How to Set Up and Use Forge
Forge is a Claude Code plugin that brings structured planning, parallel execution in git worktrees, and deep validation to AI-assisted software development. It exposes seven MCP tools — including plan validation, cross-session memory, and structured logging — so that a single /forge command can break a feature request into modules, implement them in isolation, and verify each one before merging. It is designed for developers who want autonomous, multi-step coding workflows without manually orchestrating each step.
Prerequisites
- Claude Code CLI installed and authenticated
- Node.js 18 or later (for the forge-mcp-server)
- Git initialized in your project directory
- Claude Code plugin marketplace access (or ability to clone and copy files manually)
Install Forge via the Claude Code plugin marketplace
The fastest installation path uses the Claude Code plugin marketplace to pull agents, skills, and the MCP server in one step.
claude plugin marketplace add TT-Wang/forge
claude plugin install forge@tt-wang-pluginsOr install manually by cloning the repository
If the marketplace is unavailable, clone the repo and copy agents, skills, and the MCP server into your project's .claude directory.
git clone https://github.com/TT-Wang/forge.git /tmp/forge
mkdir -p .claude/agents .claude/skills
cp /tmp/forge/agents/*.md .claude/agents/
cp -r /tmp/forge/skills/* .claude/skills/
cp -r /tmp/forge/forge-mcp-server ./forge-mcp-server/
cd forge-mcp-server && npm install && cd ..Register the Forge MCP server in .claude/settings.json
Wire the local MCP server so Claude Code can call the seven Forge tools during sessions.
{
"mcpServers": {
"forge": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["./forge-mcp-server/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}Run a Forge workflow with /forge
Invoke the orchestrator skill with a plain-English objective. Forge will plan the work, create git worktrees, implement each module in parallel, and validate results.
/forge add JWT auth with refresh tokensCheck progress with /forge-status
At any point during a long workflow, use the status skill to see the current plan, which modules are complete, and any recalled patterns from previous sessions.
/forge-statusRe-validate a specific module with /forge-validate
If a module fails validation or you want to re-run checks after a manual edit, target it by module number.
/forge-validate m2Forge Examples
Client configuration
Register the Forge MCP server in your project's .claude/settings.json to expose all seven tools to Claude Code.
{
"mcpServers": {
"forge": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["./forge-mcp-server/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}Prompts to try
Typical Forge slash commands for autonomous feature development.
- "/forge add JWT auth with refresh tokens"
- "/forge build an audit log for admin actions"
- "/forge add rate limiting middleware to the Express API"
- "/forge-status"
- "/forge-validate m3"Troubleshooting Forge
The forge-mcp-server fails to start with 'Cannot find module' error
Run 'npm install && npm run build' inside the forge-mcp-server directory to compile the TypeScript source before starting Claude Code.
memory_recall returns no results for a previously completed project
Cross-session memory is stored in the local MCP server's data directory. Ensure you are running the server from the same project root as the original session so the memory store path matches.
Git worktree creation fails during parallel execution
Forge creates worktrees relative to the project root. Make sure your repository has at least one commit and that you are not inside a bare clone or a submodule.
