start

To resume work from your last git sprint session, run the dispatcher to evaluate the current Ralph project state. It checks initialization, validates RALPH.md fields, inspects recent commits, and loads sprint data to determine your next actions.

If you have uncommitted work in your project backlog, the session dispatcher inspects your git status and presents case-driven guidance. It surfaces handoff information from your previous sprint to help you decide whether to commit or adjust the workflow.

Project state validation works by checking RALPH.md presence and validating its required sections. The dispatcher reads this initialization file alongside git status and sprint data to load progress and backlog data for the current session.

Yes, you can load sprint and progress data without manually checking git status. The dispatcher automatically inspects git status, recent commits, and sprint references to surface handoff information and direct you to the next actions.

The best way to start a new workflow session after an interrupted sprint is to run the initial dispatcher. It evaluates the project state, identifies the interrupted sprint context, and guides you to either resume working or adjust the workflow.

Your session start requires RALPH.md initialization fields because the dispatcher validates them to load sprint, progress, and document references. Without proper initialization, the dispatcher cannot determine the correct next actions for your project state.
