What Is a Hub?

A hub is a collaboration space between one human and one AI, governed by principles you both agree to.

It's not a template you fill in -- it's a conversation that produces a working constitution: how you'll make decisions together, what requires consent, what the AI can do autonomously, and how trust develops over time.

Forge runs that conversation and writes the files. The interview takes 10-20 minutes.

---

Who Is This For?

Two entry questions:

1. "I want to try structured human-AI collaboration but don't know where to start."

2. "I want a constitution for my AI collaboration but don't want to write one from scratch."

If either resonates, Forge is for you.

How It Works

graph LR
    Interview["`**Interview**<br/>10-20 minutes`"]
    Interview --> Constitution["`**CONSTITUTION.md**<br/>Your principles`"]
    Interview --> Claude["`**CLAUDE.md**<br/>AI's guide`"]
    Interview --> Kernel["`**COMPLIANCE_KERNEL.md**<br/>Hard constraints`"]

    Interview --> Settings["`**.claude/**<br/>Skills + hooks`"]
    Interview --> Primitives["`**Primitives**<br/>Seal, Gauge, Roundtable`"]

You answer questions. Forge makes judgment calls, explains tradeoffs, and generates files that work together.
