dialectic

dialectic is a plugin for Claude Code from urav06/dialectic. Its manifest loads nothing; the 1 skill, 3 commands, 2 agents it bundles cost 94 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, MIT.

A system for running structured debates between AI agents using the Toulmin framework, a method for organizing claims, evidence, reasoning, and challenges. It can create debate topics and produce reports with argument diagrams.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set a motion, run several rounds of debate between agents, and review the resulting arguments in a report or visualization.
Why use it?
It gives AI discussions a consistent structure so the claims and supporting reasons can be examined instead of receiving an unorganized exchange of opinions.

Security

Grade A, and why

dialectic scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill, 3 commands, 2 agents travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 94 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
