Forge MCP Server

🚀 Forge MCP Server

Swarm agents that turn slow PyTorch into fast CUDA/Triton kernels, from any AI coding agent.

🚀 Quick Start

Forge transforms PyTorch models into production - grade CUDA/Triton kernels through automated multi - agent optimization. Using 32 parallel AI agents with inference - time scaling, it achieves up to 14x faster inference than torch.compile(mode='max - autotune - no - cudagraphs') while maintaining 100% numerical correctness.

This MCP server connects any MCP - compatible AI coding agent to Forge. Your agent submits PyTorch code, Forge optimizes it with swarm agents on real datacenter GPUs, and returns the fastest kernel as a drop - in replacement.

✨ Features

What it does

• Optimize existing kernels - Submit PyTorch code, get back an optimized Triton/CUDA kernel benchmarked against torch.compile(max - autotune).
• Generate new kernels - Describe an operation (e.g. "fused LayerNorm + GELU + Dropout"), get a production - ready optimized kernel.
• 32 parallel swarm agents - Coder+Judge agent pairs compete to discover optimal kernels, exploring tensor core utilization, memory coalescing, shared memory tiling, and kernel fusion simultaneously.
• Real datacenter GPU benchmarking - Every kernel is compiled, tested for correctness, and profiled on actual datacenter hardware.
• 250k tokens/sec inference - Results in minutes, not hours.
• Smart detection - The agent automatically recognizes when your code would benefit from GPU optimization.
• One - click auth - Browser - based OAuth sign - in. No API keys to manage.

Supported GPUs

All optimization and benchmarking runs on datacenter - grade hardware:

💻 Tools

forge_auth

Authenticate with the Forge service. Opens your browser to sign in via the RightNow dashboard. Required before using any other tool.

• Inputs:
  • force (boolean, optional): Force re - authentication even if valid tokens exist.
• Returns: Authentication status, email, plan type, and credit balance.

forge_optimize

Submit PyTorch code for GPU kernel optimization. 32 swarm agents generate optimized Triton or CUDA kernels, evaluate them on real datacenter GPUs, and return the best result with speedup metrics.

The agent will automatically use this tool when it detects:

• PyTorch custom operations (torch.autograd.Function, custom forward/backward).

• Manual CUDA kernels that could be faster.

• Performance - critical tensor operations (attention, convolution, normalization, softmax).

• Code with comments like "slow", "bottleneck", "optimize".

• torch.compile() targets or triton.jit kernels.

• Any nn.Module with significant compute in forward().

• Matrix multiplication, reduction, or scan operations.

• Custom loss functions with reduction operations.

• Fused operation opportunities (e.g., LayerNorm + activation).

• Inputs:

  • pytorch_code (string, required): Complete PyTorch code to optimize. Max 500 KB.
  • kernel_name (string, required): Short name for the kernel (e.g., "flash_attention").

1. Authenticate: The agent calls forge_auth, which opens your browser. Sign in once, tokens are stored locally at ~/.forge/tokens.json and auto - refresh.
2. Optimize: The agent sends your PyTorch code via forge_optimize. The MCP server POSTs to the Forge API and streams SSE events in real time.
3. Benchmark: 32 parallel Coder+Judge agents generate kernels, compile them, test correctness against the PyTorch reference, and profile performance on real datacenter GPUs.
4. Return: The MCP server collects all results and returns the optimized code, speedup metrics, and iteration history. The output is a drop - in replacement for your original code.

Each optimization costs 1 credit. Credits are only charged for successful runs (speedup >= 1.1x). Failed runs and cancelled jobs are not charged.

📚 Configuration

Authentication

No API keys needed. The server uses OAuth 2.0 with PKCE for secure browser - based authentication:

1. Agent calls forge_auth.
2. Your default browser opens to dashboard.rightnowai.co.
3. Sign in or create an account.
4. Authorization completes automatically.
5. Tokens are stored locally at ~/.forge/tokens.json (mode 0600).
6. Access tokens auto - refresh, you only sign in once.

Credits

Forge uses a pay - as - you - go credit system. Each optimization or generation run costs 1 credit.

Free trial: optimize 1 kernel, no credit card required.

100% refund guarantee: if Forge doesn't beat torch.compile, you get your credit back.

Purchase credits at dashboard.rightnowai.co.

🔒 Security

Token Protection

• No tokens in errors: All error messages are sanitized through regex filters that strip JWTs, Bearer tokens, hex tokens, and credential parameters before reaching the agent.
• Local storage only: Tokens are stored at ~/.forge/tokens.json with file mode 0600 (owner read/write only).
• Auto - refresh: Access tokens expire in 1 hour and auto - refresh using the stored refresh token.
• PKCE flow: OAuth uses Proof Key for Code Exchange (SHA - 256), preventing authorization code interception.
• No secrets in config: The MCP server requires zero environment variables or API keys.

Input Validation

• PyTorch code input is capped at 500 KB to prevent memory exhaustion.
• User prompts are capped at 10 KB.
• All string inputs have maximum length validation via Zod schemas.
• Numeric inputs have min/max bounds (e.g., max_iterations: 1 - 100).

Network Security

• All API communication uses HTTPS.
• Non - SSE requests have a 30 - second timeout to prevent hanging.
• SSE streams have a 10 - minute timeout with automatic cleanup.
• Token refresh uses a mutex to prevent race conditions from concurrent requests.

What the server can access

• Network: Only dashboard.rightnowai.co and forge - api.rightnowai.co.
• Filesystem: Only reads/writes ~/.forge/tokens.json.
• No codebase access: The MCP server never reads your files. The agent passes code to it explicitly through tool parameters.
