Everything you need to see what your AI is doing
LazyRalph makes AI-driven development transparent, structured, and controllable.
Ralph Wiggum Methodology Built In
LazyRalph is the native tool for the Ralph Wiggum AI development methodology. The structured approach to AI-assisted development isn't a bolt-on — it's the foundation everything is built on.
RPI Pipeline — Research, Plan, Implement
The research-plan-implement pattern made visible. See each phase as a distinct stage with its own context, artifacts, and checkpoints. No more black-box prompt-and-pray.
Unified Task Model
No modes, no confusion. Every task is a prompt. The AI analyzes complexity and proposes the right pipeline of stages. Simple tasks get simple pipelines. Complex tasks get research, planning, sliced implementation, and review.
CI/CD-style Stages View
See your task as a horizontal pipeline. Each stage shows what context it received, what it produced, and where you can intervene. Pause, adjust, and continue at any point.
Clarity Gates
The AI asks before it guesses. At every stage, if it doesn't have enough information, it pauses and asks you — not at the start, but at the point of need. No more wasted cycles on wrong assumptions.
Should the dark mode toggle persist across sessions using localStorage, or should it sync with the user's OS preference?
Artifact Transparency
Every stage produces readable artifacts — plans, research, reviews — you can annotate, discuss, and modify. Select any text to ask questions, suggest improvements, or leave comments.
## Implementation Steps
1. Create toggle component
2. Add theme context provider
3. Persist preference to localStorage
4. Update CSS variables
Chat as Command Center
Project-level and task-level chat. Chat between stages to iterate on artifacts. Chat at the project level to create tasks, check status, and navigate your work.
Can we skip the review stage for this one?
Sure. I've updated the pipeline to: Plan → Implement. Ready to start?
Go ahead.
