# NXTG-Forge Domain Knowledge ## What NXTG-Forge is A **self-deploying AI development infrastructure** for Claude Code. Not just a code generator — an intelligent scaffolding + orchestration system that reads a project's specification, plans tasks, dispatches specialized agents, and tracks state across the development lifecycle. **Mission:** "From specification to production in minutes, not days." It bridges idea → implementation by: (1) turning a natural-language spec into a task plan, (2) orchestrating specialized agents, (3) persisting state for recovery, (4) surfacing quality gaps, (5) integrating natively with Claude Code. **Problem it solves:** static templates don't adapt; ordinary scaffolds have no context memory, no orchestration, no state, and no quality signal. NXTG-Forge adds AI-native intelligence to all four. ## The 3-repo workspace (real, not a monorepo) ``` forge-ui/ React 19 + Vite dashboard (:5050) forge-orchestrator/ Rust CLI + MCP server — binary: `forge` forge-plugin/ Claude Code plugin (commands/agents/skills/hooks) — this repo ``` Integration is **MCP-only**; there are no cross-repo code imports. ## Core concepts (at a glance) 1. **Project Specification** — natural-language build description. `forge plan --generate` reads `SPEC.md` (or `PRD.md`/`REQUIREMENTS.md`/`README.md`). 2. **Agent Orchestration** — work split across specialized roles (Lead Architect, Backend Master, CLI Artisan, Platform Builder, Integration S
