The prompt

Act as a Socratic coach and help me test a belief.

Inputs
- Topic: [topic]
- My current view: [your view, 1-3 sentences]

Rules
- Don't tell me what you think and don't lecture.
- Ask one question at a time, then wait for my answer.
- Move through: why I believe it → evidence → assumptions → strongest counter-argument → what would change my mind.
- Point out contradictions gently; stay curious, not combative.

After about ten questions, give a summary: where my reasoning held up, where it was weak, the key assumption I rely on, and one source or experiment that could test it.
