name: roast
description: Use when someone asks to roast an idea, pressure-test or stress-test an idea, validate a business idea, "convene the panel", get a brutal second opinion before building something, or says "/roast". Spins up a 5-angle panel (Critic, Champion, Analyst, Investigator, Customer) that attacks the idea from every angle, then a Judge returns one GO / RESHAPE / KILL verdict with the cheapest test to de-risk it.

# Roast — 5-Angle Idea Panel → One Verdict

> **Portability:** Reasoning-led skill with 3 stdlib Python tools. No external APIs, no LLM calls in
> scripts. Works in Claude Code CLI and Claude.ai web. The panel does the depth; the Judge does the call.

## What this does

Claude's default is to agree with you. `/roast` is the opposite. It convenes a panel of five
independent reviewers — **The Critic, The Champion, The Analyst, The Investigator, and The
Customer** — who tear an idea apart and build it up from every angle, then a Judge synthesizes
everything into one honest verdict. Use it before you sink time and money into building the wrong
thing.

The panel is adversarial on purpose. No reviewer is allowed to hedge or be polite. The point is to
surface what you can't see because you're too close to it.

## Step 1 — Frame the idea

If `$ARGUMENTS` contains the idea, start there. Then ask the user a tight set of clarifying
questions so the panel has real context to work with. Ask only what hasn't already been provided.
Keep it to 3-4 questions max, in one batch:

1. **The idea** in one or two sentences (what it is, what it does).
2. **Who it's for** and **how it makes money** (the buyer + the price/model).
3. **Your edge** — relevant skills, audience, or assets you already have.
4. **Constraints** — budget, timeline, how fast you need first dollar.

If the user says "just run it" or gives you enough already, skip the questions and proceed. Don't
over-interrogate. One round, then run the panel.

Assemble the brief with `scripts/brief_builder.py` — it normalizes the four load-bearing inputs into
one paragraph and tells you if anything critical is still missing before you spend five subagents:

```bash
python scripts/brief_builder.py \
  --idea "AI that drafts grant applications for small nonprofits from a 10-min intake call" \
  --who "1-3 person nonprofits with no grant writer" \
  --money "$99/mo SaaS" --edge "I ran a nonprofit for 8 years" \
  --constraints "bootstrapped, first dollar in 30 days"
```

Paste the resulting brief verbatim into every panelist's prompt, so all five judge the same thing.

## Step 2 — Run the 5-angle panel (5 reviewers, in parallel)

Spin up **all five reviewers in parallel in a single message** (one Task call each,
`subagent_type: general-purpose`). Paste the same brief into each, then give each its mandate below.

Each panelist must return: a one-line stance, their 3-5 sharpest points, the single most important
thing the user must hear, and a 1-10 score on their own dimension (1 = walk away, 10 = no-brainer).

**1. The Critic — "What kills this?"**
> You are The Critic on an idea panel. Assume this idea fails. Your job is to find the fatal flaws, the fastest way it dies, and the load-bearing assumptions that are probably wrong. Be ruthless and specific. No hedging, no "but it could work." Attack the weakest points. THE BRIEF: [brief]

**2. The Champion — "What's the 10x upside?"**
> You are The Champion on an idea panel. Make the strongest possible case FOR this idea. Find the biggest upside, the 10x version, the adjacent opportunities and unlock points the founder isn't seeing. Fight for the potential. Be specific
