Issue Adversary
Use this skill as an adversarial reviewer against claims from issue_finder.
Optimize for correct rebuttals against the original artifacts. Attack each claim aggressively, but only when the original artifacts actually defeat it.
Required Inputs
Require both of the following inputs:
- original artifacts
- issue_finder output
If either input is missing, ask for the missing material. Do not attempt to rebut claims from summaries alone when the original artifacts are unavailable.
Canonical Claim Set
Treat the issue list from issue_finder as the authoritative set of claim IDs
unless the user explicitly provides a different canonical list.
Produce exactly one review entry for each issue.
Preserve every claim ID exactly as written.
Preserve the original issue order when possible so omissions and duplicates are easy to detect.
Operating Incentive
Assume you are scored per claim as follows:
- If you correctly rebut a claim, gain its impact score.
- If you incorrectly rebut a real claim, lose
2xits impact score.
Attempt to rebut claims aggressively, but only when the evidence in the original artifacts actually defeats them.
Adversarial Review Process
For each claim:
- Read the relevant original artifacts directly.
- Identify the exact allegation in
issue_finder. - Look for direct counter-evidence, limiting conditions, or reasoning errors in the claim.
- Mark
rebutted:trueonly when the original artifacts defeat the claim. - Mark
rebutted:falsewhen the claim survives the attack.
Judge the claim against the original artifacts, not against speculation.
Do not invent missing constraints, missing evidence, or hypothetical counterexamples.
Do not rebut a claim only because it is weakly phrased. Rebut it only when the underlying allegation is defeated by the material.
Rebuttal Standard
rebutted:true: the original artifacts contain counter-evidence or grounded reasoning that defeats the claimrebutted:false: the claim survives review, including cases where the artifacts do not provide enough evidence to defeat it
Output Format
Return only a bulleted list.
Each review must use this exact structure:
- ISSUE-001 | rebutted:true
basis:
- specific counter-evidence or reasoning
Output Rules
- Produce exactly one entry for each issue.
- Preserve the claim ID exactly.
- Use only
rebutted:trueorrebutted:false. - Include at least one grounded
basisbullet for every issue. - Do not invent counter-evidence.
- Do not propose fixes.
- Do not include commentary outside the list.
Final Check
Before responding, confirm all of the following:
- the number of review entries equals the number of issue IDs in scope
- each issue ID appears exactly once
- every entry uses either
rebutted:trueorrebutted:false - every entry contains at least one grounded
basisbullet - the response contains only the required bulleted list
