debate-hall

The debate-hall skill serves as an orchestration router for structured debates, designed to route tasks to specialized debate skills based on the nature of the inquiry. It addresses the challenge of managing multi-perspective discussions by organizing interactions through defined debate positions—Wind, Wall, and Door—which correspond to different cognition modes (Pathos, Ethos, Logos). This structured approach ensures that debates are both comprehensive and balanced, allowing for nuanced decision-making while maintaining clarity and order in multi-agent discussions.

Key features of the debate-hall skill include automatic and manual routing to specific sub-skills depending on the type of debate interaction required. Automated debates handle tasks such as running, resolving, and resuming debates with minimal user intervention, while manual control enables turn-by-turn orchestration with options to add turns, pick speakers, and manage debate flow. The skill also integrates administrative and GitHub operations, allowing actions like force-closing debates, synchronizing discussions with repositories, and ratifying decisions. Additionally, it provides gravity mapping to classify debate impacts as low, medium, or high, influencing how decisions are explored and applied. Resources such as agent configurations, tier definitions, debate patterns, and architectural decision records support its functionality and maintainability.

Typical use cases for debate-hall include facilitating internal team discussions, structuring multi-agent decision-making processes, and supporting collaborative evaluation of complex questions across multiple perspectives. Target users are teams or organizations seeking a disciplined method for structured debates, AI developers implementing multi-agent orchestration, and administrators managing debate workflows. By combining position, cognition, and role-based expertise, debate-hall ensures that discussions are thorough, systematically organized, and adaptable to both exploratory and production-level decision-making contexts.
