Common questions
Is Forgeprint safe?
It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed 5 days ago, and the latest version (0.4.5) reached the registry 41 days ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

Forgeprint
Others say "here are 200 skills, go find yours." Forgeprint says "tell me who you are and what you're building — here is your package."
Forgeprint is a community-grown blueprint catalog and MCP server that lets a coding agent bootstrap a new project with the right context in one shot: the AGENTS.md, the skills, the MCP and plugin configuration, and a deterministic setup recipe the agent can execute.
Status: pre-release. A catalog of blueprints, experts, crews and
integrations, working tooling, and an MCP server with all ten tools, published
and connectable today. With Claude Code:
`bash
claude mcp add forgeprint -- npx -y forgeprint-mcp
`
On Windows PowerShell, quote the separator:
claude mcp add forgeprint "--" npx -y forgeprint-mcp.
Any MCP client can connect; the site
has the command or configuration for each of the nine registered agents, and
the catalog with its current counts. Roadmap has the rest.
The problem
Every new project starts cold. You hunt down the requirements, write the rule file by hand, wire up the MCP servers, pick the plugins, and get the setup steps wrong twice before they work. Hours of it — repeated by everyone, on every project, forever.
That knowledge is not hard to write down. It is just never written down in a form another agent can use.
What makes it different
1. A resolver, not a catalog to browse
You do not search Forgeprint. You describe yourself and your goal, and it returns exactly one blueprint.
You: I know C#. I want to build a multi-tenant SaaS API.Agent: [resolve] → Forgeprint returns questions: which database, which auth, self-hosted or cloud? You: Postgres, JWT, cloud. Agent: [resolve] → one blueprint, why it was chosen, what is missing on this machine, and the setup plan.
When the profile is incomplete, the resolver does not guess: it returns the questions your agent should ask you. When two candidates are genuinely close, it returns both as a question and lets you pick — never as a list to sift through. When nothing fits, it says so, names the closest blueprint, explains why it does not fit, and offers to file a request. It never invents a match.
Scoring is weighted: a language you already know beats everything else.
2. A setup recipe, not a description
setup.md is a script, not prose. Every step is numbered, is a single command or a single file operation, and ends with a verification command. Versions are pinned. Option branches are explicit. The agent executes it; Forgeprint itself installs nothing and runs nothing on your machine.
3. A quality gate, not a junk drawer
Every pull request passes schema validation, a setup test that actually runs the recipe in a clean container, and a duplicate report against the closest existing blueprint. Two blueprints may not claim the same stack, project type and requirements — a better one replaces the old one instead of sitting next to it.
There is no inheritance and there are no variants. Variation is expressed as options, capped at three fields with three values each, so the whole matrix stays testable. See ADR 0001.
4. Standards-compatible, not another format
Forgeprint follows the existing specs — AGENTS.md, SKILL.md, marketplace.json — so its output drops into the tools you already use, and skills remain installable through the usual channels:
npx skills add forgeprint/forgeprint # skills.sh CLIgh skill install forgeprint/forgeprint blueprint-author
Both are verified against the real tools before each release, and forgeprint validate fails on a skill that would not install — see ADR 0006.
How it compares
Forgeprint is not trying to replace most of these. It sits in the gap between them.
| Project | What it does | How Forgeprint differs |
|---|---|---|
microsoft/skills | 170+ Azure/Foundry skills, an AGENTS.md template, ready MCP configs | A catalog you browse; no matching, and Azure-shaped |
github/awesome-copilot | Community instructions, prompts and skills for Copilot | A rule collection; no setup recipe, no resolver |
github/spec-kit | Spec-driven development: spec → plan → tasks | A process tool. Forgeprint delivers the context package and the recipe — complementary, not competing |
agent-rules-mcp | An MCP that fetches rule files from any GitHub repo | Fetches files; no selection, no schema, no setup, no quality gate |
codeops-mcp | Universal coding rules, generates project.md from an existing project | The opposite direction: it analyses projects that exist. Forgeprint bootstraps ones that do not |
awesome-cursorrules | A Cursor .mdc rule collection | One tool, one file type; no setup, no MCP |
skills.sh, gh skills install | Skill distribution standard and CLI | Distribution infrastructure that Forgeprint builds on top of, not a competitor |
How it works
You point your agent at the MCP server and talk normally. docs/mcp.md has the connection details and a worked exchange.
