TrueForge is an open-source agent harness that provides the runtime layer turning an LLM into a working agent, with MCP tools, skills, sandboxing, human approvals, and subagents built in. It ships as a core server running the agent loop, a TypeScript SDK over an HTTP API, and a React chat UI SDK, deployable locally via npx or hosted with Postgres and Redis.
Use cases
- run a self-hosted agent runtime with MCP tool support
- build a custom chat agent with streaming and tool calls
- add human-in-the-loop approvals to sensitive agent actions
- run long-lived agent sessions that survive reconnects and restarts
- execute agent code and shell commands in an isolated sandbox
- embed an agent chat UI into a React app
- manage context on long agent tasks with compaction and subagents
When to choose
- you need a production-grade agent runtime with sandboxing, approvals, and session persistence
- you want MCP tool integration and context engineering out of the box
- you want both a hosted team deployment and a local personal mode
- you prefer TypeScript/Node.js and bring-your-own model providers
When to avoid
- you only need a simple LLM API wrapper or prompt library
- you want the entire agent loop to run inside a VM rather than a server-side sandbox
- you need a Python-first agent framework
- local mode is unsuitable for internet-facing use since it has no login by default
