Forge is the open-source runtime for Anthropic's Agent Skills standard — built for the agent that runs next to a service, in your environment, on infrastructure you already operate. Write a `SKILL.md`. Compile to a portable, hardened agent. Deploy it anywhere containers run: Kubernetes, on-prem, air-gapped, embedded in CI, or as an A2A endpoint.
