Usage Guide

Complete command reference for all 6 Forge DevKit modules.

All commands run inside your AI session (Claude Code, Cursor, or Claude Desktop). Forge DevKit is a plugin system — commands become available after installation.

forge-core

Core+

Architecture audit, guardrail generation, and dev-pipeline orchestration.

/forge:setup Setup wizard, ecosystem dashboard, upgrade, and reconfigure.
/forge:setup Run the 7-gate wizard (first time) or show the ecosystem dashboard (after setup)
/forge:setup upgrade --check Check for plugin updates
/forge:setup upgrade Apply available updates
/forge:setup reconfigure Re-run specific gates without full setup
/forge:patch Quick config patches without running the full wizard.
/forge:patch Interactive patch mode — select what to adjust
/dev Start a development task using the generated pipeline.
/dev Begin a feature/fix using your project's dev-skills and quality patterns
/forge:sync Sync generated artifacts after architecture changes
/forge:close Finalize and close the current development task

Typical workflow: Install → /forge:setup (7-gate audit) → /dev to start building. Run /forge:setup anytime for dashboard.
