Steelman the objection
Build the strongest honest version of the argument against your position, then separate what you can answer from what you cannot.
The prompt
Argue against my position. Make the objections as strong as an informed opponent would make them. My position: STATE IT. My reasoning: THE ACTUAL REASONS, including the weak ones. Who objects: WHO THEY ARE and what they are responsible for. Give me three or four objections, strongest first. For each one. The objection, in the objector's own likely words, one paragraph. What it rests on: a fact, a value, an incentive, or a past experience. Naming this matters, because a values objection does not yield to evidence. The best answer available from what I told you. If my material does not contain one, write NO ANSWER IN WHAT YOU GAVE ME. What evidence would actually settle it, if any would. Then one closing section: which objection has no good answer. Say it plainly. If I have a real weakness, tell me now rather than letting the room find it. Do not be polite about this, and do not manufacture a rebuttal I cannot support.
How to use it
Run this in Chat. It is a thinking tool, not a deliverable.
Use when you are about to present something and every objection in your head is an easy one.
Vibe prepares and drafts. You verify and decide. Ask for a citation on every finding: a confident answer is not evidence.
What you get back
Three or four strong objections ranked by strength, your available answers, and the ones with no good answer.
What it writes
Nothing. This one only answers.
