ForgeCraft
Install once so your coding agent follows production engineering guardrails during implementation and review, then remove the server when you no longer need enforced standards.
Overview
ForgeCraft is an MCP server for the Ship phase that exposes production engineering standards so AI coding assistants follow safer, production-minded conventions during implementation.
What is this MCP server?
- stdio MCP server runnable via npx (forgecraft-mcp npm package)
- One-time setup workflow: configure standards, use during sessions, tear down when finished
- Production engineering norms packaged for AI coding assistants rather than human-only lint docs
- Version 1.0.0 with GitHub source at jghiringhelli/forgecraft-mcp
- MCP server version 1.0.0
- Transport: stdio
- Package identifier: forgecraft-mcp (npm, runtimeHint npx)
Community signal: 2 GitHub stars.
What problem does it solve?
Agents happily generate code that works locally but ignores production engineering habits unless you repeat the same rules every session.
Who is it for?
Solo builders using Claude Code or Cursor who want a short-lived MCP standards pass while shipping a real product.
Skip if: Teams that already enforce the same rules via CI, internal style guides, and human review only—ForgeCraft overlaps rather than replaces that stack.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After you register ForgeCraft, your agent can draw on bundled production standards during coding tasks, and you can uninstall the server when you no longer want that enforcement.
- MCP tools that surface production engineering standards to the agent during sessions
- Repeatable one-time setup you can remove from config when standards are no longer needed
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
ForgeCraft targets the Ship phase because it encodes production-ready engineering norms you want active before merge and release, not during early ideation. Security is the canonical shelf: the server pushes standards that reduce unsafe patterns, sloppy ops defaults, and non-production habits in generated code.
How it compares
MCP standards server for agents, not a hosted CI policy engine or a single markdown skill file.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is ForgeCraft for?
Indie and solo developers who use AI coding assistants and want production engineering norms available through MCP without maintaining a long list of manual reminders.
When should I use ForgeCraft?
Use it during active build and ship work when the agent is writing or changing production-bound code and you want standards applied until you deliberately remove the server.
How do I add ForgeCraft to my agent?
Add the forgecraft-mcp stdio server to your MCP config with runtime npx, start your agent, and remove the entry when you are done with the standards pass.
