Before you install

A small runtime.
A serious boundary.

01

Python 3.12+

Create an isolated virtual environment for the CLI and its declared requirements.

02

AWS credentials

Use the configured profile for each environment or override it explicitly with --profile.

03

Project topology

Run Forge from a deployment project that owns deployment.yaml and its environment configs.

04

Operator review

Treat preview capabilities as review tools and inspect every Change Set before release.

Two repositories

The product surface
and the engine.

The client markets and documents Forge. The server contains the CloudFormation orchestration CLI.
