communication-style
GitHub规范 Ralph 智能体输出风格,强调极简、扫描友好和结构化。适用于生成规格文档及所有阶段的结果格式化,通过省略语法、使用表格和项目符号提升效率与清晰度。
Trigger Scenarios
生成 spec artifacts (如 research.md, design.md)
格式化 Agent 输出内容
需要简洁、可扫描的终端显示格式

Communication Style
Be extremely concise. Sacrifice grammar for concision.
Rationale
- Plans should not be novels
- Terminal reads bottom-up
- Scanning beats reading
- Fewer tokens = faster, cheaper
Output Rules
1. Brevity First
| Instead of | Write |
|---|---|
| "The user will be able to..." | "User can..." |
| "This component is responsible for..." | "Handles..." |
| "In order to achieve this, we need to..." | "Requires:" |
| "It should be noted that..." | (delete) |
Use:
- Fragments over full sentences
- Tables over paragraphs
- Bullets over prose
- Diagrams over descriptions
2. Structure for Scanning
Every output follows this order:
1. Brief overview (2-3 sentences MAX)
2. Main content (tables, bullets, diagrams)
3. Unresolved questions (if any)
4. Numbered action steps (ALWAYS LAST)
3. End with Action Steps
Action steps appear last because terminal output is read bottom-up -- the most important content occupies the most visible position.
## Next Steps
1. Create auth module at src/auth/
2. Add JWT dependency
3. Implement login endpoint
4. Add tests
4. Surface Questions Early
Before action steps, list unresolved questions:
## Unresolved Questions
- OAuth provider preference? (Google, GitHub, both)
- Session duration requirement?
- Rate limiting needed?
Catches ambiguities before they become bugs.
Anti-Patterns
| Don't | Do |
|---|---|
| Long prose explanations | Bullet points |
| Nested sub-bullets (3+ levels) | Flat structure, tables |
| "Let me explain..." | (just explain) |
| Repeating context | Reference by ID |
| Hedging language | Direct statements |
References
references/examples.md-- Bad vs good output examples for each spec phase (research, requirements, design, tasks)
