  Forest Admin is an ops orchestration platform and internal tool builder that enables
  operations and compliance teams to manage data, workflows, and business processes through
  a customizable admin panel. It uses an agent-based architecture where developers deploy
  a REST API agent (Admin Backend) on their own infrastructure, keeping data entirely within
  client-controlled servers. The platform supports Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Python (Django/Flask),
  and PHP (Laravel/Symfony) agents that introspect data models and expose CRUD, filtering,
  pagination, and sorting capabilities through a generated Admin API. Forest Admin includes
  role-based access control (RBAC), JWT-based dual authentication, AI-assisted workflows,
  MCP server integration, SOC 2 compliance, and human-AI collaboration features for regulated
  industries such as fintech, KYC/AML, and payments operations.

    name: Forest Admin REST API (Admin Backend)
    description: >
      The Forest Admin Admin Backend is a REST API deployed on the customer's own
      infrastructure. It translates UI calls from the Forest Admin browser interface
      into database queries covering CRUD operations, search and filters, pagination,
      sorting, smart actions, and chart rendering. Authentication uses dual JWT tokens
      (FOREST_ENV_SECRET and FOREST_AUTH_SECRET). Agents are available for Node.js,
      Ruby on Rails, Django, Flask, Laravel, and Symfony.
