What is the RALPLAN-DR framework?

RALPLAN-DR is a structured deliberation format used by the agents to define Principles, Decision Drivers, and Viable Options, ensuring that technical choices are justified and documented.

What happens if the Architect and Critic agents disagree?

Ralplan enters a re-review loop for up to 5 iterations, refining the plan based on feedback until the Critic provides an APPROVE verdict or the iteration limit is reached.

Can I bypass the planning phase for quick fixes?

Yes, you can bypass the pre-execution gate by including specific anchors like file paths or function names, or by prefixing your command with 'force:' or '!'.

How does the pre-execution gate benefit my workflow?

The gate prevents agents from attempting to solve vague prompts like 'fix the app' by redirecting them to a planning phase, ensuring a clear scope and testable criteria are defined first.

When should I use the --deliberate flag?

Use --deliberate for high-risk work such as security changes, database migrations, or public API modifications to trigger expanded pre-mortems and rigorous test planning.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Orchestrates a multi-agent consensus workflow for robust, architecturally sound software planning and risk mitigation.

Ralplan is an advanced planning skill for Claude Code that implements a structured deliberation process between Planner, Architect, and Critic agents. By enforcing a consensus-based approach (RALPLAN-DR), it ensures that technical decisions are thoroughly vetted, risks are identified via pre-mortems, and alternative solutions are considered before any code is written. It acts as a sophisticated pre-execution gate, automatically redirecting vague requests into detailed project requirements and Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) to prevent wasted compute cycles and ensure high-quality implementations through parallel or sequential execution modes.
