Manage dotforge v3 behavior governance — view status, toggle behaviors, adjust strictness. Use when the user asks about active behaviors, wants to disable one for the current session, or adjust escalation thresholds.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# /forge behavior

Thin wrapper around `scripts/forge-behavior/cli.sh`. Dispatches behavior
governance actions. This skill is part of dotforge v3 (Phase 1 of behavior
governance) and should only be used inside dotforge itself or projects that
have adopted v3 — not on v2.9 projects.

## When to use

Invoke this skill when the user asks any of:

- "What behaviors are active?"
- "What's the counter on search-first?"
- "Disable search-first for this session"
- "Turn off the nudge on writes"
- "Make search-first stricter / more relaxed"

Do NOT invoke this skill for v2.9 configuration tasks (use `/forge audit`,
`/forge sync`, etc.) or for behaviors that have not yet been catalogued
(Phase 1 only ships search-first).

## Actions

```bash
scripts/forge-behavior/cli.sh status [--session SESSION_ID]
scripts/forge-behavior/cli.sh on  <behavior_id> [--project | --session SESSION_ID]
scripts/forge-behavior/cli.sh off <behavior_id> [--project | --session SESSION_ID]
scripts/forge-behavior/cli.sh strict  <behavior_id>
scripts/forge-behavior/cli.sh relaxed <behavior_id>
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add luiseiman/dotforge/forge-behavior@sha256:536f51e475626025

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260413.75952f8, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
