| name | resume-debate |
| description | Structured 3-round debate about a single resume bullet. Runs hiring-manager, bar-raiser, and future-self-skeptic through opening critique, rebuttal, and rewrite rounds. Produces either a consensus rewrite or an articulated disagreement for the user to adjudicate. Accepts either the bullet text or a line number as $ARGUMENTS. Use when the user is uncertain about a specific bullet, asks "is this bullet good?", wants multiple perspectives on one line, or says a reviewer flagged a specific bullet. |

Bullet Debate
Orchestrate a 3-round structured debate between three personas about a single resume bullet, then synthesize the result.
Process
-
Resolve the bullet. If $ARGUMENTS is a line number (e.g., 34, line 34), read will_cygan_resume.typ and extract that line. If it's a full bullet text, use it directly. If $ARGUMENTS is empty, use AskUserQuestion to prompt for either a line number or the bullet text.
-
Run the 3 rounds. Each round is a single parallel Agent tool message with 3 calls (one per persona). See REFERENCE.md ยง Round Protocol for the exact prompts to send at each round. Rounds are sequential โ round 2 depends on round 1's output, round 3 depends on rounds 1 and 2.
-
Synthesize. Compare the 3 candidate rewrites from round 3. Apply the synthesis rules in REFERENCE.md ยง Synthesis Rules.
-
Report. Use the output format in REFERENCE.md ยง Output Format.
Agent teams note
If the user wants the three personas to truly argue in real time via SendMessage (rather than sequential rounds), that requires setting CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS and using TeamCreate. The default here is the sequential sub-agent approach โ it works today, is deterministic, and produces the same debate structure.
Notes
- Full disagreement is a valid outcome. If the three personas cannot converge after round 3, present all three rewrites side-by-side and let the user decide. Do not force consensus.
- Keep each round's prompts terse. Long prompts lead to long sub-agent responses that dilute the debate.
See REFERENCE.md for the round protocol, synthesis rules, and output template.
