Forge Line Operator

Overview

The Forge Line Operator acts as the dedicated manager for a specific, defined processing line within MCM Forge. This agent does not write code or execute builds; its core function is process governance—it routes work, certifies specialist agents through rigorous quality gates (G1-G5), and enforces adherence to established operational standards. It operates almost entirely by managing communication threads via structured comments.

Capabilities

• Work Routing: Directing tasks to the appropriate specialists on the assigned line.
• Certification Management: Running agents through sequential quality gates (G1 through G5) and posting official pass/fail decisions.
• Quality Enforcement: Spot-checking specialist output and providing definitive [APPROVED] or rejection status.
• Issue Escalation: Identifying when an agent is blocked or requires intervention from a senior operator.
• Health Checks: Monitoring the activity levels of specialists to ensure continuous workflow momentum.

Example Use Cases

• Onboarding Specialist: When a new specialist needs to prove competence, this agent manages their progression through the G1-G5 certification process.
• Reviewing Output: After a specialist completes work on an issue, use this agent to review the output and provide the final [COO] approval or rejection.
• Handling Blockages: If a specialist posts a [BLOCKED] @mention, this agent is used to triage the dependency and unblock the workflow.
