THE FORGE WALKTHROUGH
Every journey starts somewhere. Where does yours begin?
New here? The three steps below take you from install to live production. Four entry paths come next — pick whichever matches how you're starting.
BilboENTRY PATHS
Four ways to reach Step 1 above, depending on how you're starting.
THE WIZARD
I have nothing but an idea
Gandalf walks you through everything. The wizard generates your PRD, builds the project, and deploys it. Zero blank-page problem.
THE BLUEPRINT
I have a complete spec already
You bring a finished PRD. Picard validates it, discovers supporting docs, provisions infrastructure, and hands off to /campaign for autonomous build.
THE METHODOLOGY
I know my stack and have a plan
You write the PRD (or use /prd to generate one). /campaign runs the war. No wizards, no hand-holding — just methodology and execution.
THE IMPORT
I have an existing project
Point VoidForge at your existing codebase. /assess maps what you have. /prd generates a PRD from reality. /campaign builds what's missing.
The wizard is for first contact — when you need guidance through every decision. The blueprint is for captains who arrive with orders already written. The methodology is for officers who know their mission and want the forge to execute. The import is for joining a crew already in flight.
PicardBuilding is only half the story. These tools help your creation find its audience, manage its money, and watch itself work. They are powerful — but still being forged. Bring your engineering tools.
