argument-analysis

Argument analysis systematically maps claims, evidence, and warrants to expose gaps in logic. This Skill uses the Claim-Evidence-Warrant framework to evaluate whether supporting evidence actually justifies the main claim, revealing where reasoning breaks down and how to strengthen it.

The CEW framework structures arguments into three components: the claim you're making, evidence supporting it, and the warrant—the logical bridge connecting them. Mapping these reveals missing connections, insufficient evidence, or unstated assumptions, letting you build more persuasive and logically sound arguments.

Yes. This Skill analyzes arguments across essays, debates, speeches, and policy proposals. It identifies gaps, assesses evidence quality, generates counterarguments, and provides structured recommendations to strengthen reasoning in any persuasive context.

Steel-manning—constructing the strongest opposing argument—tests your reasoning's resilience. This Skill generates counterarguments by identifying weak points in your evidence and warrants, showing you where alternative interpretations exist and how to address them preemptively.

Evidence quality depends on type, relevance, and sufficiency. This Skill evaluates whether your evidence directly supports the claim, relies on credible sources, and provides enough proof. Weak evidence fails one or more criteria, creating gaps the warrant cannot bridge.

No. This Skill provides step-by-step guided analysis that maps arguments visually and identifies gaps without requiring formal training. It translates logical principles into actionable feedback on improving claims, evidence, and reasoning connections.
