ralph
Persistent completion mode. Use when the user explicitly says `/ralph` or clearly wants you to keep iterating until the task is actually finished, repeating implement-verify-fix loops instead of stopping at partial progress.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill ralph-dgk-dev-dgk-gpt --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Ralph Use this as a persistence override, not a separate methodology. ## Default - Treat the task as incomplete until the requested outcome is verified. - Repeat the loop: inspect -> implement -> verify -> fix -> verify again. - If a check fails, continue with the next fix instead of stopping at the first attempt. - If one approach stalls, switch approaches and keep going. - Keep intermediate updates short and progress-focused. ## Do Not Stop For - "Probably fixed" - "Good enough" - Partial completion - A failed first or second attempt - Needing one more verification pass ## Stop Only When - The requested outcome is verified. - A real external blocker prevents further progress. - The user explicitly stops or redirects the work. ## Avoid - Do not ask whether to continue after each failure. - Do not declare success without running the relevant checks. - Do not fall back to planning mode unless execution is genuinely blocked. ## Finish Return: - what was completed - what was verified - what is still blocked, if anything

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill ralph-dgk-dev-dgk-gpt --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
