# Ralph Workplan
|
|
|
|
Start a ralph loop driven by a workplan file. The loop retires automatically
|
|
when all tasks in the workplan are marked done.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/ralph-workplan workplans/WP-0001-my-task.md
|
|
/ralph-workplan workplans/WP-0001-my-task.md --max-iterations 15
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The workplan file must follow the format described in `workplan-spec.md`
|
|
(YAML frontmatter with `id`, `title`, `status` fields; tasks as fenced
|
|
`task` code blocks with `id` and `status`).
|
|
|
|
## Steps
|
|
|
|
Parse `$ARGUMENTS` to extract:
|
|
- `WORKPLAN_FILE` — the positional argument (required)
|
|
- `MAX_ITERATIONS` — value after `--max-iterations` (default: 20)
|
|
|
|
**Step 1 — Validate the workplan file exists**
|
|
|
|
If the file does not exist:
|
|
> "❌ Workplan file not found: $WORKPLAN_FILE"
|
|
|
|
Stop.
|
|
|
|
**Step 2 — Read the workplan frontmatter**
|
|
|
|
Read `$WORKPLAN_FILE`. Extract from the YAML frontmatter:
|
|
- `id` — workplan identifier
|
|
- `title` — workplan title
|
|
- `status` — current status
|
|
|
|
**Step 3 — Guard: check if already done**
|
|
|
|
Run:
|
|
```bash
|
|
"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/check-done.sh" "$WORKPLAN_FILE"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Exit code 0 means the workplan is already done. If so:
|
|
> "✅ Workplan $ID ('$TITLE') is already done — all tasks complete.
|
|
> Nothing to do. No ralph loop started."
|
|
|
|
Stop.
|
|
|
|
**Step 4 — Show current task summary**
|
|
|
|
Count the task blocks in the file (fenced blocks with language tag `task`).
|
|
Report:
|
|
> "📋 $ID — $TITLE
|
|
> Tasks: X done, Y in progress, Z todo (N total)
|
|
> Starting ralph loop (max $MAX_ITERATIONS iterations)..."
|
|
|
|
**Step 5 — Start the loop**
|
|
|
|
Run:
|
|
```bash
|
|
"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/setup.sh" \
|
|
"$WORKPLAN_FILE" "$ID" "$TITLE" "$MAX_ITERATIONS"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then report:
|
|
> "🔄 Ralph loop active. The loop will feed the workplan prompt back on every
|
|
> iteration. It retires when all tasks are done and the workplan status is
|
|
> updated to 'done' in the file."
