How does Ralph Loop prevent infinite execution cycles?

The skill includes a 'max_iterations' parameter (defaulting to 10) that forces the loop to terminate even if completion criteria have not been met, providing a safety ceiling for autonomous tasks.

What is the benefit of the File-Movement strategy?

While promise tokens are simple, the File-Movement strategy is more reliable because it ties task completion to a physical file change in the directory structure, ensuring the work is actually saved and moved before the loop exits.

Where can I see the progress of an active Ralph Loop?

All active state and history are stored in the 'vault/Logs/' directory as JSON files, providing a transparent audit trail of every iteration Claude performs.

Can I stop a loop manually once it has started?

Yes, because Ralph Loop integrates with the standard Claude Code environment, you can terminate the process or modify the state files in the log directory to influence the loop's behavior.

Automates multi-step Claude Code tasks by ensuring continuous execution until specific completion criteria are met.

Ralph Loop is a sophisticated task orchestration skill for Claude Code designed to prevent premature exits during complex, multi-step operations. By implementing a 'Stop hook' pattern, it intercepts Claude's exit attempts and re-injects prompts if the defined goal hasn't been reached. It supports two robust completion strategies—promise-based tokens and file-movement-based verification—making it an essential tool for batch file processing, exhaustive codebase audits, or any workflow that requires persistent, autonomous iteration without manual human intervention.
