Counterargument Capture Workflow

Capture objections, edge cases, and alternative framings before an idea graduates into a cleaner public narrative. It connects to note-to-proposal-converter, topic-drift-early-warning.

Working moves

• Treat counterarguments as first-class note objects so they remain attached to the idea instead of disappearing into comment threads.
• Record whether each objection was answered, deferred, or strong enough to reshape the original idea.
• Preserve the strongest unresolved objection when a draft goes public so readers can see the real tradeoffs.

Why it matters

This workflow keeps group thinking honest and makes polished public ideas feel more trustworthy because the tension is not hidden.
