Ralph Wiggum CLI by Geoffrey Huntley

Unproofread notes

Geoffrey Huntley created this framework for AI agent loop back in July 2025 and named it Ralph Wiggum. Back then, it didn't get the traction is deserved, but recently became the talk of the AI-verse when Ryan Carson posted an article about it. And ever since a lot of folks are talking about it and sharing their setups.

Recently, Ian Nuttall built a CLI tool based Ralph Wiggum, and it does seem useful for running agents in loops. It's a full-fledged CLI tool and has features like PRD and Skills. You can learn about it more from this discussion on X. In the GitHub repo, the Ralph CLI tool is defined as:

Ralph is a minimal, file‑based agent loop for autonomous coding. Each iteration starts fresh, reads the same on‑disk state, and commits work for one story at a time.

Apart from this, I also found the work of other people about Ralph Wiggum and I will be collecting them here:

  1. The Ralph Playbook by Clayton Farr
  2. Ralph for idiots by Agrim Singh
  3. How to Ralph Wiggum by Geoffrey Huntley
  4. Ralph for Claude Code by Frank Bria

I will keep adding more resources and information to this page as I discover something noteworthy.
