Updates on Forge, and what we're learning as we build it.

A real tester thought Forge was the whole tool. That's on us, not them.

Forge 1.24.0: why a tester's honest confusion about what Forge actually does led to a role-clarity fix, a new console that shows exactly what Claude Code and Forge are telling each other, and a batch of real reliability fixes found the same way.

The bug that stayed silent even after we made it 200 times faster

A real debugging story: a performance fix that was genuinely correct still wasn't enough, because something else was quietly killing the result before it could ever arrive.

A real bug from testing Forge on a second machine, why it happened, how we fixed it, and where Forge actually stands right now before it goes to real testers.

The install screen we could never actually test — until tonight

Since the day it was built, Forge's own first-run install screen had never once been clicked through by anything but a real human. Here's what one overnight session found once we could finally see it, and everything else we fixed along the way.

Our swarm processed over a thousand tasks this week. 87% of them silently vanished. Here's what happened, what we fixed, and what it taught us about building reliable AI systems.

We just opened the site — here's exactly where things stand

Axonris Forge is live at this address for the first time. Here's what's real today, what's still being tested, and how to follow along as we build.
