Progress visibility

Openrajathsalegameopened 8mo ago

Is there any way to visualize progress of individual agents and what they're doing inside of the ralph loop? Running ./scripts/ralph/ralph.sh --tool claude 20 but I unfortunately only see Ralph Iteration 1 of 20 (claude).

Would be super helpful! I don't understand why an iteration is hanging.

Seeing only Iteration 1 of 20 is exactly the kind of signal that feels informative but is operationally useless.

The real question is not "which iteration am I on?" It is:

  • what did the agent actually change
  • what step is it blocked on right now
  • what evidence says the run is advancing instead of just narrating work
  • what condition would force it to stop

That is why a lot of loop tooling feels opaque even when it is technically printing status.

A small progress surface that shows last meaningful delta, current blocker, and stop reason would usually be more valuable than a more verbose transcript.

This is one of the reasons newer control/evidence tooling has started moving toward receipt-style run summaries instead of only loop counters and raw output.
