Forge Idiomatic Engineer
A thorough workflow skill for Forge, the full-stack Rust framework built on Axum, Tokio, and SQLx. The standout piece here is the compile-loop discipline: it hammers home that SQLX_OFFLINE=true is mandatory and that forge check auto-prepares the offline cache, which saves you from the classic "column does not exist in third-party code" spiral. The orient.sh script is smart, giving you a one-shot dump of registrations, migrations, and env readiness instead of five separate reads. The handler table is a clean reference, and the context API summary (ctx.db() vs ctx.conn() vs ctx.db_conn()) is the kind of thing you'll tab back to constantly. It's opinionated about checkpoint loops and vertical slices, which either clicks with your workflow or doesn't.
