- Fix check_claude_version() to use numeric semantic version comparison
- Fix detect_response_format() to read first non-whitespace character
- Wire PARSED_RESULT into success message output
- Wire PARSED_FILES_CREATED into file verification logic
- Add --allowedTools flag to CLI invocation using CLAUDE_ALLOWED_TOOLS
- Separate stderr to avoid corrupting JSON output file
- Clean up stderr file on completion and error
- Update README.md version badges to v0.9.8 and 276 tests
- Update roadmap section with current test coverage breakdown
- Add --output-format json flag for structured Claude CLI responses
- Implement detect_response_format() for JSON vs text detection
- Implement parse_conversion_response() for extracting JSON fields
- Add check_claude_version() for modern CLI feature detection
- Enhance error handling with structured JSON error messages
- Improve file verification with JSON-derived status information
- Maintain backward compatibility with automatic text fallback
- Add 11 new TDD tests for modern CLI features (tests 23-33)
- Update README.md with Modern CLI Features section
- Update CLAUDE.md with v0.9.8 release notes
Test count: 276 (up from 265)
- Changed from 'npx @anthropic-ai/claude-code' to 'claude'
- This assumes Claude Code is installed globally with npm install -g
- Updated ralph_loop.sh, ralph_import.sh, and README.md
- Much cleaner and faster execution without npx overhead
- Updated from @anthropic/claude-code to @anthropic-ai/claude-code
- This was causing npm 404 errors when trying to execute Claude Code
- Fixed in ralph_loop.sh, ralph_import.sh, install.sh, and README.md
- Ralph should now be able to successfully execute Claude Code commands
🚀 New Feature: ralph-import
- Converts existing PRDs/specs to Ralph format using Claude Code intelligence
- Supports multiple formats: Markdown, text, JSON, Word docs, PDFs
- Creates complete Ralph project with PROMPT.md, @fix_plan.md, specs/
- Leverages Claude Code for intelligent requirement parsing and conversion
🔧 Implementation:
- ralph_import.sh: Core conversion script with Claude Code integration
- Global installation: ralph-import command available system-wide
- Smart conversion prompt that extracts goals, priorities, and technical specs
- Auto-generates proper Ralph project structure from any source format
📚 Enhanced Documentation:
- New "Importing Existing Requirements" section in README
- Option A (import PRD) vs Option B (manual setup) in Quick Start
- Comprehensive format support and usage examples
- Command reference updated with ralph-import
🎯 Benefits:
- Eliminates manual conversion from PRDs to Ralph format
- Leverages Claude Code's intelligence for requirement interpretation
- Dramatically reduces onboarding friction for existing projects
- Maintains all original requirement context while making it actionable
Sample PRD included for testing and demonstration purposes.
