Plugin Claude Code

Vibe-coded plans go in. Only what survives ships. An agentic shipping loop for Claude Code, built on the Ralph Loop.

dormstern/forge

Plugin Claude Code

Devil's Advocate against any plan, plus a discipline harness for shipping products with Claude Code. Run /forge:try for a 30-second demo. Three filters every release: question, delete, audit. Built on the Ralph Loop.

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use during PM mode BUILD with FRESH context per feature. Implements the minimum code to pass the tests written by test-writer. Max 3 resets per feature. Reads architecture.md (relevant module only) + progress.md top sections + contracts.md if applicable. Flags REWORK / BREAKINGCHANGE / TECHDEBT. Qualityscore is…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use to falsify any plan, pitch, PRD, thesis, or release before commitment. Attacks every hypothesis, runs a pre-mortem (≥5 scenarios), audits evidence for cherry-picking and source-diversity skew, stress-tests defensibility (replicability, erosion, network effects, Thiel's 7), separates existential vs non-existential…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use during PM mode BUILD every 5 completed features, or anytime the user wants a drift audit. Audits the last 5 features against IDENTITY.md (WHO/JOB/NEVER), Architecture Constraints, contracts (if contractmode != "none"), and rework patterns. Returns CONTINUE / DISCUSS / PIVOT / CONTRACTHALT and flags STABILIZE if…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use after a SHAPE plan is approved in PM mode to decompose the plan into buildable features for the Ralph Loop. Additive mode for existing products (extends features.json without re-implementing). Every feature gets signalid + requestedby + autonomy tier + dependson. Sized for a single context window (3-7 acceptance…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use during Founder mode INTERROGATE phase — generates Mom-Test + JTBD interview protocols (10–15 questions traced to hypotheses), analyzes raw transcripts, extracts JTBD four-forces (Push/Pull/Anxiety/Habit), tags evidence by weight (behavioral=3, mixed=2, stated-intent=1), and flags false positives (innovation…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use when scouting communities for product signals during Founder mode SCOUT phase, or when the user wants to mine Reddit/G2/HN/ProductHunt/Crunchbase for pain, willingness-to-pay, competitor moves, or contradictory evidence on a hypothesis. Returns a structured SCOUT report with verbatim quotes, source URLs, and new…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use to manage a full Forge from start to finish, in either Founder mode (SCOUT → INTERROGATE → SYNTHESIZE → TEST) or PM mode (HARVEST → SHAPE → BUILD → SHIP). Auto-detects mode from state files. Enforces phase order, mandatory Devil's Advocate after every INTERROGATE, mandatory drift check every 5 features, mandatory…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use during PM mode BUILD before the builder runs. Writes 3–7 acceptance tests per feature in the project's test framework. For API features when contractmode="full", contract-compliance tests come FIRST. For removal features, includes "is gone" + "adjacent features unaffected" tests. Tests are the spec — they must…

dormstern/forge

Agent

Use during Founder mode SYNTHESIZE phase. Integrates new evidence into THESIS.md, scores per-section confidence on 1–5 rubric with hard caps (single source → cap 3, all stated-intent → cap 3, 5 requires behavioral + commitments), audits claims for UNSUPPORTED / WEAK / CONTESTED, tracks trajectory across cycles…

dormstern/forge

Command

PM mode — Ralph Loop. Select feature (wave-aware, deps met, debt-first), write 3–7 acceptance tests, build until green (max 3 resets, fresh context), commit per autonomy tier, calculate qualityscore, append learnings. Drift check every 5 features.

dormstern/forge

Command

Run a full cycle end-to-end. Auto-routes to Founder mode (SCOUT → INTERROGATE → SYNTHESIZE → TEST) or PM mode (HARVEST → SHAPE → BUILD → SHIP) based on which state files exist in the project.

dormstern/forge

Command

Standalone drift check. Audits the last 5 completed features against IDENTITY.md (WHO/JOB/NEVER), contracts.md, architecture.md, and rework patterns. Returns CONTINUE / DISCUSS / PIVOT / CONTRACTHALT recommendation.

dormstern/forge

Command

Standalone Devil's Advocate. Paste any plan, pitch, PRD, or thesis and the agent runs 8 attack vectors (cherry-picking, false champion, cope moat, TAM mirage, weak wedge, timeline cope, replicability, distribution) plus pre-mortem and returns a kill report.

dormstern/forge

Command

Founder mode — check graduation against 12 criteria. If ready, hand off THESIS.md to PM-mode IDENTITY.md (WHO/JOB/NEVER), seed initial features and signals, write the Graduation Brief.

dormstern/forge

Command

PM mode — collect signals from feedback, analytics, tickets, competitive observations, and the codebase. Categorize each, assess thesisimpact, flag invalidations, refresh architecture.md incrementally.

dormstern/forge

Command

One-screen orientation to Forge — modes, commands, state files, the three filters. Run this first if you're confused about where to start, what /init does, or which command applies to your situation. Also use to remind yourself of the command index without leaving Claude Code.

dormstern/forge

Command

Scaffold Forge state files into the user's project for the first time. Welcomes new users with a plain-English mode question (no methodology jargon), copies templates non-destructively, pre-fills IDENTITY/THESIS where possible, and routes to the next command. Defaults to Founder mode for empty directories, PM mode…

dormstern/forge

Command

Founder mode — generate interview protocol, analyze transcripts, and run a mandatory Devil's Advocate falsification pass. Outputs interview summaries with JTBD forces, evidence-weighted entries, and an existential-risk audit.

dormstern/forge

Command

Founder mode — run market scout. Parallel community mining across Reddit, G2, Hacker News, ProductHunt, Crunchbase using the 7-signal framework. Updates landscape.md, hypotheses.json, evidence.json.

dormstern/forge

Command

PM mode — propose a release plan with thesis, feature candidates (signalid + requestedby), debt paydown (15%), kill list (≥10% via the 10% Delete Rule), autonomy tiers (T1/T2/T3), Devil's Advocate findings, and stabilization check. The hero command — produces the screenshottable release plan card.

dormstern/forge

Command

PM mode — close the release. Validate contracts, refresh architecture.md, log release in releases.json with metrics + quality scores, check stabilization triggers for next cycle, present release report.

dormstern/forge

Command

Show current Forge phase and a one-screen state snapshot. Mode (Founder / PM), current phase, recent feature quality, signals harvested, stabilization triggers, drift report status.
