ralph-orchestrator
Ralph Orchestrator is an open-source tool for orchestrating AI agents using a hat-based loop mechanism. It ensures that agents continuously perform tasks until completion, eliminating the need for manual intervention in multi-step AI workflows. The hat metaphor represents the current task or role assigned to an agent, and the orchestrator manages the passing of hats among agents to achieve complex goals. This design simplifies the coordination of multiple AI agents, making it easier to build autonomous systems that can reason, plan, and execute actions iteratively. By keeping agents in a loop until done, Ralph Orchestrator aims to provide a robust foundation for agentic AI applications.
