Devil's Advocate Install Guide
This Devil's Advocate, made by Cyberlytics, pushes back on your plans, product specs and claims that something is finished before you commit to them. The criticism is meant to be sharp but useful: it names the biggest real risk and suggests a stronger alternative rather than listing every possible worry.
It only gives advice and never edits your work, so it is safe to point at drafts and shared documents. Small teams often agree too quickly because nobody wants to slow things down, and a dedicated contrary voice fills that gap. Another bot on this site, made by Melvin Vivas, is also called Devil's Advocate, so check the creator before adding.
It suits founders and small teams making decisions without a board or senior reviewer. Share the plan along with your goal and deadline, ask for the single biggest risk first and decide in writing whether you accept the risk or change course, so the pushback leads somewhere.
