Red Teaming

Chapter: Chapter 1 — Foundational Concepts Command: /redteam challenge

A structured cognitive approach that challenges plans and decisions to surface hidden risks, unseen options, and flawed assumptions before commitment.

When a plan, strategy, policy, or decision is approaching commitment and has not been independently challenged.

  1. Clarify the decision and stakes.
  2. Assign loyal opposition.
  3. Select techniques matched to time available.
  4. Surface assumptions, alternatives, and failure modes.
  5. Inform decision-makers without owning the outcome.
