Use with AI
Ask the model to challenge the frame, not decorate it.
Prompt: “Review this decision without choosing for me. Restate my criteria, show the strongest case against my preferred option, identify missing evidence, flag possible anchors or sunk costs, and finish with the smallest next test that would reduce uncertainty.”
The goal is not forced disagreement. It is to make assumptions, alternatives and evidence visible before the recommendation feels inevitable.
