Domain Knowledge

Domain Knowledge is a skill for Claude Code from nxtg-ai/forge-plugin. It costs 99 tokens per session (1,401 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Reference material that explains NXTG-Forge, an AI development system for Claude Code. It covers project specifications, task planning, agent coordination, saved work state, quality checks, and the Forge command-line tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when onboarding to NXTG-Forge or answering questions about its architecture, commands, agents, project state, specifications, and MCP integration.
Why use it?
It gives developers the background needed to understand how the system turns a written project description into planned and coordinated implementation work. It also explains the roles of the separate dashboard, command-line tool, and Claude Code plugin.

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

Domain Knowledge 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 1mo 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.

NXTG-Forge Domain Knowledge

What NXTG-Forge is

A self-deploying AI development infrastructure for Claude Code. Not just a code generator — an intelligent scaffolding + orchestration system that reads a project's specification, plans tasks, dispatches specialized agents, and tracks state across the development lifecycle.

Mission: "From specification to production in minutes, not days."

It bridges idea → implementation by: (1) turning a natural-language spec into a task plan, (2) orchestrating specialized agents, (3) persisting state for recovery, (4) surfacing quality gaps, (5) integrating natively with Claude Code.

Problem it solves: static templates don't adapt; ordinary scaffolds have no context memory, no orchestration, no state, and no quality signal. NXTG-Forge adds AI-native intelligence to all four.

The 3-repo workspace (real, not a monorepo)

forge-ui/            React 19 + Vite dashboard (:5050)
forge-orchestrator/  Rust CLI + MCP server — binary: `forge`
forge-plugin/        Claude Code plugin (commands/agents/skills/hooks) — this repo

Integration is MCP-only; there are no cross-repo code imports.

Core concepts (at a glance)

  1. Project Specification — natural-language build description. forge plan --generate reads SPEC.md (or PRD.md/REQUIREMENTS.md/README.md).
  2. Agent Orchestration — work split across specialized roles (Lead Architect, Backend Master, CLI Artisan, Platform Builder, Integration Specialist, QA Sentinel), each backed by an agent-* sibling skill.
  3. State Management — persisted to .forge/state.json with an append-only audit log at .forge/events.jsonl.
  4. Clean Architecture — Domain → Application → Infrastructure → Interface, dependencies pointing inward only.
  5. Drift / Gap Analysis — health + gap signals via MCP tools (forge_get_health, forge_check_drift, forge_get_governance_health).
  6. MCP Integration — plugin registers governance-mcp (Node) + orchestrator-mcp (Rust); semgrep-mcp optional.

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

Domain Knowledge is a skill published in the GitHub repository nxtg-ai/forge-plugin (6 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 99 tokens to every session and 1,401 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
