SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Ralphing enables autonomous AI loops to implement user stories by iterating, testing, and logging learnings in a fresh context each cycle, while memory persists through git history and text files.

Core Features & Use Cases

Orchestrates iterative, autonomous coding loops that take PRDs and implement stories with tests; commits and logs learnings.
Supports loop control, PRD-based planning, and progress tracking across iterations for multi-story features.
Use case: when a team wants to push a multi-story feature overnight with minimal human intervention.

Quick Start

Run the Ralph script with your repository path and PRD file to start the autonomous looping process.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate autonomous coding loops for multi-story feature development?▼

You can automate autonomous coding loops by running a script with your repository path and PRD file to handle PRD intake, iterative implementation, tests, commits, and progress tracking with minimal human intervention.

What is an autonomous AI agent coding loop and how does it manage memory?▼

An autonomous AI agent coding loop iterates through implementation and testing in a fresh context each cycle, while memory persists through git history and text files that log learnings and progress state.

Can I run overnight feature delivery with automated branch management and test execution?▼

Yes, overnight feature delivery is supported by orchestrating PRD-driven workflows that handle branch management, execute tests, and apply failure recovery automatically across multiple iterations.

How do I start an autonomous coding loop using a PRD file?▼

To start the autonomous looping process, run the Ralph script while providing your target repository path and the PRD file, which initiates PRD intake and scripted prompts for iterative implementation.

What happens when a test fails during an autonomous coding iteration?▼

When a test fails during an autonomous coding iteration, the workflow applies failure recovery mechanisms, logs the learnings, and maintains progress state to ensure the loop continues toward feature completion.
