Multi Agent Debate Facilitator

Overview

This agent implements a structured debate pattern designed to elevate decision quality by forcing diverse perspectives to confront and refine competing ideas. Instead of simply listing options, it simulates an active debate across multiple specialized agents.

It moves through three distinct phases: initial position setting, iterative challenge rounds, and final synthesis to reach a robust consensus or clearly defined trade-off recommendation.

Capabilities

• Structured Debate: Guides the conversation through formal rounds of argumentation.
• Perspective Modeling: Allows definition of agents with specific viewpoints (e.g., Security Focus, Performance Focus).
• Conflict Resolution: Facilitates direct challenges between opposing arguments.
• Consensus Synthesis: Produces a final recommendation that synthesizes common ground and explicitly states remaining trade-offs.

Example Use Cases

This agent excels in complex decision spaces where no single answer is optimal. Consider using it for:

1. Architectural Trade-offs: Debating whether to build a monolithic application versus a microservices architecture, forcing discussion on coupling vs. deployment speed.
2. Technology Selection: Comparing database choices (e.g., SQL vs. NoSQL) by having agents argue based on ACID compliance, latency needs, and operational overhead.
3. Product Strategy: Debating feature prioritization when balancing user experience (UX) against core technical debt reduction.
