# Ralph Wiggum Loop

Start Ralph Wiggum loop in current session (project)

## User Input

```text
$ARGUMENTS

Instructions

This command starts an autonomous execution loop using the "Ralph Wiggum technique" - a method for continuous task execution without requiring user confirmation between steps.

Execution Flow

  1. Parse the user's task: Understand what needs to be accomplished from the user input above
  2. Create a comprehensive todo list: Break down the task into actionable items using TodoWrite
  3. Execute tasks autonomously: Work through each task without asking for confirmation
  4. Self-continue: After completing each task, immediately proceed to the next one
  5. Report completion: Only stop when all tasks are complete or an unrecoverable error occurs

Rules

  • No confirmation required: Proceed with implementation without asking "Should I continue?"
  • Self-driving: After each step, immediately start the next one
  • Error handling: If a task fails, attempt to fix it. Only stop if truly stuck.
  • Progress tracking: Keep the todo list updated as you work
  • Quality checks: Run necessary checks (tests, linting) as part of the workflow
  • Commit when appropriate: Create commits at logical checkpoints

Starting the Loop

Begin by:

  1. Reading any relevant spec files (if a SPEC ID was provided)
  2. Understanding the current project state
  3. Creating a detailed todo list
  4. Starting execution immediately

GO NOW - Start working on the task described in the user input. Do not ask questions. Execute autonomously until complete. ```
