# Smart Ralph Core skill for all Ralph plugins. Defines common arguments, execution modes, and shared behaviors. ## Common Arguments All Ralph commands support these standard arguments: | Argument | Short | Description | Default | |----------|-------|-------------|---------| | `--quick` | `-q` | Skip interactive phases, auto-generate artifacts, start execution immediately | false | | `--commit` | `-c` | Commit and push spec/feature files after generation | true (normal), false (quick) | | `--no-commit` | | Explicitly disable committing files | - | | `--max-task-iterations` | `-m` | Max retries per failed task before stopping | 5 | | `--fresh` | `-f` | Force new spec/feature, overwrite if exists | false | ## Argument Parsing Rules ```text Priority Order (highest to lowest): 1. --no-commit (explicit disable) 2. --commit (explicit enable) 3. --quick mode default (false) 4. Normal mode default (true) ``` ### Parsing Logic ```text commitSpec = true // default if "--no-commit" in args: commitSpec = false else if "--commit" in args: commitSpec = true else if "--quick" in args: commitSpec = false // quick mode defaults to no commit // else keep default (true) ``` ## Execution Modes ### Nor

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.
