Agmo Ralph
Treat this as a compatibility alias of execute, not as a separate canonical workflow stage.
Main behavior
- route to the
execute workflow semantics
- raise the execution bar: do not claim completion without fresh verification evidence
- if verification fails or returns incomplete proof, fix the issue and re-run the proof loop
- keep the leader in orchestrator mode while
agmo-executor handles coding and agmo-verifier provides the completion gate verdict
- escalate to
team only when implementation and verification truly need durable parallel lanes
Native subagent lifecycle
When spawning native subagents for this workflow, keep each agent id until its result is integrated, then call close_agent for completed, failed, superseded, or no-longer-needed lanes so thread slots are released before the next delegation.
Completion-gated posture
ralph means:
- do not stop at first implementation
- distinguish failure from missing proof
- continue through safe, reversible next steps automatically
- report a blocker only when the next move materially depends on user input, missing authority, or unavailable infrastructure
Artifact save body
Before ending a meaningful completion-gated stage, make the final response or delegated result save-ready:
- accepted goal and final outcome
- implementation changes
- verification loop evidence
- fixes attempted after failures
- remaining blocker or done state
What it should not become
- not a new public workflow stage
- not a mandatory architect-signoff mode for every small task
- not a replacement for
team when durable worker lanes are genuinely needed
Canonical name
Use execute in docs, onboarding, and workflow descriptions. Keep ralph available so users can explicitly ask for a completion-gated execution pass without introducing a separate workflow stage.
