Licensing

How it works

Licences are signed offline files verified locally by Forge Core with an embedded Ed25519 public key.

No stored licence means the Community context; a stored licence is verified by Core itself before any target tool runs.

Community tier targets build under Community; professional and enterprise targets require the matching entitlement.

Activating a licence

Buyers receive the signed licence file from the Forge account service after purchase (plus a one-time activation key shown on the account page).

Place the signed licence file and run: forge license activate <licence-file>.
