Configuration
Default settings
Define or remove the agents, number of turns, and summary used by default.
Default settings are used when you start a debate without specifying all agents or all options. They can be partial: you can define only the number of turns, only the summary, or a complete agent pair.
Set default agents
palabre config --set-defaults codex claude
After this command:
palabre -s "Critique this plan"
uses codex as agent A and claude as agent B.
Set the default summary
palabre config --summary-agent claude
If no summary agent is defined, Palabre uses agent B. To remove this setting without deleting the other default settings:
palabre config --summary-agent none
Set the number of turns
palabre config -t 4
turns is the total number of debate turns. Palabre accepts a value between 1 and 20.
Clear default settings
palabre config --clear-defaults
After that, use a preset or explicit agents:
palabre codex-claude "Subject" -t 4
palabre run --subject "Subject" --agent-a codex --agent-b claude
