MoAI-ADK v1.0.0 official release. Code quality assurance Ralph Engine, development tracking Rank System, multilingual CLI redesign, one-line curl installation, and easy GLM 4.7 switching features added.

MoAI-ADK reached version 1.0.0 and was officially released on January 12, 2026. This release marks a significant milestone transitioning from Beta to Production/Stable state.
The Ralph Engine for intelligent code quality assurance, the Rank System for development progress tracking, and CLI redesign with multilingual support are the key changes.

Key Highlights

1. Ralph Engine Introduction

The Ralph Engine is an intelligent code quality assurance system through LSP (Language Server Protocol) and AST-grep integration.
It provides real-time diagnostics for over 16 languages, performs structural pattern matching, and conducts security scanning.
Key Components:
  • LSP Integration Layer: High-level interface through MoAI LSP Client
  • LSPServerManager: Automatic server lifecycle management
  • LSP Protocol: JSON-RPC 2.0 implementation
  • AST-grep Analyzer: Support for over 20 programming languages
  • Loop Controller: Autonomous feedback loop completion detection and progress tracking
Supported Languages:
Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, Go, Rust, Java, C/C++, C#, Ruby, PHP, Kotlin, Swift, Elixir, and over 16 more
Security Scanning:
Provides security rule scanning by severity levels to proactively detect security vulnerabilities during the coding phase.

2. Rank System Addition

A dashboard TUI that tracks development activities in real-time has been added. Hook-based monitoring visualizes development progress.
Features:
  • Real-time progress tracking
  • Development activity statistics collection
  • Dashboard TUI interface
  • Hook-based event monitoring
Public Service:
The MoAI Rank service was launched together. Users can analyze their Claude Code session data to check their ranking and agentic coding statistics.

3. Major CLI Redesign

A CLI with significantly improved user experience has been introduced.
Simplified Init Flow:
The project initialization process has been simplified for quick start.
Multilingual Support:
Supports four languages: English, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. CLI messages are displayed in the language appropriate for the user environment.
Command Aliases:
The moai-wt alias has been added to the moai-worktree command. For convenience, both moai-adk or moai commands can be used.

4. One-Line curl Installation

A curl installation script including GitHub Pages deployment is provided. Installation can be done with a single line without complex setup process.
Bash
curl -fsSL https://moai-adk.github.io/MoAI-ADK/install.sh | sh

5. Easy GLM 4.7 Switching

Switching between GLM 4.7 and Claude has become convenient. Automatically adds or removes GLM key settings to settings.local.json in the project folder.
Bash
# Switch to GLM
moai glm


# Switch to Claude
moai cc  # or moai claude

Ralph Engine Details

The Ralph Engine was implemented according to the SPEC-RALPH-001 specification. It detects quality issues in real-time during coding and provides feedback.

Loop Controller

A Loop Controller that manages autonomous feedback loops has been added. Automatically detects task completion and tracks progress.
Slash Commands:
  • /moai:loop: Start autonomous feedback loop
  • /moai:fix: Execute quick fix task
  • /moai:cancel-loop: Cancel running loop
State Persistence:
Saves and restores task state through LoopState and LoopStorage. Ensures task continuity between sessions.

Test Coverage

The Ralph Engine has been validated with 302 tests. Maintains over 80% code coverage.
