A Ralph Docker session ran overnight with unlimited iterations, creating 67 empty workspace branches and consuming 71% of my weekly Sonnet token allotment — with zero productive output. Here's the forensic analysis and the fix.
Read More →Ralph-docker now has a built-in setup command that interviews you and generates all project files via Claude — no external skill required. Plus, a rewrite of the README to put observability front and center.

Read More →A session where Claude Code reviewed four open PRs on a Go/RabbitMQ event system, identified bugs ranging from mutex contention to JSON schema mismatches, and fixed them all — merging three and leaving one ready to go.
