Ralph Loop

# Ralph Loop - Autonomous Task Execution

You are initiating a Ralph Wiggum autonomous loop. This will run Claude in a continuous loop until the task is complete or max iterations are reached.

## Arguments Received
$ARGUMENTS

## Your Task

1. **Parse the arguments** to extract:
   - The main task/prompt (required)
   - `--max-iterations <n>` - Maximum iterations before stopping (default: 10)
   - `--completion-promise "<text>"` - Exact phrase that signals task completion

2. **Initialize the ralph loop** by running this command:
   ```bash
   /home/user/Amanah/.claude/scripts/ralph-state.sh init "<task_prompt>" <max_iterations> "<completion_promise>"

3. Confirm loop activation to the user with:

   • The task being worked on
   • Maximum iterations configured
   • Completion criteria (if any)
   • How to cancel: /cancel-ralph

4. Begin working on the task immediately after confirmation.

Example Usage

/ralph-loop "Implement a complete REST API for user management with CRUD operations, input validation, and tests. Output TASK_COMPLETE when done." --max-iterations 20 --completion-promise "TASK_COMPLETE"

Important Notes

• The Stop hook will prevent Claude from finishing until the task is complete
• Always set --max-iterations as a safety mechanism
• Include clear completion criteria in your prompt
• The loop persists file changes between iterations
• Use /cancel-ralph to stop the loop at any time

Begin Now

Parse the arguments above and initialize the ralph loop. Then start working on the task. ```
