yogsoth-ai Multi-Perspective Attack
A structured approach to attacking a decision from multiple distinct viewpoints simultaneously. Each perspective brings different values, concerns, and failure modes — ensuring blind spots from any single viewpoint are exposed.
Stages
- Perspective Assignment — Define distinct perspectives with their values, concerns, and evaluation criteria
- Perspective Attack — Each perspective independently attacks the decision and proposes alternatives
- Steel-Manning Synthesis — Synthesize all attacks into a unified assessment with final verdict
Available SOPs
| SOP | Phase | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| perspective-assignment | Assign | Define perspective briefs |
| perspective-attack | Attack | Execute attack from each perspective |
| steel-manning-synthesis | Synthesize | Unify findings into verdict |
Execution Guidance
- Minimum 3 distinct perspectives (more for high-stakes decisions)
- Perspectives must be genuinely different (not variations of same viewpoint)
- Each perspective attacks independently before synthesis
- Synthesis must address every attack, not just convenient ones
- Final verdict must account for all perspectives, with explicit trade-off reasoning
Minimum Yield
= 3 perspective briefs with distinct values and concerns
- Independent attack from each perspective with constructive alternatives
- Synthesis across all attacks
- Final verdict (ACCEPT/REJECT/REVISE) with surviving concerns
- Recommended modifications addressing highest-severity cross-perspective concerns
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
