Decision-debate (MEL/SRHR)

A formal debate that brings independent perspectives TO Ane on one contested MEL/SRHR design call. It operationalises the CLAUDE.md three-perspective rule: several agents research the same decision from different lenses, argue once, and the result is synthesised for Ane to decide on. It decides nothing itself.

Lane — when this skill, not another

The grill family differs by direction, not topic:

• decision-debate (this): brings perspectives to Ane. Independent agents research and argue a contested call Ane did not answer herself. Use only when the answer is genuinely uncertain and reasonable experts would disagree.
• /grill-mel: pulls from Ane. Interviews her one question at a time to sharpen a design she already leans on.
• brainstorming (superpowers): for net-new builds headed to a code spec.

Reserved for genuine, consequential, contested decisions. Never for building. If the answer is already known, use /grill-mel or /ann. If the task is to produce a deliverable, use /ann.

Gate before running

Confirm two things before spawning agents, because this is token-heavy:

1. The decision is genuinely contested (reasonable experts would split), not just unfamiliar to Ane.
2. It is a decision, not a build or a deliverable.
