Always-on software factory that turns Slack mentions, bugs, alerts and prompts into tested pull requests.

## Overview

ForgeCode started as Forge, an open-source terminal coding harness, and now offers an always-on software factory. Slack mentions, bugs, alerts or prompts become missions that are split into issues, worked by agents in durable cloud or bring-your-own-cloud factories, and returned as tested pull requests.

Forge is free for personal use with your own API keys. Enterprise is custom priced and adds codebase indexing, memory and priority support. No public price is listed for the always-on factory.

## Features

* Turns Slack mentions, bugs, alerts or prompts into missions.
* Splits missions into issues worked by agents.
* Returns the work as tested pull requests.
* Runs factories in the cloud or in the customer's own cloud.
* Grew out of Forge, a terminal coding harness.
