About ProdForge
ProdForge combines a catalog of production tools, merged MCP configuration, starter stacks, and release checks in one repository. It is for teams building products who need a structured path from setup through security and shipping; its CLI also serves agents through MCP tools.
Key features
- 01Catalog of tools by production phase
- 02Merged configuration for MCP servers
- 03Five pre-wired production stacks
- 04Project scaffolding with tests
- 05Doctor, checklist, and ship gates
Use cases
- 01Set up a project with connected MCP servers
- 02Start an MCP server or SaaS project from a stack
- 03Run security and production readiness checks
- 04Gate a release on installed tool results
MCP support
ProdForge runs as an MCP server as well as a CLI. It exposes tools for listing packages, connecting configuration, production checklists, doctor reports, catalog health, and ship gates.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

Details
From the project READMEProdForge
Take any product to production without wiring it all yourself.
You have the product idea. Then comes the hassle nobody warns you about: which MCP servers do I need, how do I connect them, what security checks matter, how do I know a release actually shipped, what breaks in production first?
ProdForge is one massive repo that already connected all of that together.
One catalog. One merged MCP config. Five production stacks. One ship gate.

What is inside
- catalog/ - Every tool in the fleet in one registry: Greenlight, Shipcheck, Wallcheck, the Security Wave (hookcheck, actionpin, injectcheck, mcpvet, depguard, flowcheck, tracewatch), mcpaudit, cidiff, reprocheck, contextbudget, agentsfile, envdoc, npmpreflight, envdoctor, logdigest, and more. 26 tools, grouped by production phase: build, secure, test, release, operate.
- mcp/ - One merged MCP config that wires every shipped MCP server together at once, for Claude, Cursor, and VS Code. Stop copy-pasting server blocks one by one.
- stacks/ - Five production stacks you start from instead of a blank repo:
mcp-server,saas-web,api-service,cli-tool,ai-agent. Each stack says exactly which tools are pre-wired, which env vars it needs, and what its release gate is.prodforge init <stack> <name>generates a real one: package.json, tsconfig, README, src, and a passing test suite. - playbooks/ - The production playbook, the release playbook, the security playbook, and the observability playbook. Short, checkable, no fluff.
- CLI + MCP in one bin - Same fleet factory pattern as Greenlight and Shipcheck:
prodforgeis a CLI for humans and an MCP server for agents. Agents getlist_packages,connect_config,production_checklist,doctor_report,catalog_health, andship_gate.
Why this exists
Every tool in the catalog already shipped on its own: npm, GHCR, and the MCP Registry, with tests and real production validation. The pain was never any single tool. The pain was figuring out how they fit together while you are trying to ship a product.
ProdForge is that fit, done once, in public, and kept updated.
Start here
- Run
prodforge doctorin your project. Fix what it names. - Run
prodforge connect --write mcp.json. Your agent now has the whole fleet. - Pick a stack in
stacks/closest to your product and follow its checklist. - Before you tag anything, run
prodforge ship. It executes each installed fleet tool and reports the rest honestly: any FAIL is a NO-GO, a missing tool is ABSENT (never a PASS), and an unwired gate is NOT-WIRED. Exit 0 only on GO.

Status
v0.5.0, built 2026-10-25 (Wave D: MCP catalog hardening, a vetting ledger covering all 27 registry tools, and a 107 server discovery list with every unvetted server kept out of the default profile). Overnight build log in docs/OVERNIGHT-2026-10-25.md. Roadmap in docs/ROADMAP.md - 5x the current scope, in waves.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
