What is a project initialization workflow and when do I need it?▼

A project initialization workflow scaffolds essential configuration files like RALPH.md and starter templates. You need this process when starting a project from scratch to guide PRD planning and sprint scaffolding.

Can I scaffold templates into an existing project directory?▼

Yes, you can scaffold templates into an existing project directory. Running /ralph-init creates the RALPH.md configuration and prepares the scripts/ralph directory without overwriting existing project files.

Project initialization may not create template files if the one-time bootstrap has already run. The /ralph-init command scaffolds RALPH.md and starter templates once, preventing duplicate configuration on subsequent runs.
