Mac App

Native Electron wrapper available — see @apps/desktop-forge for arm64 / x64 DMGs.

Install

npm install --save-dev forge0x2b
npx forge init
npm run forge

Open → http://localhost:3002

Optional but recommended: prism0x2A with a populated .prism/ folder for code-intelligence-driven sources.

Quick start

1. Install prism0x2A in your project and run npx prism scan to generate .prism/ data — or skip this and use raw text/PDF/image sources in /build
2. Install forge0x2B: npm install --save-dev forge0x2b
3. Initialize: npx forge init
4. Diagnose: npx forge doctor — verifies config, API key, and prism blueprint
5. Start: npm run forge → http://localhost:3002
6. Configure:
   • Settings → Vault — create a master password, paste your Anthropic/OpenAI keys
   • Settings → Fleet — point at one or more project .prism/ folders
   • Settings → Default Output Language — DE / EN / FR / ES
7. Build anything from /build or compose a reusable Pipeline in /forge
