Ralph — Autonomous Software Engineering
A specification-driven autonomous engineering loop: inspect the repository, implement against a spec, run and test the result, and iterate until the work is genuinely done.
PROBLEM
Long-running engineering work needs continuity — an agent that inspects, implements, tests and corrects itself across many iterations instead of generating once and stopping.
APPROACH
Treat a written specification as the source of truth and run a persistent loop — inspect, plan, implement, test, verify, fix, repeat — with state carried between iterations instead of a single one-shot generation.
ENGINEERING
- Specification-driven development loop
- Repository inspection before implementation
- Automated build and test verification
- Failure detection and iterative correction
- Persistent state across iterations
RESULT
This website was built using the Ralph loop described above — the process is in active use, not a hypothetical.
