Summary
Fixes the
PROMPT_PARTS[*]: unbound variablecrash in the ralph-loop plugin when invoked without arguments (/ralph-loop).Closes #18496
Changes
plugins/ralph-wiggum/scripts/setup-ralph-loop.sh: Changed${PROMPT_PARTS[*]}to${PROMPT_PARTS[*]:-}on line 113 to provide a default empty string when the array is emptyRoot Cause
The script uses
set -euo pipefail(line 6), which enablesset -u(treat unset variables as errors). When/ralph-loopis called with no arguments,PROMPT_PARTSremains an empty array. On bash 3.2 (macOS default), referencing${PROMPT_PARTS[*]}on an empty array triggers an "unbound variable" error, crashing the script before it can reach the "No prompt provided" validation message on line 116.Testing
Verified both cases with bash under
set -euo pipefail:🤖 Generated with Claude Code
