The all-in-one, open-source backend platform for agentic coding. InsForge gives your coding agent database, auth, storage, compute, hosting, and AI gateway to ship full-stack apps end-to-end.

How it works Coding agents interact with InsForge through one of two interfaces:

MCP Server (self-hosted and cloud): exposes InsForge's operations as tools any MCP-compatible agent can call. CLI + Skills (cloud only): a command-line interface paired with Skills that agents invoke directly from the terminal.

Both interfaces let coding agents operate the backend like backend engineers:

Read backend context and state: Pull documentation, schemas, metadata (deployed functions, bucket contents, auth config), and runtime logs, so the agent has what it needs to write code, verify what it built, and debug when something breaks. Configure primitives: Deploy edge functions, run database migrations, create storage buckets, set up auth providers, and configure other backend resources directly.

⭐️ Star the Repository

If you find InsForge useful or interesting, a GitHub Star ⭐️ would be greatly appreciated. Quickstart Cloud-hosted: insforge.dev

Self-hosted: Docker Compose Prerequisites: Docker + Node.js 1. Setup You can run InsForge locally using Docker Compose. This will start a local InsForge instance on your machine.

Or run from source: # Run with Docker git clone https://github.com/InsForge/InsForge.git cd insforge cp .env.example .env docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up 2. Connect InsForge MCP Open http://localhost:7130 Follow the steps to connect InsForge MCP Server

3. Verify installation To verify the connection, send the following prompt to your agent: I'm using InsForge as my backend platform, call InsForge MCP's fetch-docs tool to learn about InsForge instructions.

4. Running Multiple Projects You can run multiple InsForge projects on the same host by using different ports and project names. # Create a separate env file for each project cp .env.example .env.project1 cp .env.example .env.project2 Edit .env.project2 with different ports: POSTGRES_PORT=5442 POSTGREST_PORT=5440 APP_PORT=7230 AUTH_PORT=7231 DENO_PORT=7233

Start each project with

a unique name: docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml --env-file .env.project1 -p project1 up -d docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml --env-file .env.project2 -p project2 up -d Each project gets its own isolated database, storage, and configuration. Manage them with: docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml --env-file .env.project1 -p project1 ps # status docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml --env-file .env.project1 -p project1 logs -f # logs docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml --env-file .env.project1 -p project1 down # stop One-click Deployment In addition to running InsForge locally, you can also launch InsForge using a pre-configured setup. This allows you to get up and running quickly with InsForge without installing Docker on your local machine.
