What it does
Forkmind is an agent skill from ccplugins/awesome-claude-code-plugins. Use when debugging, comparing, or regression-testing LLM / agent calls — when the user wants to capture LLM traffic, see a conversation as a branchable DAG, fork an alternative prompt or model from a past turn, or pin good outputs as baselines to catch drift. ForkMind is local-first (no cloud, no account) and proxies any OpenAI-compatible API, defaulting to free Ollama models. Trigger: "debug this prompt", "compare two models", "branch from that turn", "why did the LLM change its answer", "regression test my…
Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Testing & QA, covering LLM inference and serving, QA and bug reports and Debugging. It works with OpenAI, Ollama and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Awesome Claude Code plugins — a curated list of slash commands, subagents, MCP servers, and hooks for Claude Code. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Regression-testing LLM / agent calls — when the user wants to capture LLM traffic
- See a conversation as a branchable DAG
- Fork an alternative prompt
- Model from a past turn
Example prompts
- “debug this prompt”
- “compare two models”
- “branch from that turn”
- “/forkmind”
Requirements
- Node.js
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5bd4f16. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npxollama
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
ollama.comgithub.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Forkmind loads about 868 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 141 tokens; SKILL.md has 376 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- Use when debugging, comparing, or regression-testing LLM / agent calls — when the user wants to capture LLM traffic, see a conversation as a branchable DAG, fork an alternative prompt or model from a past turn, or pin good outputs as baselines to catch drift. ForkMind is local-first (no cloud, no account) and proxies any OpenAI-compatible API, defaulting to free Ollama models.

ForkMind
ForkMind treats AI context windows like a Git repo. It runs a local proxy that
records every LLM call into .forkmind/ as a node in a DAG, serves a dashboard,
and lets you branch alternative prompts/models from any historical turn.
When to reach for it
| Situation | Why ForkMind |
|---|---|
| "This prompt sometimes regresses — catch it" | Pin baselines, re-run, diff drift |
| "Compare llama3 vs gpt-4o on the same turn" | Fork the node, swap model, re-run |
| "Why did the agent change its answer?" | Inspect the DAG: request/response, tokens, lineage |
| "Capture all LLM traffic during this task" | Point client at the proxy; everything is logged |
| Agent needs to recall its own past attempts | ForkMind MCP server exposes the history |
Do NOT use for: production traffic logging at scale, hosted/cloud observability, or non-LLM HTTP debugging.
Run it
ForkMind runs straight from the git link — no npm registry needed:
# starts proxy + dashboard on :4500
npx github:medhovarsh/forkmind startThen point any OpenAI-compatible client at the proxy:
baseURL: http://localhost:4500/v1- dashboard:
http://localhost:4500
Free local default: install Ollama, ollama pull llama3.
Any provider works (OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, OpenRouter, Together, vLLM, LM Studio)
by passing that provider's base URL + key through the proxy.
Core moves
- Capture — route calls through
:4500/v1; each call becomes a DAG node. - Branch — in the dashboard, "Fork from here" on any node → edit prompt / swap model / change params → re-run only that subtree.
- Inspect — node inspector shows request, response, tokens, provenance, and whether the response was streamed.
- Regression test — pin a known-good output as a baseline; re-run after a prompt tweak; ForkMind flags drift (wire into CI).

MCP for agents
Installed as the Claude Code plugin, ForkMind's MCP server is wired up
automatically (forkmind server, launched via npx … forkmind mcp). An agent
can query its own history mid-task — recall previous attempts, trace lineage,
self-correct. No manual config needed.
Outside the plugin, add it to any MCP client by hand:
{
"mcpServers": {
"forkmind": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "github:medhovarsh/forkmind", "mcp"] }
}
}Delegating heavy compares
For "compare model X vs Y" or "why did the answer change" tasks that would dump
big transcripts into context, spawn the forkmind-debugger subagent. It runs
the comparison in isolation and returns a compact verdict (winner, diff, drift),
not raw logs.
Notes

Can I use Forkmind in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add ccplugins/awesome-claude-code-plugins --skill forkmind -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/forkmind, .gemini/skills/forkmind, .github/skills/forkmind and .opencode/skills/forkmind in your project.
What does Forkmind need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Forkmind needs the command-line tools its instructions call (npx and ollama). Our summary lists: Node.js.
Does Forkmind access the network?
SKILL.md names 2 domains. As links in the text: ollama.com and github.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
