Ralph Orchestrator is a framework that repeatedly runs AI-agent tasks until they finish or reach an iteration limit. Developers use it to coordinate autonomous coding work through command-line, web-dashboard, and MCP-server interfaces, with state managed per workspace. The catalogue entries provide agent skills, agents, instructions, and plugins for operating Ralph.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00027 | $0.00656 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00262 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00131 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00066 |
Grade A, and why
release-bump 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 1mo 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Release Bump
Overview
Bump version and trigger release for ralph-orchestrator. All versions live in workspace Cargo.toml - individual crates inherit via version.workspace = true.
Confirm the new version with the user. Once the bump commit is pushed, track progress of the release.
Quick Reference
| Step | Command/Action |
|---|---|
| 1. Bump version | Edit Cargo.toml: replace all version = "X.Y.Z" (7 occurrences) |
| 2. Build | cargo build (updates Cargo.lock) |
| 3. Test | cargo test |
| 4. Commit | git add Cargo.toml Cargo.lock && git commit -m "chore: bump to vX.Y.Z" |
| 5. Push | git push origin main |
| 6. Tag | git tag vX.Y.Z && git push origin vX.Y.Z |
Version Locations (All in Cargo.toml)
# Line ~17 - workspace version
[workspace.package]
version = "X.Y.Z"
# Lines ~113-118 - internal crate dependencies
ralph-proto = { version = "X.Y.Z", path = "crates/ralph-proto" }
ralph-core = { version = "X.Y.Z", path = "crates/ralph-core" }
ralph-adapters = { version = "X.Y.Z", path = "crates/ralph-adapters" }
ralph-tui = { version = "X.Y.Z", path = "crates/ralph-tui" }
ralph-cli = { version = "X.Y.Z", path = "crates/ralph-cli" }
ralph-bench = { version = "X.Y.Z", path = "crates/ralph-bench" }
Tip: Use Edit tool with replace_all: true on version = "OLD" → version = "NEW" to update all 7 at once.
What CI Does Automatically
Once you push the tag, .github/workflows/release.yml triggers and:
- Creates the GitHub Release with auto-generated notes
- Builds binaries for macOS (arm64, x64) and Linux (arm64, x64)
- Uploads artifacts to the GitHub Release
- Publishes to crates.io (in dependency order)
- Publishes to npm as
@ralph-orchestrator/ralph
Common Mistakes
| Mistake | Fix |
|---|---|
| Only updating workspace.package.version | Must update all 7 occurrences including internal deps |
| Forgetting to run tests | Always cargo test before commit |
Creating release manually with gh release create |
Just push the tag - CI creates the release with artifacts |
| Pushing tag before main | Push main first, then push the tag |
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.

release-bump is a skill published in the GitHub repository mikeyobrien/ralph-orchestrator (3,186 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 656 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
