name: ralph-integrate description: Integrate Ralph with your project's existing CLAUDE.md files, skills, and agent preferences. Run after installing Ralph, or rerun anytime you add new skills/agents.

Ralph Integration

Integrate Ralph with your project's existing configuration.

What This Does

1. Discovers CLAUDE.md files and skills in your project
2. Integrates them into Ralph prompts
3. Resolves any conflicting instructions
4. Configures agent types based on your preferences

When to Run

• After installing Ralph - Initial setup
• After adding a new skill - So Ralph knows to use it
• After adding a new agent type - To configure which phases use it
• After updating CLAUDE.md - To sync new rules

This is idempotent - safe to run multiple times. It will re-discover and update the ## Project Integration section in Ralph prompts, replacing the previous integration.

Usage

/ralph-integrate

Or with preferences:

/ralph-integrate use opus-engineer for implementation

Steps

1. Discover Project Configuration

Search for existing configuration:

# CLAUDE.md files
find . -name "CLAUDE.md" -o -name "claude.md" 2>/dev/null | grep -v node_modules | grep -v .ralph

# Skills
find .claude/skills -name "SKILL.md" 2>/dev/null

Read each file and extract:

• Testing commands and requirements
• Code style rules
• Agent types defined
• Project-specific conventions

2. Check for Conflicts

Compare discovered rules with Ralph's defaults in:

• .ralph/prompts/base.md
• .ralph/prompts/manager.md
• .ralph/prompts/test.md
• .ralph/prompts/implement.md

Project CLAUDE.md always wins over Ralph defaults.

3. Update Ralph Prompts

Update .ralph/prompts/base.md:

Look for an existing ## Project Integration section. If found, replace it entirely. If not found, add it at the end.

Use these markers to make it replaceable:

<!-- RALPH_INTEGRATION_START -->
## Project Integration

### From CLAUDE.md
[Paste relevant sections from project CLAUDE.md]

### Available Skills
- /skill-name - [description]

### Testing Configuration
- Command: [discovered test command]
- Coverage: [if specified]

<!-- RALPH_INTEGRATION_END -->

On subsequent runs, replace everything between the markers.

Update .ralph/prompts/manager.md agent types:

If the project has specialized agents (e.g., opus-engineer), update:

### Subagent Configuration

| Phase | Agent Type | Reason |
|-------|------------|--------|
| investigate | general-purpose | Fast exploration |
| implement | [PROJECT_AGENT] | [reason] |
| test | general-purpose | Standard testing |
| review | [PROJECT_AGENT] | Thorough review |

And update the Task calls accordingly.

Update .ralph/prompts/test.md:

If a test skill exists:

### Run Tests

Use the project's test skill:
/test

[Or specific command from CLAUDE.md]

4. Copy to Installed Location

After updating prompts in the source, sync to the installed location:

# If .ralph/ exists in project root
cp prompts/*.md .ralph/prompts/

5. Report Results

Output a summary:

## Integration Complete

### Discovered
- CLAUDE.md: [paths]
- Skills: [list with descriptions]

### Changes Made
- base.md: Added [X] project rules
- manager.md: Updated agent type to [Y] for [phases]
- test.md: Integrated [test skill/command]

### Conflicts Resolved
- [conflict]: [resolution]

### Next Steps
- Review changes in .ralph/prompts/
- Run `.ralph/ralph.sh <project>` to test

Agent Type Configuration

If the user specifies agent preferences, update manager.md:

Preference	Update
use opus-engineer	Set subagent_type: "opus-engineer" for implement
use sonnet for review	Add model: "sonnet" to review Task
use haiku for investigate	Add model: "haiku" to investigate Task

Example

User runs: /ralph-integrate use opus-engineer for implementation

Finds:

• ./CLAUDE.md with testing rules
• .claude/skills/test/SKILL.md
• .claude/skills/opus-engineer/SKILL.md

Updates .ralph/prompts/base.md:

## Project Integration

### Testing
- Use `/test` skill for running tests
- Require passing tests before review

### Skills Available to Ralph
- /test - Comprehensive test runner
- /opus-engineer - Implementation specialist

Updates .ralph/prompts/manager.md:

For implement phase:
Task(
  description: "implement for {story-id}",
  prompt: [combined prompt],
  subagent_type: "opus-engineer"
)
