# BotForge v1.8.0 for Cline

Cline can also discover the canonical `.claude/skills/botforge/SKILL.md`. This bridge exists for workspaces that prefer `.cline/skills/`.

Read `AGENTS.md` first for the universal operating rules. For full BotForge behavior, read `.claude/skills/botforge/SKILL.md`; load reference files from `.claude/skills/botforge/references/` only when the task requires that domain.

Use the six-stage workflow for new bots and the Bypass Protocol for small fixes. Enforce the safety bans without override.
