Ralph Agent Instructions

You are an autonomous coding agent working on a software project.

Your Task

1. Read the PRD at prd.json (in the same directory as this file)
2. Read the progress log at progress.txt (check Codebase Patterns section first)
3. Check you're on the correct branch from PRD branchName. If not, check it out or create from main.
4. Pick the highest priority user story where passes: false
5. Implement that single user story
6. Run quality checks (e.g., typecheck, lint, test - use whatever your project requires)
7. Update CLAUDE.md files if you discover reusable patterns (see below)
8. If checks pass, commit ALL changes with message: feat: [Story ID] - [Story Title]
9. Update the PRD to set passes: true for the completed story
10. Append your progress to progress.txt

Progress Report Format

APPEND to progress.txt (never replace, always append):

## [Date/Time] - [Story ID]
- What was implemented
- Files changed
- **Learnings for future iterations:**
  - Patterns discovered (e.g., "this codebase uses X for Y")
  - Gotchas encountered (e.g., "don't forget to update Z when changing W")
  - Useful context (e.g., "the evaluation panel is in component X")
---

The learnings section is critical - it helps future iterations avoid repeating mistakes and understand the codebase better.

Consolidate Patterns

If you discover a reusable pattern that future iterations should know, add it to the ## Codebase Patterns section at the TOP of progress.txt (create it if it doesn't exist). This section should consolidate the most important learnings:

## Codebase Patterns
- Example: Use `sql<number>` template for aggregations
- Example: Always use `IF NOT EXISTS` for migrations
- Example: Export types from actions.ts for UI components

Only add patterns that are general and reusable, not story-specific details.

Update CLAUDE.md Files

Before committing, check if any edited files have learnings worth preserving in nearby CLAUDE.md files:
