ralph-specum-prototype
This skill should be used only when the user explicitly invokes `$ralph-specum-prototype`, or explicitly asks Ralph Specum in Codex to run, resume, quick-run, or cancel an optional prototype.

# Ralph Specum Prototype Coordinate one optional prototype overlay. Delegate source work to a child agent and keep the main Ralph phase unchanged until the recorded handoff. ## Load the contract Derive `RALPH_CODEX_PLUGIN_ROOT` from this loaded skill: take the directory containing `SKILL.md`, then its parent `skills` directory, then the next parent. Never derive the plugin root from the project working directory. Read `../../references/prototype-coordinator.md` from this skill directory completely before any prototype mutation. Treat it as the source of truth for direct, suggested, resume, quick, cancel, isolation, review, publication, and handoff behavior. ## Route the request 1. Resolve an explicit path, exact spec name, or `.current-spec` with `"$RALPH_CODEX_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/resolve_spec_paths.py"`. Use only the returned `basePath`, `specRoot`, settings, and warnings. 2. Parse one mode: direct by default, suggested with a return phase, resume by ID, quick, or cancel by ID. 3. Reconcile candidate and final records before reserving, resuming, reviewing, or publishing. 4. Use only these mechanics: - `"$RALPH_CODEX_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/locked_state.py"` for `activePrototypes` and every state mutation - `"$RALPH_CODEX_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/prototype_records.py"` for exact candidate bytes, review receipts, immutable publication, reconciliation, and downstream selection - `"$RALPH_CODEX_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/prototype_harness.py"` for deterministic control outcomes and retry metadata 5. Spawn internal builders with child-agent tools. Store only the returned `agentId`; wait with `wait_agent` and stop with `interrupt_agent`. Never use `create_thread` or a `threadId` for an internal builder. 6. Keep normal capture, dirty-path transfer, verdict, handoff, deletion, and remote actions under explicit user control. Let quick mode own its bounded choices and continue to design after every terminal outcome. ## Completion gate Finish only after the coordinator contract verifies the immutable final bytes, removes the active entry through the locked helper, applies stale and handoff gates, and reports the local source disposition. Keep every remote pointer pending until the user authorizes that exact remote write.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a slash command", "add a command", "write a custom command", "define command arguments", "use command frontmatter", "organize commands", "create command with file references", "interactive command", "use AskUserQuestion in command", or needs guidance on slash command structure, YAML frontmatter fields, dynamic arguments, bash execution in commands, user interaction patterns, or command development best practices for Claude Code.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a hook", "add a PreToolUse/PostToolUse/Stop hook", "validate tool use", "implement prompt-based hooks", "use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}", "set up event-driven automation", "block dangerous commands", or mentions hook events (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, SubagentStop, SessionStart, SessionEnd, UserPromptSubmit, PreCompact, Notification). Provides comprehensive guidance for creating and implementing Claude Code plugin hooks with focus on advanced prompt-based hooks API.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "add MCP server", "integrate MCP", "configure MCP in plugin", "use .mcp.json", "set up Model Context Protocol", "connect external service", mentions "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} with MCP", or discusses MCP server types (SSE, stdio, HTTP, WebSocket). Provides comprehensive guidance for integrating Model Context Protocol servers into Claude Code plugins for external tool and service integration.
This skill should be used when the user asks about "plugin settings", "store plugin configuration", "user-configurable plugin", ".local.md files", "plugin state files", "read YAML frontmatter", "per-project plugin settings", or wants to make plugin behavior configurable. Documents the .claude/plugin-name.local.md pattern for storing plugin-specific configuration with YAML frontmatter and markdown content.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a plugin", "scaffold a plugin", "understand plugin structure", "organize plugin components", "set up plugin.json", "use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}", "add commands/agents/skills/hooks", "configure auto-discovery", or needs guidance on plugin directory layout, manifest configuration, component organization, file naming conventions, or Claude Code plugin architecture best practices.
This skill should be used when the user wants to "create a skill", "add a skill to plugin", "write a new skill", "improve skill description", "organize skill content", or needs guidance on skill structure, progressive disclosure, or skill development best practices for Claude Code plugins.
