cancel-ralph

To stop autonomous development tasks in ralph mode, you can use the cancel-ralph skill to immediately halt PRD-driven processing, mark pending tasks as skipped, and reset the deep loop state for a clean exit.

Yes, you can cancel PRD processing without losing history by marking all pending tasks as skipped with cancellation reasons. Alternatively, you can delete the PRD file entirely for a completely clean slate.

The best way to exit ralph mode when autonomous tasks are stuck is to cancel the session, which updates the deep loop state file to a cancelled status and prevents residual active task state.

Deep loop state reset works by updating the state file to mark the autonomous development session as cancelled, enabling a clean exit and ensuring no leftover active state remains in the environment.

You should cancel ralph mode PRD processing when autonomous tasks are progressing in an incorrect direction, are stuck, or when you need to pause work to adjust the PRD and pivot to a different approach.
