$ man forge

> features.

./01 .md

# general-purpose

forge is one agent for the whole job — research, code, drafts, planning. Not ten browser tabs that each almost do one thing.

./02 .md

# shell-native

lives in your terminal. Reads your `~/.zshrc`, respects your aliases, refuses to silently `rm -rf`. Pipe it into anything.

./03 .md

# bilingual

switch between English and 日本語 mid-session. forge keeps context, locale-aware error messages, writes in your language.

./04 .md

# local-first

runs against a local model by default. Cloud is opt-in per-prompt. Your data never leaves the box unless you say so.
