TOPIC: the debate topic/questionDOMAIN: detected domain (e.g., "distributed systems", "UX design")WORKSPACE_PATH: debate workspace directoryCLAUDE_POSITION (optional): for targeted critiqueWrite one persona per available challenger CLI:
| File | CLI | Archetype | Catches |
|---|---|---|---|
WORKSPACE_PATH/agy/GEMINI.md | agy (Gemini) | Architect | Over-engineering, scaling bottlenecks, complexity |
WORKSPACE_PATH/AGENTS.md | codex | Operator | Maintenance nightmares, failure modes, observability gaps |
WORKSPACE_PATH/QWEN.md | qwen | Adversary | Attack vectors, trust assumptions, edge cases |
Persona isolation: the agy persona lives in the agy/ subdir because agy reads GEMINI.md from CWD and could otherwise also ingest the workspace AGENTS.md (the Codex persona). The invoke script runs agy from that subdir.
Adapt archetypes to the domain:
| Domain | Architect → | Operator → | Adversary → |
|---|---|---|---|
| Backend systems | Systems architect | SRE/DevOps | Security researcher |
| Frontend/UX | Design systems lead | Practitioner | Accessibility expert |
| Data/ML | ML architect | MLOps engineer | Bias/ethics researcher |
| Business/Strategy | Industry analyst | Operations exec | Competitive strategist |
