yogsoth-ai Devil's Advocacy
Constructs the strongest possible case against a given position or assumption.
Execution

Why Subagent
Devil's advocacy requires full commitment to the opposing position. The agent must genuinely argue against the position without hedging or pulling punches.
Input
- position: The position or assumption to argue against
- context: Surrounding context (artifact, domain, prior findings)
Output
- counter_argument: The strongest case against the position
- evidence: Supporting evidence for the counter-argument
- confidence: How strong the counter-argument actually is (0.0-1.0)
- fatal_if_true: Whether the counter-argument would be fatal to the artifact
