Open Apps
Specialist open tools that connect to the CinterForge creative system.
CinterForge is an integration environment, not a replacement monolith. These projects remain independent applications with their own communities, licenses, and maintainers. Cards are the CinterForge way to organize creative material and its context; a supported Open App may participate in a specific Card workflow when its format and handoff are verified. The app itself is not a Card, and support does not imply that every file type transfers automatically.
