The Ralph Loop

Read PRD: Check scripts/ralph/prd.json for tasks
Check Progress: Read scripts/ralph/progress.txt for learnings
Pick Task: Find highest priority story where passes: false
Execute: Complete the task following acceptance criteria
Verify: Run tests to ensure quality
Commit: Save progress to git
Update: Mark task done, log learnings
Repeat: Loop until all tasks complete

Each iteration is a fresh context window. Memory persists through files.

The Ralph Philosophy

"Ralph is a Bash loop. Memory persists only through git history and text files. Each iteration is a fresh context window."

Key principles:

Small stories - Must complete in one iteration
Explicit criteria - No ambiguity
Fast feedback - Tests every iteration
Compound learnings - Patterns accumulate
Persistence wins - Keep iterating
