Forge Mechanism

Forge Platform connects methodology, contracts, workcells, evidence, and approval boundaries.

Trust Boundary

The hydration agent generates review drafts only; humans choose whether and where to promote them.

Suggested CTAs

• Open the workspace view before approving generated work.
• Attach evidence before moving from proposal to execution.

Promotion Notes

• Check whether the page belongs in public nav or maintainer-only docs.
