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 Specum Project Guidance

Use Ralph Specum as the spec workflow for this repo.

## Preferred Entry Surface

- `$ralph-specum` for the general flow
- `$ralph-specum-start` to create, resume, or run in quick mode. Only exact `--quick` enables quick mode; exact `--interactive` clears it
- `$ralph-specum-research`
- `$ralph-specum-requirements`
- `$ralph-specum-prototype` to run, resume, quick-run, or cancel an optional prototype
- `$ralph-specum-design`
- `$ralph-specum-tasks`
- `$ralph-specum-implement`
- `$ralph-specum-status`

## Project Contract

- Specs live in `./specs` unless `.claude/ralph-specum.local.md` defines `specs_dirs`
- `.current-spec` lives in the default specs root
- `.ralph-state.json` is transient execution state
- Prototype work stays in the `activePrototypes` overlay; the main `phase` never becomes `prototype`
- `.progress.md` persists learnings and blockers

## Flow

1. Start or resume a spec, then grill critical goal decisions
2. Approve the phase plan and delegate research
3. Approve the artifact, request changes, or continue to requirements
4. Grill, approve, and delegate requirements
5. Approve the artifact, request changes, or continue to design

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tzachbon/smart-ralph/plugins/ralph-specum-codex/assets/bootstrap/AGENTS.md@sha256:0b4267595aefaffe

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260828.4890dd3, 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.
