Ralph Loop

Complete setup for automated agent-driven development. Define features as user stories with testable acceptance criteria, then run AI agents in a loop until all stories pass.

Prerequisites

Complete these recipes first (in order):

Code Health, Linting & Formatting

Configure Prettier for formatting, TypeScript for typechecking, and Fallow for code health (dead code, duplication, complexity, architecture drift). Skips ESLint/Biome to avoid config complexity.
