agent-tui: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/ralph-status.md

ralph-status is a command for Claude Code from pproenca/agent-tui. It costs 8 tokens per session (312 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that reports the progress of a RALPH loop, an approach where an agent repeats small tasks while saving its memory in project files and Git history.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to see completed and remaining tasks, the current iteration, timestamps, recent progress notes, and recent log output.
Why use it?
It gives you one view of whether the loop is running, paused, finished, or out of iterations, without opening each tracking file yourself.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter.

This is pproenca/agent-tui's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on agent-tui itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything agent-tui configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ralph-status scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

RALPH Status Check

Display current RALPH loop status from .ralph/ directory.

Actions

  1. Read .ralph/status.json for machine state
  2. Read .ralph/TODO.md to count completed vs remaining tasks
  3. Show recent entries from .ralph/progress.txt (last 10 lines)
  4. Show recent log output from .ralph/ralph.log (last 20 lines)

Output Format

Present a clear status report:

═══════════════════════════════════════
  RALPH Status: [task-name]
═══════════════════════════════════════

Status:     [running|paused|complete|max_iterations]
Iteration:  [N]/[max]
Progress:   [completed]/[total] tasks ([percent]%)
Started:    [timestamp]
Last run:   [timestamp]

## Completed Tasks
- [x] Task 1
- [x] Task 2

## Remaining Tasks
- [ ] Task 3
- [ ] Task 4

## Recent Progress Log
[last 10 lines from progress.txt]

## Recent Output
[last 20 lines from ralph.log]

If No RALPH Loop Exists

If .ralph/ directory doesn't exist, inform the user:

"No RALPH loop found. Use /ralph-init to create one."

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
