ForgeDeck is a desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Install it, point it at a local repo, and you're ready to orchestrate agents.

Install

Download the build for your platform from the download page, or run from source:

git clone https://github.com/alphajew420/forgedeck.git
cd forgedeck && pnpm install && pnpm dev

Running from source needs Node, pnpm 9, and a Rust toolchain (for the Tauri backend).

Open a project

Use Open folder and select any local repository. ForgeDeck reads the project, seeds default Kanban columns, and detects which agent CLIs you have installed.

Launch your first agent

  1. Create a task on the board.

  2. Pick an agent profile (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, …).

  3. ForgeDeck writes a context bundle, opens a task-pinned terminal in an isolated Git worktree, and sends the editable command.

  4. Watch output live, review the diff, and merge when you're happy.

That's the loop. Everything stays on your machine.
