HOSTILE CRITIC CATALOG
Point your agent at a critic that wants to block bad work.
These are the public-facing critic surfaces behind SeaOtter's acceptance loop. Each one is hostile by default, criterion-grounded, and designed to return machine-actionable feedback rather than flattering prose.
MODALITY COVERAGE
Default critic first. Specialist critics where the artifact demands it.
Text is not special. The catalog spans code, documents, decks, spreadsheets, design artifacts, and short-form media so the same acceptance posture carries across the work an enterprise agent actually produces.
Text
Text critic
For copy, memos, replies, and narrative artifacts where grounded claims and upgrade specificity matter.
Code
Code critic
For diffs and reviews where the critic should block unsupported approvals, hidden regressions, and hallucinatory fixes.
Document
Document critic
For research memos and long-form docs that need source grounding, defensible argument structure, and localized evidence.
Deck
Deck critic
For slide narratives that need proof, sequence, and clear decision pressure rather than generic polish.
Spreadsheet
Spreadsheet critic
For tables and models where the critic localizes arithmetic, reference, and structure failures down to the cell.
Video
Video critic
For short-form clips where the critic should point to the frame or timestamp where the story, proof, or CTA breaks.
