Prototype 03

Ralph Loop

8do-mcp

Verdict-gated task orchestration. Evidence-based verification with ACCEPT/REVISE/REJECT gates and circuit breaker safety. Philosophy: "Success = Imperfect AI x Persistent Loop x External Verification".

Key Capabilities

Evidence over opinion, safety over speed

Verdict gates

ACCEPT/REVISE/REJECT based on evidence, not opinion

Circuit breaker

Configurable failure threshold halts runaway loops

Priority queue

Tasks processed in priority order with lane separation

Retry with feedback

REVISE loops carry specific failure context for targeted fixes

Verdict Gates

Three possible outcomes per task cycle

ACCEPT

All evidence checks pass. Task moves to complete. Output is trusted.

REVISE

Some checks fail. Task loops back for another attempt with specific feedback.

REJECT

Fundamental failure or circuit breaker tripped. Task halted with reasoning.

Evidence Checks

External verification sources driving verdict decisions

Lint

Static analysis — code style, import ordering, unused variables

Typecheck

Type verification — mypy, tsc, or equivalent for the project language

Test

Automated test suite — unit, integration, and snapshot tests

Build

Compilation and bundling — ensures the artifact is deployable

Integration Points

Part of the Adaptivearts.ai interpretive loop infrastructure

SPINE OODA

OODA provides the reasoning cycle; 8do-mcp provides the verdict gate.

evaluation-mcp (Evalla)

Rubric-based quality scoring feeds into verdict decisions.
