TaskForge distribution tap
Public distribution repo for the taskforge CLI + MCP server.
It serves two roles:
- Homebrew tap —
Formula/taskforge.rb. Install:brew install azhard/tap/taskforge - Release host — GitHub Releases here hold the cross-compiled binaries,
the per-platform
.mcpbbundles, andSHA256SUMS.
Both are published from the source repo's local release script
(scripts/release/publish-cli.sh) — there is no CI in this repo. The formula
and release assets are generated on the maintainer's machine and pushed here
directly.
