forge CLAUDE.md

forge CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from firatcand/forge. It costs 463 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Forge that combine its development methods with the repository's project specification and coding commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when starting work in Forge, running its build, tests, type checks, or development server, and changing framework code that becomes part of its public release.
Why use it?
They help new contributors load the right project context and distinguish the framework's working method from the repository's intended product behaviour.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/firatcand/forge

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

forge CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

This project uses Forge. The methodology below is imported from a local file regenerated by forge upgrade. New collaborator? Install Forge with:

npm install -g @firatcand/forge
forge upgrade

First time opening this repo in Claude Code? You'll see a one-time prompt asking permission to load .forge/CONTEXT.md. Accept it — without that approval, Claude Code silently skips the import and the methodology context won't be available.

@.forge/CONTEXT.md

The import below pulls in THIS project's spec — the synthesized BRIEF/PRD/SPEC (the "what", vs. the methodology "how" above). It is committed and generated by /ingest-spec (a stub until you run it), so it travels with the repo.

@spec/CONTEXT.md

forge

Note: This is the forge repo itself. Iterating on this repo means iterating on the framework — every change ships to npm publish @firatcand/forge and lands on adopter machines via npx @firatcand/forge. Treat all changes as public-API.

Stack

Commands

  • Build: npm run build
  • Test: npm test
  • Type check: npm run typecheck
  • Lint: npm run lint (ESLint — unused vars/imports + unreachable; non-blocking, warnings only)
  • Dev: npm run dev
  • Render methodology context (one-shot, until Phase B's forge upgrade ships): npm run forge:render-context

Conventions

  • Functional components only, no class components
  • Always handle errors explicitly — no silent catches
  • New API routes must have input validation
  • See spec/ for full conventions

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
