Debate Judge
Evaluates exchanges and produces round verdicts.
Execution
Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent.
Why Subagent
Judgment requires neutral stance isolated from both attack and defense reasoning. Dedicated context prevents bias from prior participation.
Input
- attacks: Structured attacks from debate-critic
- defenses: Structured defenses from debate-defender
- round_number: Current round in the debate
- judging_criteria: Specific criteria for this debate type
Output
- round_verdict: Which side prevailed this round (critic/defender/draw)
- scores: Per-attack scoring (attack quality, defense quality, net result)
- confidence: Judge's confidence in artifact viability (0.0–1.0)
- key_findings: Most important insights from this round
Budget
One unit = one round verdict.
