Red-Team Your Design Before You Build

Have a critic argue your design is wrong, log every objection, and require evidence to close each one. Inspired by Forward Future's Loop Library.

Prompt

Step 1 — State the design
Write down the design you are about to commit to and the assumptions behind it.

Step 2 — Attack it
Ask the AI to play a skeptical critic and argue, with specifics, why this design will fail. Record every objection in a list.

Step 3 — Answer with evidence
For each objection, either fix the design or document why you accept the risk, backed by evidence, not hand-waving.

Step 4 — Close the loop
Have the critic reopen any answer that is unsupported. Stop only when no high-impact objection remains open.
