Shared DevResults agent skills live in this repository.
Run the open skills CLI and follow the prompts:
npx skills add DevResults/skillsWhen prompted:
- Select the skills you want — or pick all of them.
- Installation scope: choose
Globalso the skills are available in every project. - Installation method: choose
Symlink. This is what makes updating easy (see below). - Install targets: if you're using Claude Code or Pi, add them manually when asked.
That's it — the selected skills are now available to your agent.
Pull the latest version of every skill you've installed:
npx skills updateTo update only your global skills, or specific ones by name:
npx skills update -g # only global skills
npx skills update new-pr task-to-ralph # only these named skillsTo pick up newly added skills (ones you didn't select the first time), re-run the install command and select them:
npx skills add DevResults/skillsYou can see what you currently have installed with npx skills list (add -g for just the global ones).
Skills should follow the Agent Skills conventions and should be stored under skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md. Each SKILL.md needs YAML frontmatter with name and description, followed by concise instructions. Put detailed reference material in references/, reusable scripts in scripts/, and output templates or static assets in assets/ inside that skill folder.
Two skills work together to break a spec into tasks and execute them one at a time:
/task-to-ralph <spec-file>— reads a spec and writes a task list to.ralph/todo.md./ralph-work— works through.ralph/todo.mdone task at a time, dispatching a fresh subagent per task to keep context clean between tasks.
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
.ralph/todo.md |
Task list generated by /task-to-ralph. Tracks TODO and Completed tasks. |
.ralph/prompt.md |
Per-repo agent prompt injected into each subagent. Scaffolded from the ralph-work asset template on first run. |
Add .ralph/ to your project's .gitignore to keep these working files out of version control. /ralph-work will offer to do this for you on first run.
