What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you diagnose why your argument isn’t landing and repair it by making the warrant explicit, auditing evidence-to-claim fit, and strengthening the response to the strongest counterargument.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Argument audit for missing logic: Surfaces the unstated warrant that connects evidence to your claim so readers can’t reject your conclusion for different assumptions.
  • Evidence quality review: Checks sufficiency, credibility, relevance, and whether evidence actually supports the specific claim (not just the topic).
  • Counterargument and rhetorical-substitute detection: Identifies the best objection, verifies whether it’s addressed honestly, and flags appeals (authority/emotion/repetition) that may be substituting for reasoning.

Example: If your op-ed claims “policy X will improve outcomes” but readers say “your evidence doesn’t justify that conclusion,” this Skill reconstructs a stronger version of the argument with an explicit warrant and better counterargument coverage.
