Forge DevKit vs Manual CLAUDE.md
Writing CLAUDE.md by hand is a start. Forge generates it from your actual architecture.
| Dimension | Manual CLAUDE.md | Forge DevKit |
|---|---|---|
| Creation | Manual writing - whatever you remember | Auto-generated from 7-gate architecture audit |
| Coverage | What you think to include | 50+ quality patterns, 15 rationalization detectors |
| Test connection | Not connected to tests | forge-qa generates tests from same requirements |
| Maintenance | Manual updates when codebase changes | Upgrade command regenerates from current state |
| Pipeline | Just rules in one file | Full ecosystem: rules + product + tests + tasks + parallel execution |
A hand-written CLAUDE.md is better than nothing. Forge DevKit generates a comprehensive one from your architecture - and connects it to product specs, tests, and task management.
