### 🔧 PowerShell Setup Button
Forge is an MCP Apps workbench that brings a complete app-building environment directly into the chat. Ask Claude to build something, and a live preview window appears with a running app, a real code editor, downloadable files, and a full document viewer—all without leaving the conversation. Every project runs entirely in memory and in the browser, so there's nothing to install, no build step, and no server-side storage. It's the fastest way to go from a prompt to a polished, working app.
## 🔧 Requirements
PowerShell 5.1+ (pre-installed on Windows 10 and 11)
Windows 10 / 11 (x64)
Internet connection — required to fetch the script
Administrator — not required
## Features
Live preview, right in the chat. Ask the AI to build something and a workbench window appears the moment it starts writing—no build step, no preview server, no separate tab. The generated app compiles and runs inside the window itself, so what you see is exactly what was just made.
An editor, not just a viewer. A real code editor with a folder tree and syntax highlighting, where the AI's code streams in live as it's generated. Make manual edits, save with a keystroke, and get a clear conflict banner if a hand edit and an AI edit ever collide.
Point at what you want changed. Select any element to share it with the model as context, edit text directly in place, or draw freehand marks on the preview and describe the change—the workbench traces each mark back to the file and line that produced it. Comments become numbered pins anchored exactly where you clicked.
Every file, one click away. Generated source files appear as downloadable cards grouped by folder, with type badges, sizes and one-tap copy. Grab a single file, a whole folder, or the entire project as a ready-to-run scaffold.
Documents that open and edit in place. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, Markdown, CSV, JSON, SVG and images all render inside the workbench. Select a paragraph, a spreadsheet cell, a slide shape, a chart bar or an image region and ask the AI to change just that piece—with version history and restore behind every save.
See the shape of your project. A structure view maps the project tree with file roles and component names, flags unused files, unresolved imports, circular dependencies and missing packages, and draws architecture, workflow, sequence and data-flow diagrams straight from the code—regenerated whenever it changes.
Search that keeps up. Fuzzy path search that finds src/App.tsx from srcapp, full-text search inside files with line numbers, and element-level search across layers. Hit / and start typing.
Built to feel native. The workbench follows the host's theme, expands to fullscreen where the host allows it, and slides out of the way with a dock button when you need the conversation back. Undo, redo, keyboard shortcuts and a floating toolbar keep everything within reach without covering the work.
Nothing leaves the process. Projects, documents and history live in memory and disappear when the session ends—no accounts, no database, no disk. The generated code runs in a sandboxed frame in your browser, never on a server.
