Frequently Asked Questions about Ralph Autonomous Development Agent

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate PRD-driven development from a JSON file?▼

You can automate PRD-driven development by running the script to process user stories defined in a `prd.json` file, which automatically handles prompt generation, execution via Claude Code, completion tracking, and Git commits.

Can I integrate autonomous development into CI/CD pipelines?▼

Yes, autonomous development integrates with CI/CD pipelines to automatically implement multiple user stories from a backlog, supporting webhook notifications for real-time progress updates during unattended batch processing sessions.

How does an autonomous agent handle Git commits for user stories?▼

The autonomous agent manages Git commits by detecting the completion of each user story executed via Claude Code, automatically staging and committing the generated code changes as it progresses through the defined workflow.

Do I need a specific format to define product requirements for automated development?▼

Yes, you need to define your product requirements in a `prd.json` file format, which the automation script reads to filter and process user stories for unattended development sessions.

What is the best way to run unattended batch development sessions overnight?▼

Running overnight unattended development sessions is best accomplished by configuring the autonomous agent to process a batch of user stories from your `prd.json` file, allowing it to execute features and commit code automatically.

Why use a structured workflow for automating user story implementation?▼

Using a structured workflow for automating user story implementation ensures consistent story filtering, prompt generation, and execution via Claude Code, preventing manual intervention errors during unattended CI/CD pipeline runs.
