# Chief <p align="center"> <img src="assets/hero.png" alt="Chief" width="500"> </p> Build big projects with Claude. Chief breaks your work into tasks and runs Claude Code in a loop until they're done. **[Documentation](https://minicodemonkey.github.io/chief/)** · **[Quick Start](https://minicodemonkey.github.io/chief/guide/quick-start)**  ## Install ```bash brew install minicodemonkey/chief/chief ``` Or via install script: ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MiniCodeMonkey/chief/refs/heads/main/install.sh | sh ``` ## Usage ```bash # Create a new project chief new # Launch the TUI and press 's' to start chief ``` Chief runs Claude in a [Ralph Wiggum loop](https://ghuntley.com/ralph/): each iteration starts with a fresh context window, but progress is persisted between runs. This lets Claude work through large projects without hitting context limits. ## How It Works 1. **Describe your project** as a series of tasks 2. **Chief runs Claude** in a loop, one task at a time 3. **One commit per task** — clean git history, easy to review See the [documentation](https://minicodemonkey.github.io/chief/concepts/how-it-works) for details. ## Requirements - **[Claude Code CLI](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code)**, **[Codex CLI](https://developers.openai.com/codex/cli/reference)**, **[OpenCode CLI](https://opencode.ai)**, or **[Gemini CLI](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli)** installed and authenticated Use Claude by default, or configure another provider in `.chief/config.yaml`: ```yaml agent: provider: opencode cliPath: /usr/local/bin/opencode # optional ``` Or run with `chief --agent opencode` or set `CHIEF_AGENT=opencode`. Supported values for `provider` are: `claude`, `codex`, `opencode`, `cursor`, and `gemini`. ## License MIT ## Acknowledgments - [@Simon-BEE](https://github.com/Simon-BEE) — Multi-agent architecture and Codex CLI integration - [@tpaulshippy](https://github.com/tpaulshippy) — OpenCode CLI support and NDJSON parser - [snarktank/ralph](https://github.com/snarktank/ralph) — The original Ralph implementation that inspired this project - [Geoffrey Huntley](https://ghuntley.com/ralph/) — For coining the "Ralph Wiggum loop" pattern - [Bubble Tea](https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea) — TUI framework - [Lip Gloss](https://github.com/charmbracelet/lipgloss) — Terminal styling