| Tool | What you get |
|---|---|
resolve | Either the questions to ask you, or one blueprint with its rationale, missing tools and setup plan |
search_blueprints | Matching blueprints with scores, when you want to look yourself |
get_blueprint | The manifest and every file, with option branches already resolved |
compare_blueprints | A pros-and-cons table for 2–4 candidates, built from their overview.md files |
validate_blueprint | Schema errors and a similarity report, for contributors |
request_blueprint | A GitHub issue payload when nothing matches |
recommend_experts | For a task, at most one crew or at most three experts, each with a reason — never a list to browse |
get_expert | One expert: its SKILL.md, checklists and sourced references |
get_crew | One crew: its members in full, and the install command for each integration it names |
get_integration | One pinned install recipe for third-party software, with the secrets it needs and what they reach |
Without an MCP client, nothing above is required:
npx -y forgeprint get ts-http-service --agent cursor --options framework=honoThat writes the files that agent reads, and the recipe with your options resolved — the same answer the tools give, because it is the same code (ADR 0013). It reads the published catalog, or a checkout when you are in one. The catalog is also published as JSON at forgeprint.github.io/forgeprint/index.json and as llms.txt.
Forgeprint replies in English. Your agent presents it in your language: the tools take a locale hint and hand it back, so nothing in the catalog has to be translated. See ADR 0004.
What works today
npx forgeprint validate # in a checkout of any Forgeprint catalognpx -y forgeprint-mcp # the MCP server, over stdio
To work on the catalog itself:
git clone https://github.com/forgeprint/forgeprint.gitcd forgeprint pnpm install pnpm run build pnpm forgeprint validate
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
pnpm forgeprint validate | Schema, taxonomy, required files, and the catalog-wide rules |
pnpm forgeprint build-index | Regenerate docs/index.json |
pnpm forgeprint build-schema | Regenerate schema/manifest.schema.json |
pnpm forgeprint build-codeowners | Regenerate .github/CODEOWNERS from the manifests |
pnpm forgeprint lint-setup | Check a setup recipe: numbering, verification, pinning, safety |
pnpm forgeprint similarity | Duplicate report against every other blueprint |
Every pipeline step is a command you can run locally. Hosted CI is a convenience, never a dependency: the workflows call these same commands, the generated index is committed to the repository, and GitHub Pages serves it straight from the branch. When Actions is unavailable, nothing stops. See ADR 0002.

Roadmap
- Phase 0 — Skeleton. Workspace, schema, taxonomy, validation and generators, licensing, contribution and governance rules.
- Phase 1 — First content. Three
officialblueprints, theblueprint-authorandblueprint-reviewskills, the similarity report and the setup lint. - Phase 2 — MCP. The six tools, the option resolver, and the server over stdio, published as
forgeprint-mcp. - Phase 3 — Publishing. The site is generated from the catalog and served at https://forgeprint.github.io/forgeprint, and the workflows run:
validateon every push and pull request,setup-teston the recipes.forgeprint validatechecks the skill format the distribution tools read, sonpx skills addandgh skills installagree with it (ADR 0006). - Phase 4 — Community. Contributor visibility has shipped: every blueprint page names and links its maintainer, and the open blueprint requests are listed live. What is left waits on people rather than on work — the orphan, staleness and co-maintainer rules are written in GOVERNANCE.md and will be automated when there is a second maintainer to automate them for, and community translations open when somebody wants to write one.
