AD ralph-loop

Generate copy-paste bash scripts for Ralph Wiggum/AI agent loops (Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, Goose). Use when asked for a "Ralph loop", "Ralph Wiggum loop", or an AI loop to plan/build code via PROMPT.md + AGENTS.md, SPECS, and IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md, including PLANNING vs BUILDING modes, backpressure, sandboxing, and completion conditions.

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
    • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

    Against the Agent Skills spec

    ✓ No remarks against the Agent Skills spec

    Process rating: all ten parameters 46/100

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
    • 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
    • 30Running it twice. 4 mutating operations with no state check
    • 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (ralph-loop) differs from the folder (monitored-ralph-loop)
    • 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 100Steps. 33 steps
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2410 tokens
    • 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
    • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
    • low 10 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
    • low The response is described with custom markup (3 tags): a typed call is more reliable

    Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.

    Quality signals

    • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
    • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
    • -4Absolute local paths (C:\Users, /home/…): not portable
    • +1No license
    • +2Single-language instructions
    • +5Description quotes 2 example trigger phrases
    • +3Description length 345: enough signal without eating the budget
    • +4Structure: 27 headings
    • +3Step-by-step instructions: 33 items
    • +4Has examples (18 code blocks)

    Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 88.
