Automated summary

Quickly diagnoses and fixes issues in an existing project by auto-detecting the project type and running multiple checks.

Strengths

  • Automatic detection of project type and framework
  • Runs comprehensive diagnostics (environment, security, tests, dependencies, logs)
  • Generates a targeted fix plan based on analysis
  • Optional auto-run mode to immediately apply fixes

Limitations

  • Requires the project to have a recognizable structure
  • May not catch all domain-specific issues
  • Automatic analysis can be intrusive if it modifies configurations
When to use it

Use this skill when you need to quickly fix bugs or quality issues in an existing codebase without setting up a full PRD workflow.

When not to use it

Avoid using it for highly complex or niche projects where deep human analysis is better, or when you don't want automated changes to files.

Security analysis

Caution
Quality score85/100

The skill uses Bash for legitimate diagnostic and fix purposes, which is powerful but could be exploited if untrusted inputs are processed. No explicit destructive or exfiltration instructions, but caution is warranted.

Findings
  • •Uses Bash tool which can execute arbitrary commands. The diagnostics (environment-doctor, security-auditor, etc.) may run potentially dangerous commands automatically.
How this analysis is made

Examples

Fix a Node.js project with security issues
Run ralph-fix on the Node.js project in ./my-project to diagnose and fix security vulnerabilities and other issues.
Analyze project without making changes
Use ralph-fix with --analyze-only to diagnose issues in the current project without generating a fix plan.

Ralph Ultra Quick Fix

Rapidly diagnose and fix issues in an existing project.

What this does

  1. Auto-detects project type and framework
  2. Runs diagnostics — environment-doctor, security-auditor, flaky-test-detector
  3. Creates minimal .ralph-ultra/ setup if not present
  4. Generates fix PRD — Targeted stories for identified issues
  5. Optionally runs the fix loop immediately

Usage

/ralph-ultra:ralph-fix [--dir path] [--analyze-only] [--auto-run]

Options

| Option | Default | Description | |--------|---------|-------------| | --dir | . | Project directory to fix | | --analyze-only | false | Only analyze, don't create fix plan | | --auto-run | false | Immediately run fix loop after analysis |

Diagnostics Run

  1. Environment Doctor — Runtime versions, missing deps, stale caches
  2. Security Auditor — Vulnerabilities, hardcoded secrets, insecure patterns
  3. Flaky Test Detector — Intermittent test failures
  4. Dependency Updater — Outdated packages, known CVEs
  5. Log Analyzer — Recent error patterns

Example

Fix a Node.js project with security issues:

/ralph-ultra:ralph-fix --dir ./my-project

From the file to a first result

The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.

View the source and supporting files

This download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.

1. Download the file

Download SKILL.md

From the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.

Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.

mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/download' --output '.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/SKILL.md'

2. Check prerequisites

Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.

Tools declared by the author (check availability in your agent): Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep, Glob

No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.

The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.

3. Load the skill

After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

Claude Code
test -f '.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.claude/skills' && test ! -e '.claude/skills/ralph-fix' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8' '.claude/skills/ralph-fix'

OpenSkills

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.

Official OpenSkills installation
openskills install './.skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8'

openskills read 'ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8'

Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.

For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.

openskills sync

Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.

4. Try a first task

Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:

Read .skill-downloads/ralph-ultra-quick-fix-mmbizjd8/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.

Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
