[n.02/12]> Key facts
// 001

Where it runs

On your Mac, in one folder you choose. Files stay files — you can open them without us.

// 002

What it costs

$0 while you hold $FORGE. $19 a month if you would rather not touch crypto. Either way, no credits and nothing counts down.

// 003

Whose model

Yours. Plug in the Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini account you already pay for. We do not resell tokens.

[n.03/12]> Jobs

Whose afternoon this is

Six piles. Twenty-four jobs. One of them is yours.

[01/24] > Inboxes and pipelines

Customer support

Sort last night's inbox, answer the six that are the same question, flag the one that is not.

Pinned 01
24 jobs

None of these is a job you would hand to a stranger. That is the whole point of it running on your Mac.

[n.04/12]> Output

What comes back

Not a chat transcript. A file, a link, or a working tool.

// 001

A file

A spreadsheet, a document, a deck — written into your folder, in a format you already use.

// 002

A tool with a URL

Ask for a small app and you get a working link you can send to somebody.

// 003

A trail you can read

Every run leaves a log: what it opened, what it changed, what it skipped and why.

[n.05/12]> Live log

Live log

09:02 opened vendor-quotes/ — 14 PDFs. 09:04 read invoice_0412.pdf — totals do not match line items. 09:04 flagged 1 anomaly, kept going. 09:11 wrote quotes-consolidated.xlsx — 14 rows, 3 columns. 09:11 waiting for you: send to accounting? [approve] [skip]

[n.06/12]> Skills

What it learns, you keep

A skill is a file in your folder. Not a setting in our database.

skill.md
01# vendor-quotes
02Open the vendor-quotes folder.
03Read every PDF.
04If a total does not match its line items, flag it and keep going.
05Write quotes-consolidated.xlsx, one row per quote.
06+Ask before sending anything to accounting.

Teach an agent how you do something and it writes that down as a plain text file. Open it, edit it, hand it to another agent, or delete it — it is yours in the ordinary sense of the word.

Every version is kept, so you can roll back to how it worked last week. Share one with your team, or publish it for anyone.

When an agent wants to change a skill, it does not. It writes the change to a queue and waits for you.

  • Readable — Plain text, not a binary blob
  • Versioned — Roll back to any earlier version
  • Portable — Copy it to another Mac, or to somebody else
  • Reviewed — Changes wait in a queue until you accept them
[n.07/12]> Teams

It is not a solo tool

// 001

More than one agent

One job, several agents. They split the work and share the same skills library, so what one of them learned, the rest already know.

You watch it happen as a set of cards — each agent, what it is on, whether it is running, stopped, or finished.

// 002

Rooms with people in them

A room is a conversation your team and your agents are both in. Ask a colleague a question and ask an agent to pull the file, in the same thread.

Everything made in a room is versioned, so two people and three agents editing the same thing does not end badly.

[n.08/12]> Autonomy

While you are away

It keeps working. It also tells you when it could not.

  1. // 001

    Scheduled work

    A job that runs at nine whether or not you are looking. Set it once; it reports back into the same thread.

  2. // 002

    A second Mac is your cloud

    Link an old Mac and the work carries on there while your laptop is shut. No server of ours in the middle.

  3. // 003

    When it gets stuck

    It stops and says why, in one line, then tries again on its own after a delay. If it is still stuck, it waits for you — and you restart it with a new instruction instead of watching it loop.

[n.09/12]> Requirements

What it needs, and what it will not do

Better to know now than after the download.

Needs
macOS
13 or newer, Apple Silicon or Intel
A browser
Chrome, Brave, Edge or Arc installed. Safari is not supported
A model account
Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini — yours, not ours
Permissions
Screen recording, accessibility and disk access, granted per item on first run
Approval mode
Out of the box it works without asking. You can set it to confirm every step, or to stay inside its own workspace — in Settings, any time.
Will not

It will not upload your files. Publishing and sharing are the exceptions, and you do those on purpose.

It will not rewrite a skill it did not write — it proposes the change and waits for you.

It will not solve a CAPTCHA or get past a login you do not have.

It will not run on Windows or Linux today.

Cloud agents are faster to start and work on any machine. This one asks more of you up front and gives you the keys.

[n.11/12]> Token

$FORGE

Hold $FORGE and the app is free for you — not a discount, not a trial. The token is how access is granted.

Nothing about it changes how the app works on your Mac. The files, the folder and the skills are yours whether you hold the token or pay the monthly price.

Contract address — published at launch
[n.12/12]> FAQ

Questions people actually ask

In a folder on your Mac that you picked. They are ordinary files — open them in Excel, Finder, anything. Nothing is uploaded unless you share it on purpose.

You need one, and you probably already have it. Connect the Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini account you pay for today. We do not sell you tokens or credits.

If your balance drops below the threshold, nothing changes for seven days. After that you move to a paid plan, in dollars or in $FORGE. Everything the app already made stays in your folder, including the skills.

Yes, and that is the default — it runs tools without stopping to confirm each one. You can change that in Settings: confirm every step, or let it work freely but only inside its own workspace. The one thing it always brings back to you is a change to a skill it did not write — that waits for you to accept it.

It launches its own copy of Chrome with a profile copied from yours, so it arrives at sites already signed in. That is a separate browser from the one you use — usually with no window at all — and your own Chrome is left alone. Safari cannot be driven this way.

Every run leaves a log of what it opened and changed, and skills roll back to any earlier version.
