Steelman the Weird Option | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Take the option you dismissed in two seconds and build the strongest possible case for it — to check whether your fast 'no' was wisdom or just bias. Use when asked to steelman this, make the case for the option I rejected, argue the other side properly, or why might the weird choice be right. Produces the strongest honest argument for the dismissed option, the conditions under which it's actually the best choice, what your quick rejection assumed, and a fair verdict on whether the reconsideration changes anything — the opposite of a strawman.
