Ralph Feedback Batch Protocol

Use this skill when a Ralph-v2 workflow is at rest and a human provides structured feedback for a new iteration.

Directory Layout

Feedback batches live at:

.ralph-sessions/<SESSION_ID>/iterations/<N+1>/feedbacks/<yyyyMMdd-HHmmss>/

Artifacts such as logs or screenshots should be stored beside feedbacks.md.

Orchestrator Transition Rules

When feedback is detected for iteration N+1:

1. Record PREVIOUS_STATE = metadata.yaml.orchestrator.state.
2. Set iteration = N+1.
3. Update metadata.yaml:
   • orchestrator.state: REPLANNING
   • orchestrator.previous_state: <PREVIOUS_STATE>
   • iteration: <N+1>
4. Enter the replanning workflow.
5. Let Planner decide whether to take the knowledge-promotion fast path or the full replanning pipeline.
