Debate Defender

Responds to structured attacks with counter-evidence and rebuttals.

Execution

Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent.

Why Subagent

Defense requires dedicated advocacy stance. Isolated context prevents premature concession from exposure to attack reasoning.

Input

• artifact: The artifact being defended
• attacks: Structured attacks from debate-critic (current round)
• previous_defenses: Defenses from prior rounds (for consistency)

Output

• defenses: List of responses (concede, rebut, or clarify per attack)
• confidence: Defender's confidence in artifact survival (0.0–1.0)
• concessions: Any points conceded as valid weaknesses

Budget

One unit = one set of defenses for one round of attacks.

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.
