What is the primary purpose of the forge-docs skill?

It helps users navigate the Forge framework by surfacing relevant documentation for commands, concepts like efforts and slices, and general engineering workflows.

Which documentation files does this skill access?

It reads from getting-started.md, workflow-overview.md, and command-reference.md located within the Forge plugin directory.

What happens if my project documentation isn't set up yet?

If the documentation directory is missing, the skill will identify the issue and offer to run /forge:init to initialize the project and its documentation.

How does it help with onboarding?

When you ask how to start or install Forge, it provides the first steps from the getting-started guide and offers to run initialization commands automatically.

Can it help me understand specific Forge terminology?

Yes, it explains domain-specific concepts such as 'efforts,' 'slices,' and 'retro notes' by referencing the workflow overview documentation.

Learning & Documentation

Provides instant access to Forge framework documentation, command references, and workflow guidance within Claude Code.

Forge Documentation is a specialized skill designed to help developers navigate the Forge framework (Framework for Organized Requirements and Guided Engineering). It enables Claude to intelligently surface relevant information from local documentation files, covering everything from initial setup and onboarding to advanced workflow concepts like 'efforts' and 'slices'. By pinpointing specific sections of the command reference or workflow overview, the skill ensures you get exactly the help you need without manually searching through markdown files, even suggesting the next logical command to run.
