declare execution: subagent. |
