PRD Execution

Multi-session projects that survive context loss

Variable (10-120 iterations)Manual: Impossible without the pattern

The stateless execution pattern for complex projects. A PRD file holds all state: current phase, iteration count, next action, blockers. Each invocation reads state, executes one action, writes state. Zero memory held in context. 42 PRDs, 300+ iterations, zero lost state.

Workflow Steps

1

Plan

/deep-planning

Generate PRD with phases, success criteria, escape hatches

2

Execute

/ralph-execute

Read state, execute one action, write state, signal

3

Verify

/ralph-execute

Check success criteria and quality gates

4

Iterate

/ralph-execute

Continue until TASK_COMPLETE or BLOCKED

Example

A 25-phase SEO domination campaign spanning 3 weeks. Each iteration reads the PRD, performs one action (write an outline, build a page template, deploy), updates state, and signals ready. Session breaks, context compaction, and agent handoffs: none lose state — the Knowledge OS execution layer in action.
