What it does
ralphex executes a plan task by task autonomously: each task runs in a fresh Claude Code or Codex session and then goes through a multi-pass review. Installation: `brew install umputun/apps/ralphex`, `go install github.com/umputun/ralphex/cmd/ralphex@latest` or a Docker image. Version 1.7.0 from 07.09.2026, MIT license. The README warns that unattended `claude -p` runs may be counted against a separate monthly Agent SDK credit pool and not the subscription. Plan terms may change, so check your own plan.
Who it is for. For developers who hand an agent a big plan for many hours and want a multi-pass review of each task.
Good fit when
- You need to execute a plan of many tasks without your involvement
- You need a fresh session for each task
- You need a multi-pass review of the result
Not a fit when
- You cannot let an agent edit a repository autonomously
- You cannot spend tokens unattended
Example request
Execute the plan from the file task by task in a separate branch, review after each task and show the final diffLimitations
The utility edits the repository autonomously and launches agents many times, so access is wide and token spending is hard to predict. The README warns about a possible separate billing scheme for unattended runs: check your plan terms. Work in a separate branch and in a container.
How to disable. Remove the skill from the agent's folder or the plugin through the plugin manager.
