# deliberate

Run an adversarial deliberation on a decision. Multiple AI perspectives argue opposing positions over multiple rounds, iteratively strengthening arguments, and converge on a recommendation with confidence scoring. Use for important decisions where you want to stress-test options from multiple angles. Over MCP the deliberation runs in the background: the first call returns a run_id immediately; call deliberate again with { run_id } (plus the same companyId) after ~1-2 minutes to fetch the result. Routing: Important decision → deliberate for adversarial analysis

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `run_id` | string | no | Poll a background deliberation started earlier (MCP mode). Pass the run_id returned by the starting call, with the same companyId. Omit question/positions when |
| `context` | string | no | Goals, constraints, values, and relevant data that should inform the deliberation. The more context, the better the arguments. |
| `criteria` | array | no | Optional weighted evaluation criteria. Each item should have "name" (string) and "weight" (number 0-1, should sum to ~1). If omitted, defaults are generated. |
| `question` | string | no | The decision or question to deliberate. Be specific — e.g., "Should we invest in mobile app development or API partnerships for growth in Q2?" Required unless p |
| `companyId` | string | no | FreedomOS company id to act within (you must be a member). Required for company-scoped tools. |
| `positions` | array | no | Two or more positions to argue. Each should be a clear, distinct option — e.g., ["Mobile app development", "API partnerships", "Content marketing"]. Required un |
| `max_rounds` | number | no | Maximum rounds of deliberation (default: 5). More rounds = better arguments but more compute. |

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "deliberate",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why deliberate is rated High

While the tool does not modify data directly (ruling out Write/Destructive) nor move money (ruling out Financial), it executes a complex external operation—spawning background deliberation processes with AI agents that analyze and influence decision-making.

From the tool's own definition: "'Run an adversarial deliberation on a decision' and 'call deliberate again with { run_id }' indicate the tool executes a background computational process that performs analysis and generates recommendations based on decision inputs."

## Use case

AI agents invoke deliberate to trigger actions in Freedom Mcp. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Freedom Mcp:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "deliberate": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "deliberate_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
