- Add --monitor flag to ralph_loop.sh for integrated tmux monitoring
- Automatically creates split-pane session with Ralph loop and monitor
- Include tmux availability check with installation instructions
- Update documentation to recommend tmux workflow
- Add tmux session management commands and controls
- Preserve all existing functionality for users without tmux
New workflow:
../ralph_loop.sh --monitor # Creates split session automatically
Traditional workflow still supported:
../ralph_loop.sh # Terminal 1
../ralph_monitor.sh # Terminal 2
System requirements updated to include tmux (recommended).
- Fix nested EOF heredoc conflicts in update_status() and show_help() functions
- Use unique delimiters (STATUSEOF, HELPEOF) to avoid conflicts
- Complete Ralph for Claude Code implementation with all components:
- ralph_loop.sh: Main autonomous development loop with rate limiting
- ralph_monitor.sh: Live monitoring dashboard
- setup.sh: Project initialization script
- templates/: Template files for new projects
- .gitignore: Comprehensive ignore rules
All scripts are now executable and syntax-validated.
Features:
- Intelligent exit detection (knows when project is done)
- Test limiting (enforces 20% rule to prevent busy work)
- Rate limiting with graceful API usage management
- Live monitoring dashboard with real-time progress
- Auto-generated documentation every 10 iterations
- Specification-driven development approach
Based on Geoffrey Huntley's Ralph technique, adapted for Claude Code.
