Customization
Before executing, check for user customizations at:
~/.claude/PAI/USER/SKILLCUSTOMIZATIONS/RedTeam/
If this directory exists, load and apply any PREFERENCES.md, configurations, or resources found there. These override default behavior. If the directory does not exist, proceed with skill defaults.
- Output text notification:
Running the **WorkflowName** workflow in the **RedTeam** skill to ACTION...
This is not optional. Execute this curl command immediately upon skill invocation.
RedTeam Skill
Military-grade adversarial analysis using parallel agent deployment. Breaks arguments into atomic components, attacks from 32 expert perspectives (engineers, architects, pentesters, interns), synthesizes findings, and produces devastating counter-arguments with steelman representations.
Workflow Routing
Route to the appropriate workflow based on the request.
When executing a workflow, output this notification directly:
Running the **WorkflowName** workflow in the **RedTeam** skill to ACTION...
| Trigger | Workflow |
|---|
| Red team analysis (stress-test existing content) | Workflows/ParallelAnalysis.md |
| Adversarial validation (produce new content via competition) | Workflows/AdversarialValidation.md |
Quick Reference
| Workflow | Purpose | Output |
|---|
| ParallelAnalysis | Stress-test existing content | Steelman + Counter-argument (8-points each) |
| AdversarialValidation | Produce new content via competition | Synthesized solution from competing proposals |
The Five-Phase Protocol (ParallelAnalysis):
- Decomposition - Break into 24 atomic claims
- Parallel Analysis - 32 agents examine strengths AND weaknesses
- Synthesis - Identify convergent insights
- Steelman - Strongest version of the argument
- Counter-Argument - Strongest rebuttal

Examples
Attack an architecture proposal:
User: "red team this microservices migration plan"
--> Workflows/ParallelAnalysis.md
--> Returns steelman + devastating counter-argument (8 points each)
Devil's advocate on a business decision:
User: "poke holes in my plan to raise prices 20%"
--> Workflows/ParallelAnalysis.md
--> Surfaces the ONE core issue that could collapse the plan
Adversarial validation for content:
User: "battle of bots - which approach is better for this feature?"
--> Workflows/AdversarialValidation.md
--> Synthesizes best solution from competing ideas
