Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@forge-x-reforger-mcp Create a Reforger mod that adds a custom helmet and test it in Workbench."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
The universal AI modding toolkit for Arma Reforger — Forge-X Edition.
Describe what you want to build — your AI agent handles API research, code generation, project scaffolding, Workbench control, and in-editor testing. Works with any MCP-compatible agent: Cursor, Google Antigravity, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Kiro, Windsurf, VS Code Copilot, Continue.dev, and OpenCode.
Forked from steffenbk/enfusion-mcp-BK and wastelandgoats/reforger-forge-mcp with permission. Forge-X adds 49 new tools, Workbench lifecycle hardening (
EMCP_WB_Ping/GetStatebootstrap,wb_reload safe,finishCall),wb_diagnose_leak, export-VFS boost, script/index/world/logs/server/faction/scenario/weapon depth, and ongoing maintenance as an independent project.
101 MCP tools — API search, wiki, asset browsing, code generation, Workbench live control (53 → 101, +49: layout_validate, string_table, project_search/diff/references/stats/batch/export/template/migrate, prefab_diff, mod_compat, config_validate, project_scaffold_ui, resolve_guid, script_analyze/lint, wb_validate_scripts, wb_diagnose_leak, project_index_status, inheritance_chain, find_broken_refs, find_unused_resources, script_overrides, script_find_rpc, script_class_hierarchy, wb_search_resources, wb_current_project, wb_generate_guid, wb_is_workbench_running, logs_list, logs_tail, logs_filter, logs_summarize_errors, world_compose_summary, world_diff, world_validate_refs, terrain_navmesh_status, terrain_road_export_graph, faction_create, faction_list_units, scenario_inspect, scenario_diff, scenario_clone_area, scenario_apply_template, weapon_pose_lint, animation_find_unused_clips, server_mod_list)
8,693 indexed API classes — full Enfusion/Arma Reforger class hierarchy
250+ wiki guides — searchable tutorials and documentation
Agent-agnostic — one server, install script for every major AI IDE
Zero modding experience required — natural language → built addon
222k+ game files indexed — full pak archive browsing, search, and reading
Optional export boost — 100x faster reads with unpacked game data

git clone https://github.com/Dopemodz420/Forge-X-Reforger-MCP.git
cd Forge-X-Reforger-MCP
npm install
npm run buildOr on Windows:

.\scripts\install-agents.ps1 -All
# Or pick one
.\scripts\install-agents.ps1 -Agent antigravity
.\scripts\install-agents.ps1 -Agent cursorRestart your agent and verify forge-x-reforger-mcp (or forge-x) shows 101 tools.

Re-run .\scripts\install-agents.ps1 after changing paths so all agents get updated env vars.
ReforgerForge uses stdio MCP (local Node.js process). Every agent below runs the same server — only the config file location differs.

For faster file reads, you can use an unpacked game data export from ReforgerPakTool. This indexes 106k+ files as plain text on disk (1ms reads vs ~100ms from pak decompression).
