forge-evolve

Status (2026-10-15): generated design study, not evidence. This repository was produced as a design study by a code-generation agent on 2026-10-13. Its benchmark tables, figures and numeric claims (precision, latency, clearance, timing, exception counts) are synthetic design targets emitted by the code itself, not measurements, and must not be cited as results. The maintained, measured implementation is being built in 577Industries/open-source under programs/evolve and programs/kinetic; measured results will be published there with run receipts. This repository is retained for provenance only.

Deterministic legacy software and engineering artifact modernization engine: dependency discovery, Cross-Language Abstract Representation (CLAR), risk-scored decomposition, differential behavioral comparison, and tamper-evident provenance.

Architecture & Domain Extensions

forge-evolve is the core modernization engine maintained by 577 Industries Inc. It separates source discovery and intermediate representation from target code/artifact generation and differential verification:

Ingest -> Discovery (AST/SCCs) -> CLAR IR (4-Layer) -> Migration Planner
       -> Transformation -> Differential Equivalence Oracle -> Hashchain Provenance

Official Domain Extensions

Extension Repository	Domain / Program Scope	Target Artifacts
577Industries/forge-evolve-tmpc	U.S. Navy DON26BZ01-NV013 (Theater Mission Planning Center)	Legacy C#/.NET/JS/SQL mission-planning software -> modern .NET 8 microservices + cATO artifacts
577Industries/forge-evolve-tdp	U.S. Air Force / Space Force DAF27BZ01-DV008 (Technical Data Packages)	Legacy 2D MIL-DTL-31000 PDF/raster drawings + STEP AP242 CAD -> Zero-Trust Canonical TDP Graph (cTDPg) + ML-KEM-768 Merkle-DAG
