Ralph Specum Help
Use this to explain the Ralph Specum surface in Codex.
Cover
- Primary skill:
$ralph-specum
- Helper skills:
$ralph-specum-start, $ralph-specum-triage, $ralph-specum-research, $ralph-specum-requirements, $ralph-specum-design, $ralph-specum-tasks, $ralph-specum-implement, $ralph-specum-status, $ralph-specum-switch, $ralph-specum-cancel, $ralph-specum-index, $ralph-specum-refactor, $ralph-specum-feedback, $ralph-specum-help
- Normal flow: start, stop, research, approval, requirements, approval, design, approval, tasks, approval, implement
- Large effort flow: triage, then start each unblocked spec
- Quick mode: generate missing artifacts and continue into implementation in one run only when the user explicitly asks for quick or autonomous flow
- Disk contract:
./specs or configured roots, .current-spec, optional .current-epic, per-spec markdown files, .ralph-state.json
Guidance
- Recommend
$ralph-specum as the default entrypoint.
- Recommend
$ralph-specum-triage when the user describes a large, multi-part, or dependency-heavy effort.
- Mention helper skills when the user wants explicit phase control.
- Explain that Ralph does not self-advance by default. The user must approve the current artifact, request changes, or explicitly continue to the next step.
- Mention optional bootstrap assets only when the user wants repo-local guidance.
