What it does
Ralph is an agent skill from rohunj/claude-build-workflow. Convert PRDs to prd.json format for the Ralph autonomous agent system. Use when you have an existing PRD and need to convert it to Ralph's JSON format. Triggers on: convert this prd, turn this into ralph format, create prd.json from this, ralph json.
Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Product & Project Management, covering PRD writing and Autonomous loops. The repository describes itself as: Automated workflow for building apps with Claude Code. Describe what you want, answer questions, let it build autonomously.
When your agent uses it
- You have an existing PRD and need to convert it to Ralphs JSON format
- : convert this prd
- Turn this into ralph format
- Create prd.json from this
Example prompts
- “/ralph”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Schema/database changes (migrations)
- Server actions / backend logic
- UI components that use the backend
- Dashboard/summary views that aggregate data
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 91f884e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json and markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Ralph loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 678 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 678 words (~1,982 tokens).
“Converts existing PRDs to the prd.json format that Ralph uses for autonomous execution.”
