Automated iterative agent runner for spec-based development in Kiro. Wraps kiro-cli in a self-correcting bash loop that picks up tasks from a Kiro spec, implements them one at a time, verifies against exit criteria, and accumulates corrections and codebase patterns across iterations. Use this skill when the user mentions "ralph loop", "ralph", "spec loop", "iterative spec runner", "run my spec tasks automatically", "kiro spec automation", "self-correcting agent loop…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Ralph Loop for Kiro Specs

An automated, iterative agent runner that drives spec-based development in [Kiro](https://kiro.dev). It wraps `kiro-cli` in a bash loop, feeding it a carefully engineered prompt that turns Kiro into a disciplined, self-correcting implementation agent — one that picks up tasks from a spec, implements them, verifies its own work, and learns from its mistakes across iterations.

## When to Use

- Automate implementation of Kiro spec tasks through repeated agent iterations
- Drive a spec from start to finish without manual prompt-by-prompt interaction
- Set up the Ralph Loop in a new project
- Troubleshoot a stuck or failed Ralph Loop run
- Understand how progress tracking, corrections, and codebase patterns work
- Generate or interpret the summary dashboard after completion

## Prerequisites

| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Kiro CLI | `kiro-cli` must be installed and on `PATH` ([kiro.dev/cli](https://kiro.dev/cli/)) |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fabricioctelles/skills/ralph-loop-kiro-specs@sha256:0b995f3cf8a4d0cc

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
