InsForge is a backend development platform built for AI coding agents and AI code editors. It exposes backend primitives like databases, auth, storage, and functions through a semantic layer that agents can understand, reason about, and operate end to end.

InsForge acts as a semantic layer between AI coding agents and backend primitives. It performs backend context engineering so agents can understand, operate, and inspect backend systems.

• Fetch backend context: Agents can fetch documentation and available operations for the backend primitives they use.
• Configure primitives: Agents can configure backend primitives directly.
• Inspect backend state: Backend state and logs are exposed through structured schemas.

• Authentication: User management, authentication, and sessions
• Database: Postgres relational database
• Storage: S3 compatible file storage
• Model Gateway: OpenAI compatible API across multiple LLM providers
• Edge Functions: Serverless code running on the edge
• Site Deployment: Site build and deployment

InsForge.dev

Prerequisites: Docker + Node.js

You can run InsForge locally using Docker Compose. This will start a local InsForge instance on your machine.

Deploy on Docker

Or run from source:

# Run with Docker
git clone https://github.com/insforge/insforge.git
cd insforge
cp .env.example .env
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up

Open http://localhost:7130

Follow the steps to connect InsForge MCP Server

To verify the connection, send the following prompt to your agent:

I'm using InsForge as my backend platform, call InsForge MCP's fetch-docs tool to learn about InsForge instructions.

In addition to running InsForge locally, you can also launch InsForge using a pre-configured setup. This allows you to get up and running quickly with InsForge without installing Docker on your local machine.
