+
+# Create New Debate
+
+## Step 1: Motion
+
+"**What's your debate motion?**
+
+You can write it in any of these formats:
+
+**Formal styles:**
+- `This house believes that` [proposition] — British Parliamentary
+- `This house would` [action] — Policy debate
+- `Resolved:` [statement] — American Parliamentary
+
+**Or state it directly** (we'll keep it as-is)
+
+Your motion:"
+
+## Step 2: Slug
+
+**If `$1` argument provided:**
+1. Use `$1` as the slug
+2. Validate format (lowercase, numbers, hyphens only)
+3. Check it doesn't exist as a directory
+4. If valid: skip to Step 3
+5. If invalid format: explain requirements and ask for new slug
+6. If exists: list existing debates and ask for different name
+
+**If no argument provided:**
+1. After receiving motion, auto-generate 2-3 slug suggestions from motion keywords
+2. Present: "Suggested slugs:
+   1. [auto-generated-1]
+   2. [auto-generated-2]
+   3. [auto-generated-3]
+
+   Pick a number, or type your own (lowercase, hyphens only):"
+3. Validate chosen/custom slug:
+   - Check format (lowercase, numbers, hyphens only)
+   - Check doesn't exist as a directory
+   - If format invalid: explain and ask again
+   - If exists: list existing debates and ask for different name
+
+## Step 3: Definitions & Scope (Optional)
+
+"**Optional refinements:**
+
+Type 'definitions' to define key terms, 'scope' to set debate focus, or 'skip' to continue:"
+
+**If user types 'definitions':**
+- Suggest 2-3 key terms from the motion that might need defining
+- For each term: "Define '[term]':" (record definition)
+
+**If user types 'scope':**
+- Ask: "Specify the debate's scope or focus:"
+- Record scope
+
+**If user types 'skip':**
+- Proceed to creation
+
+## Step 4: Create Debate
+
+Once all information is gathered:
+
+1. Create directory: `{slug}/`
+2. Create `{slug}/arguments/` directory
+3. Create `{slug}/debate.md` with JSON frontmatter:
+
+```markdown
+{
+  "debate_id": "{slug}",
+  "current_exchange": 0,
+  "current_phase": "awaiting_arguments",
+  "cumulative_scores": {
+    "proposition": {"total": 0, "count": 0},
+    "opposition": {"total": 0, "count": 0}
+  }
+}
+
+# Motion
+
+{formalized motion}
+
+## Definitions
+
+{if any definitions were provided:}
+- **{term}**: {definition}
+
+## Scope
+
+{scope if provided}
+```
+
+4. Create `{slug}/scores.json`:
+
+```json
+{}
+```
+
+5. Confirm to user:
+
+"✓ Debate '{slug}' created successfully!
+
+**Motion**: {full formalized motion}
+{if definitions: **Definitions**: {count} terms defined}
+{if scope: **Scope**: {scope}}
+
+Run `/debate-run {slug} 8` to start the debate. Exchange 0 (opening statements) runs automatically, then specify how many rebuttal exchanges to run."
