Forge Workshop Bench
ConsultForge working model
A forge workshop takes a vague initiative and works it into a stronger operating shape. ConsultForge helps teams sharpen tradeoffs, test resource fit, and produce a draft that can be assigned.
The method is useful when a promising idea needs pressure before it becomes a plan. Each forge note records what was strengthened, what was removed, and what is ready for action.
