A creative workspace for bot makers
characters, submissions, worlds & the messy middle ↙Forge ideas.Ships bots.
Forgeworks is the workspace around making chatbots: the character, the submissions, the worldbuilding, the writing, and the people you make it with.
Lots of moving pieces.Keep them close enough to keep creating.
01 / The first problem
A submission comes in.
You decide what happens next.
Forgeworks started with Forms: a safer, more intentional way for bot creators to receive submissions and turn them into work they can actually manage.
Make a form
Ask what you need to know.
A character name, a scenario, an oddly specific idea. Pick your questions, make the form look like you, and share the link.
Set your boundaries
Have a say in what gets through.
Not every submission belongs in your inbox. Adjust the filters and sensitivity, review flagged responses, and block people who keep crossing the line.
Keep track
Come back when you’re ready.
Accept a submission, leave yourself a note, move it along. You can see what’s waiting and what you’ve already finished.
02 / What grew around it
One tool became a
creator workspace.
Forms solved the first problem. Then the same project kept needing a place for the character, the world around them, and the way creators share their work.
Receive the idea. Check what comes through. Keep track of what happens next.
Build the character
Personality, scenario, greetings, dialogue, tags and the rest.
Build the world
Entries, Worlds, Collections, Lorebooks and relations.
Build the public side
Creator Pages, profiles, discovery and the things you want people to see.
Bot Manager / Meet the character
Characters are made
from little pieces.
Keep the details that define a bot together while you figure out who they are. Change one thing, rewrite another, come back later. It is still yours while it takes shape.
Still becoming.
Name, voice, scenario, messages, examples, tags, image — all close enough to keep iterating.
A little stubborn. A very good listener.
The train only stops after midnight.
“You came back.”
Different ways to begin the same story.
Atlas / Worldbuilding
Your bot has a world.
Give it room to grow.
Start with a character, a place, a rumor, or one tiny bit of lore. Organize it later. Reuse what matters. Connect the pieces when a connection actually helps.
Start with one thing.
A character. A place. An event nobody agrees about. Write it down now; it doesn’t need a whole world around it yet.
“The station at the end of the line”A place worth coming back to.
Creator Pages / Make yourself at home
Give your work
a place that feels like you.
Build a public page from blocks for your bots, worlds, forms, galleries, text and more. Then shape the spacing, colors, type and motion until it feels less like a template and more like yours.
- 01Choose what you want to show.
- 02Arrange it your way.
- 03Polish the little details.
A few other things you’ll find here
It’s better
with company.
Collaboration
Make something together.
Invite someone into a bot workspace. Choose what they can edit, leave comments, review changes, and look back through its history.
Moderation
Your inbox, your boundaries.
Set the sensitivity, check flagged submissions, and block people from sending more submissions to a form.
Profiles & Markdown
Put a little of yourself in it.
Make a profile, choose what to feature, and write with formatting, colors, links, and lists.
Community & Resources
See what other people are making.
Find other creators, look around the community, and keep useful references close by.
A note from me
I wasn’t planning
to make
all of this.
but here we are.A friend was getting bot requests through Google Forms. One of them was seriously abusive. I wanted to make something that gave creators more control over what reached them.
That became Forms. Then I wanted a way to organize the submissions. Then somewhere to work on bots. I kept finding something else I wanted to make.
That’s how this turned into Forgeworks.
It’s still a personal project. I like working on it, I use parts of it myself, and I hope you’ll find something here that helps with your own work.
One workspace, lots of small jobs
Less tab-hopping.
More making.
Forgeworks is not one giant feature. It is a collection of small tools that stay close to the work they belong to.
Forms
submissions have somewhere to land.
Bot Manager
Characters keep all their pieces.
Atlas
Worlds can grow without becoming a mess.
Creator Pages
Finished work gets a public side.
Collaboration
Shared bots stay understandable.
Markdown
Writing stays expressive and consistent.
Free to use. Still growing.
Bring your
unfinished ideas.
Make an account, poke around, and see if it’s useful to you. If something feels off, I’d like to hear about it.
