Agent Skills: narrative-opposition-web

Builds a four-corner opposition web for narrative nonfiction and stops the writer from casting whoever lost as the villain. Runs Truby's four-corner worksheet (shared central moral problem, per-corner value clusters, distinct routes of attack, corner-to-corner conflict), the best-possible-opponent audit (same goal, necessity, relentlessness, value conflict, the double, power parity, justification in the opponent's own voice), the Opponent Warrant evidence test that demotes undocumented antagonists to rivals or constraints, and a drive-section collapse check that catches a web that was decorative. Use when planning a piece with competing parties, when an antagonist feels flat or cartoonish, when the protagonist is a system rather than a person, or when user mentions opposition web, four-corner opposition, antagonist, opponent, villain, steelman the other side, character web, who is the bad guy here.
