Rawwerks Ralph Eats Beads

rawwerks-ralph-eats-beads is a Claude Code plugin for the Build phase that runs an autonomous Ralph-style coding loop using bd beads for parallel subagent task picking and shipping.

by rawwerks · github.com/rawwerks/ralph-eats-beads

Run a hands-off Ralph-style coding loop where bd tracks beads tasks while subagents pick work in parallel and ship until the queue is empty.

About

What it does

rawwerks-ralph-eats-beads is a Claude Code plugin that packages an autonomous AI coding loop on top of bd for task management with beads. Solo builders who want the agent to keep implementing without hand-holding each step install it when they already decompose work into trackable units and want parallel subagents to pick, execute, and ship features until nothing ready remains. The loop is meant for sustained build and iterate sessions rather than one-off prompts: you get orchestration semantics (picking, parallel runs, sleep-and-continue) instead of a single skill that writes one file. It fits indie operators running Claude Code as a factory line on a backlog, especially when combined with observability so you can see what the loop did overnight. Expect agent-tooling complexity—bd and loop conventions must be in place—and treat it as automation infrastructure, not a replacement for validation or launch distribution work.

Highlights

  • Autonomous while-sleep coding loop driven by bd bead task management
  • Parallel subagent picking and execution with Ralph-loop style iteration
  • Observability hooks for loop state, ready work, and shipped outcomes
  • Keyword surface: beads, parallel, subagents, ships, sleep, observability
  • Single-plugin bundle from rawwerks/ralph-eats-beads (pluginCount: 1)

Why builders use it

Manually babysitting every agent turn burns founder time and leaves parallelizable backlog work idle while you sleep.

After install, Claude Code can loop on bd-managed beads with subagents picking ready work in parallel until features ship with observable progress.

FAQ

Who is rawwerks-ralph-eats-beads for?

It is for Claude Code users who run bd bead backlogs and want Ralph-style autonomous loops with parallel subagents instead of manual step-by-step coding sessions.

When should I use rawwerks-ralph-eats-beads?

Use it during Build and Operate iterate cycles when tasks are broken into ready beads and you want the agent to pick, implement, and ship continuously with observability.

How do I add rawwerks-ralph-eats-beads to my agent?

Install the plugin from the rawwerks/ralph-eats-beads repository into Claude Code, ensure bd beads task management is configured, then invoke the bundled plugin skill for the autonomous loop.
