How does the dual-model advisory system work?

Forge uses Claude 3.5 Sonnet for the bulk of the coding execution while calling Claude 3 Opus specifically for architectural decisions and scoping to ensure high-quality design.

What is the primary benefit of using Forge?

Forge provides a structured, predictable pipeline for complex tasks, ensuring that research and planning happen before any code is written, reducing errors and token waste.

What does the --budget high flag do?

It increases the number of allowed Opus advisor calls and uses the Opus model for more complex implementation steps, prioritizing quality over token economy.

Can Forge update my project documentation automatically?

Yes, by using the --doc flag, Forge generates markdown summaries, Mermaid diagrams, and updates your README to reflect the changes made during the task.

How are tests handled in the Forge workflow?

Forge includes a dedicated Test phase that runs project-specific tests defined in your forge.json configuration, ensuring implementation integrity before finishing.

生产力与工作流

Orchestrates a structured 5-phase development cycle from research to documentation using optimized multi-model task execution.

Forge is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to bring rigorous structure to AI-driven software development. It breaks complex tasks into a repeatable 5-phase pipeline: Research, Planning, Execution, Testing, and Documentation. By leveraging a dual-model approach—using Opus as an architectural advisor and Sonnet as a high-speed executor—Forge balances high-level oversight with token-efficient coding. Each phase includes mandatory validation checkpoints, ensuring that the developer maintains full control over the implementation path while automating the heavy lifting of codebase exploration and technical documentation.
