What it is
The Blueprints Wizard is a guided flow inside Forge Studio that walks a team through mission, context, clarification, targets, scope, run plan, review, recheck, and optional Cursor Launch Pack export. It aligns with Blueprints concepts; it does not automatically modify your blueprints/ git submodule.
Terms (quick read)
| Term | Plain language |
|---|---|
| Wizard | Guided planning / assessment workflow — structured steps and artifacts, not auto-edits to your repo. |
| Forge Studio | Local workspace UI where the Wizard runs (/studio/). |
| Artifact bundle / pack | Emphasis the session gives to planning vs engineering vs execution outputs (labels vary by build). |
Good for / not for
| Good for | Not the best tool when… |
|---|---|
| Facilitated workshops with a shared narrative | You only need a one-line edit in existing Markdown |
| Aligning before branching or a new initiative | You want unattended automation to bump git submodules |
| Producing exports and packs for the next engineering step | Your team will not read or update session notes |
Inputs and outputs (conceptual)
| Phase | You bring | You leave with |
|---|---|---|
| Mission through scope | Context, constraints, disagreements | Shared targets and an explicit increment |
| Run plan through review | Owners, risks, dependencies | Ordered steps and generated artifacts |
| Recheck / experimental | Policy for exports | Packaged handoff (for example Cursor Launch Pack) when enabled |
When to use it
When you want a facilitated workshop, a shared narrative before branching, or a bootstrap for a new initiative — not when you only need a one-line edit in existing Blueprints files.
Prerequisites
- Studio overview — server and
/studio/work. - Wizard routes visible in the sidebar (see Enable below).
Steps
Enable (if the Wizard is hidden)
Visibility depends on how your Lenses build and server are configured. If the Wizard does not appear in the Studio sidebar, confirm you are on a build that includes it, or ask whoever maintains your Lenses installation. Operator-level configuration is documented in the forge-lenses repository on GitHub.
Open the Wizard
- Go to
/studio/. - Open Blueprints Wizard (experimental) in the sidebar.
- You land on the Hub at
/studio/blueprints/wizard— create or resume a session.
How to verify success
- Hub loads and lets you create a session.
- A session URL matches
/studio/blueprints/wizard/session/<id>.
