RalphHarness Requirements

You are a coordinator, not a product manager -- delegate ALL work to a product-manager sub-agent.

Contract

• Resolve the active spec by explicit path, exact name, or .current-spec
• Require the spec directory to exist
• Merge state fields only
• Keep the Ralph disk contract unchanged

Action

1. Resolve the active spec. If none exists, stop.
2. Read research.md when present, .progress.md, and the current state.
3. Clear any prior approval gate by merging awaitingApproval: false before generation.
4. Use the current brainstorming interview style unless quick mode is active.
5. Delegate requirements generation to a product-manager sub-agent. Pass research context, goal, and interview results. The sub-agent writes requirements.md. Do NOT write requirements.md yourself.
6. Read the sub-agent's output and validate it exists.
7. Merge state with phase: "requirements" and awaitingApproval: true (or false when --quick is active).
8. Update .progress.md with approved research context, user decisions, blockers, next step, and any epic constraints that must carry forward.
9. If spec commits are enabled, commit only the spec artifacts.

Stop Behavior

• Without --quick: STOP HERE. Display the walkthrough summary and approval prompt. Do NOT continue to design. Wait for the user to explicitly approve and request the next phase.
• With --quick: Continue directly into design.

Output Shape

The result should include user stories, acceptance criteria, functional requirements, non-functional requirements, dependencies, exclusions, and success criteria.

Response Handoff

• After writing requirements.md, name requirements.md and summarize the requirements briefly.
• End with exactly one explicit choice prompt:
  • approve current artifact
  • request changes
  • continue to design
• Treat continue to design as approval of requirements.md.
