Event loop configuration.

Fields

prompt: Option<String>

Inline prompt text (mutually exclusive with prompt_file).

prompt_file: String

Path to the prompt file.

completion_promise: String

Event topic that signals loop completion (must be emitted via ralph emit).

max_iterations: u32

Maximum number of iterations before timeout.

max_runtime_seconds: u64

Maximum runtime in seconds.

max_cost_usd: Option<f64>

Maximum cost in USD before stopping.

max_consecutive_failures: u32

Stop after this many consecutive failures.

cooldown_delay_seconds: u64

Delay in seconds before starting the next iteration. Skipped when the next iteration is triggered by a human event.

starting_hat: Option<String>

Starting hat for multi-hat mode (deprecated, use starting_event instead).

starting_event: Option<String>

Event to publish after Ralph completes initial coordination.

When custom hats are defined, Ralph handles task.start to do gap analysis and planning, then publishes this event to delegate to the first hat.

Example: starting_event: "tdd.start" for TDD workflow.

If not specified and hats are defined, Ralph will determine the appropriate event from the hat topology.

mutation_score_warn_threshold: Option<f64>

Warn when mutation testing score drops below this percentage (0-100).

Warning-only: build.done is still accepted even if below threshold.

persistent: bool

When true, LOOP_COMPLETE does not terminate the loop.

Instead of exiting, the loop injects a task.resume event and continues idling until new work arrives (human guidance, Telegram commands, etc.). The loop will only terminate on hard limits (max_iterations, max_runtime, max_cost), consecutive failures, or explicit interrupt/stop.
