The forgejo-sandbox / reforge harness, lifted out of the machine config into a host-agnostic, generic engine anyone can consume with Nix. Two layers: - engine (this repo) — nixosModules.reforge stands up the sandbox forge, provisions role accounts + tokens, enforces branch protection, and puts the reforge-* CLI + forgejo-mcp on PATH. Carries no project specifics. - run config — per-project manifest/charter/agenda/issues an adopter fills in; scaffold one with the `reforge` flake template. Portability fixes vs the in-config version: - forgejo-mcp resolved from $REFORGE_MCP_BIN or PATH, never a named host (kills the nixosConfigurations.omni hardcode). - all instance data + paths parameterized via REFORGE_* env, baked into the reforge-scripts wrappers from module options (configDir, agentsDir, refsDir, org, port, tokenOwner, ...). - option namespace neutral (reforge.* not omni.packs.*); settings policies carry no absolute /etc/nixos paths. - role briefs + orchestrator playbook genericized: all project specifics point at the charter; refs corpus optional. Validated: nix flake check (eval) + builds of forgejo-mcp, reforge-scripts, and a module-eval check. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Charter —
This is the standard every change in the run is judged against. It is seeded
into the forge as @ORG@/charter (README.md) and every review should cite
it. Fill in the sections below; delete the guidance italics.
Mission
What is this stack, and what is the run trying to achieve? One paragraph.
Principles (what "aligned" means)
The rules a change must respect — architecture, dependencies, boundaries,
security posture, self-hostability, protocol choices, licensing. The
reviewer role enforces these as the "charter gate", so be concrete: a
principle a reviewer can't check is decoration.
- e.g. No closed/hosted control-plane dependencies — everything must be self-hostable.
- e.g. Prefer a standard wire protocol over private in-process coupling between components that might not always be colocated.
- e.g. Secrets never land in code or config; demo/test gates must never be reachable in a production posture.
Intent docs (Phase A sources)
In Phase A the target repos are off-limits — roles work from recorded
intent. List the docs that intent lives in (roadmaps, ADRs, vision notes)
and where to find them. If a reference corpus is available, say so and note
that its path is in $REFORGE_REFS_DIR.
Test harness
How does a role run tests inside the sandbox? Name the commands, any local services, and what needs the human to arrange (real infra a role can't reach).
Review lenses
- security-lead — the merge gate. List the stack-specific hotspots to threat-model and the demo/env gates that must never reach production.
- reviewer — quality + charter alignment (this document).
- Add project-specific reviewer roles here (e.g. a protocol-conformance
lens). For each: add its brief as
<role>.mdin your agents dir, add its username toreforge.roles, and describe its lens here.
