Keep the investigation and the judge's decision rigorous and
fact-based, but render everything shown to the owner — both debate
sides and the rationale — in plain language. ESCALATE now surfaces an
explicit For it / Against it / Judge's lean pair.
Parked P2/P3 technical items accumulate faster than I can judge their
necessity. /adjudicate runs a grounded per-item debate (investigator →
build/drop advocates → judge) over a repo's ROADMAP and routes each to
DROP / DO / ESCALATE, so I ratify decisions instead of researching them.
Recommend-only in v1; verdict autonomy is gated by blast radius, not
priority. ROADMAP-only input — nudges /triage rather than reading the
raw inbox.
