ralph-prompt-project
Generate Ralph-compatible prompts for entire projects from scratch. Creates comprehensive prompts with architecture phase, implementation phases, testing, and documentation. Use when building complete applications, libraries, CLI tools, or any greenfield project requiring end-to-end development.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill ralph-prompt-project --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 Prompt Generator: Complete Project ## Overview Generates comprehensive prompts for building entire projects from scratch using the Ralph Wiggum technique. These prompts structure development into architectural phases (design, implementation, testing, documentation) with clear milestones and incremental completion. **Best For:** - Building complete REST APIs from scratch - Creating CLI tools - Developing libraries/packages - Building web applications - Creating automation tools - Greenfield projects with clear requirements **Real-World Success:** - Geoffrey Huntley used Ralph to create the "cursed" programming language over 3 months - Y Combinator hackathon: 6 repositories generated overnight - $50k contract completed for $297 in API costs **Ralph Philosophy**: These successes work because Ralph embraces that failures are deterministic and fixable. Each iteration learns from the previous. Don't fear failures—they're expected and provide data for improvement through prompt tuning, not tool changes. ## Quick Start **Input Required:** 1. Project description (what to build) 2. Technical requirements (language, framework, features) 3. Success criteria (what makes it complete) 4.

What does the ralph-prompt-project skill do?
Generate Ralph-compatible prompts for entire projects from scratch. Creates comprehensive prompts with architecture phase, implementation phases, testing, and documentation. Use when building complete applications, libraries, CLI tools, or any greenfield project requiring end-to-end development.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill ralph-prompt-project --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.
