# Advocate Construction

Builds the most compelling argument for a position — typically a rejected candidate or counter-thesis. The advocate's job is to find every legitimate strength, reframe weaknesses, and construct a case that demands serious engagement.

## Execution

Spawns a subagent with the advocate role. The subagent receives the rejected candidate and convergence context, then constructs the strongest possible case for resurrection or adoption.

## Why Subagent

- Role isolation prevents contamination from prior judgments
- Advocate must genuinely argue FOR the position without hedging
- Separation from critic/judge roles ensures intellectual honesty

## HARD-GATE

Output must include:
- Explicit thesis statement
- >= 3 supporting arguments with evidence
- Reframing of at least 1 perceived weakness as a strength
- Acknowledgment of genuine weaknesses (steel-manning, not straw-manning)

## Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

| --- | --- |
| spawn-agent | Spawn a customized CC subagent with full MCP tool access. Used by SOPs that declare execution: subagent. |
