One git repository
Use a repo you can inspect and revert. Ralph Workflow works in your normal project checkout, not a hosted sandbox.
Install in minutes
Autopilot for coding agents you can trust
Install it.
Start one calm background run.
Ralph Workflow is not a web app or a hosted service. It is a local command you run in a git repo when you want a coding agent to keep working without your attention.
Python 3.12+
Open source
Runs locally
Uses your agent CLIs
What you need before the first run.
Keep the first setup boring. Ralph Workflow works best when the repository, the agent CLI, and the task brief are already clear.
One agent on PATH
Claude Code, Codex CLI, or OpenCode should already authenticate and run on your machine before Ralph Workflow coordinates it.
One bounded task
The first run should be meaningful but contained: a small feature, a focused refactor, or tests for one module.
Best evaluator path
Then step away with a standard.
Codeberg-first: inspect the source, pick your first task, run the loop, and ask the morning-after question: would I merge this?
Before
Write the task brief, set the scope, and say what success looks like.
During
Ralph Workflow keeps the run moving through the background loop without turning your repo into a mystery.
After
Review the diff, checks, and finish receipt. Merge only if the result earned it.
