Where are workflow definitions stored?

Workflows are stored as YAML files within the .claude/workflows/ directory of your project repository.

How do I iterate over multiple tasks in a sprint?

You can use a 'for-each: step' phase in your workflow, which will loop through every step defined in your SPRINT.yaml and apply the specified sub-workflow to each.

Can I run background tasks during a workflow?

Yes, by using per-iteration hooks in Ralph Mode with the 'parallel: true' setting, you can run deterministic tasks like learning extraction or validation in the background.

What template variables are available for workflows?

Common variables include {{step.prompt}}, {{step.id}}, and {{step.index}} for iterations, as well as global variables like {{sprint.id}}, {{sprint.name}}, and {{phase.id}}.

What is 'Ralph Mode' in a workflow?

Ralph Mode enables autonomous, goal-driven execution where Claude dynamically creates and evaluates its own steps based on a goal prompt rather than following a rigid sequence of predefined phases.

Productivity & Workflow

Defines and manages modular execution paths for automated AI development sprints and task orchestration.

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for authoring sprint workflow definitions within the .claude/workflows/ directory. It enables developers to structure complex tasks into manageable phases, implement 'for-each' logic for step iteration, and leverage 'Ralph Mode' for autonomous, goal-driven execution. By providing standardized YAML schemas and template variable support, it allows for the creation of consistent, repeatable, and highly sophisticated AI development patterns ranging from simple sequential bug fixes to complex feature implementations.
