Forge by ShipToday

Free, AI-powered product development lifecycle automation for Claude Code.

What it does

Just describe what you want to build — Forge automatically routes your request through structured PDLC workflows. No trigger words needed.

> implement user authentication with OAuth
> fix the checkout page crash on mobile
> break down the notifications feature into stories
> estimate story points for PROJ-123
> check status of my feature

What's included

• Forge MCP Server (.mcp.json) — connects to the hosted Forge orchestration engine at https://teams.shiptoday.ai/mcp. Exposes forge__start_workflow, forge__update_state, forge__abandon_workflow, forge__get_workflow, forge__save_workflow, forge__delete_workflow, and forge__list_skills_catalog.
• forge-autopilot skill — automatically detects product-development intent (feature requests, bug reports, PR reviews, story breakdowns, status checks, tracked work-item keys like PROJ-123) and routes the request to the right Forge workflow.
• forge-workflow skill — conversational management for organization admins to author new Forge workflows or delete existing org- or team-scoped overrides.
• Hooks (hooks/hooks.json) — four hooks coordinate session state:
  • UserPromptSubmit → prompt-router.cjs (advisory routing on epic-key references; continuation for active workflows)
  • Stop → stop-observer.cjs (passive session observation and silent checkpoints to record engineering time)
  • PreToolUse → workflow-guard.cjs (per-step tool permission enforcement and checkpoint gating)
  • PostToolUse → workflow-tracker.cjs (tracks workflow state transitions and the active step's tool allowlist)
