README
Forgelite
**A lean, token-efficient build workflow for Claude Code.** Shape an idea into a spec, plan it, build it test-first, debug by evidence, and prove it works before saying "done", while spending expensive model time only where it pays off.
Forgelite is built on the ideas of [**Superpowers**](https://github.com/obra/superpowers) by Jesse Vincent, which showed that a disciplined, skill-driven workflow makes Claude Code far more reliable. Forgelite was made with one goal: **keep that discipline, and improve speed, performance and token usage.** If you like what Superpowers does but want it to cost less and run faster, this is for you.
Forgelite is not affiliated with Superpowers or its author. See [Credits](#credits).
