SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Ralph Loop orchestration for OpenClaw agents, enabling end-to-end planning and building loops with real TTY support and structured progress tracking.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Orchestrates OpenClaw coding agents (OpenCode, Codex, Claude Code, Goose) using exec with pty to provide a live terminal
  • Monitors long-running sessions with the process tool and checks completion against IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md
  • Supports PLANNING and BUILDING modes, backpressure iteration control, sandboxing, and safe work-dir isolation

Quick Start

Ask your OpenClaw agent to run a Ralph Loop end-to-end using exec and process tools with TTY support.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate interactive coding agents with real TTY sessions?▼

Orchestrate interactive coding agents by driving them through exec with pty to provide a live terminal, enabling real TTY sessions for tools like OpenCode, Codex, Claude Code, and Goose.

How do I monitor progress and completion of long-running coding agent workflows?▼

Monitor long-running coding agent workflows using the process tool to check session status and verify completion against the structured milestones persisted in IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md.

Does this orchestration approach support both planning and building modes?▼

Yes, the orchestration approach supports both PLANNING and BUILDING modes, allowing you to separate end-to-end planning from active building loops with structured progress tracking.

What safeguards are available for running coding agents in an isolated environment?▼

Safeguards for running coding agents include backpressure iteration control to limit loops, sandboxing options, and robust safe work-dir isolation to protect the host environment.

Can I use this workflow to coordinate Claude Code and Goose agents together?▼

Yes, you can coordinate multiple interactive coding agents including Claude Code and Goose by driving them through a unified exec with pty workflow for real TTY sessions.

Where are the updates and plans persisted during an automated agent building loop?▼

Updates and plans during an automated agent building loop are persisted in IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md, with supporting context stored in PROMPT.md and AGENTS.md files.
