    $ralph-specum-help
  • Normal flow: start, stop, research, approval, requirements, approval, design, approval, tasks, approval, implement
  • Large effort flow: triage, then start each unblocked spec
  • Quick mode: generate missing artifacts and continue into implementation in one run only when the user explicitly asks for quick or autonomous flow
  • Disk contract:
    ./specs
    or configured roots,
    .current-spec
    , optional
    .current-epic
    , per-spec markdown files,
    .ralph-state.json

Guidance

  • Recommend
    $ralph-specum
    as the default entrypoint.
  • Recommend
    $ralph-specum-triage
    when the user describes a large, multi-part, or dependency-heavy effort.
  • Mention helper skills when the user wants explicit phase control.
  • Explain that Ralph does not self-advance by default. The user must approve the current artifact, request changes, or explicitly continue to the next step.
  • Mention optional bootstrap assets only when the user wants repo-local guidance.
