By name: fogo-dev description: > End-to-end Fogo blockchain development playbook (Mar 2026). Covers Fogo Sessions, deployment, DeFi ecosystem, program analysis, and SVM-compatible development on the fastest L1. Companion to solana-dev-skill for base SVM knowledge. user-invocable: true
Fogo Development Skill
Fogo is a high-performance L1 blockchain built on the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) with Firedancer. ~40ms block times, ~1.3s finality, full Solana compatibility. Any Solana program deploys on Fogo without code changes.
Task Classification
- Deployment / Getting Started → getting-started.md
- Fogo Sessions (client) → fogo-sessions.md
- Fogo Sessions (on-chain) → fogo-sessions-onchain.md
- Architecture / Consensus → architecture.md
- Tokens / Staking → tokens-and-staking.md
- DeFi Protocols → defi-ecosystem.md
- Program Analysis / Reverse Engineering → program-analysis.md
- Troubleshooting → common-errors.md
- Links & Resources → resources.md
- On-chain programs (Anchor/Pinocchio) → use solana-dev-skill
- Testing (LiteSVM/Mollusk/Surfpool) → use solana-dev-skill
Default Stack
| Layer | Default | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Fogo testnet → mainnet | SVM-compatible, 40ms blocks |
| RPC | https://testnet.fogo.io / https://mainnet.fogo.io |
Official endpoints |
| CLI | Solana CLI pointed at Fogo RPC | Full compatibility |
| Programs | Anchor (Rust) | Same as Solana, deploy unchanged |
| Frontend | framework-kit + @fogo/sessions-sdk-react |
Gasless UX via Sessions |
| UX Pattern | Fogo Sessions (sign-once, gasless) | Main differentiator |
| Explorer | fogoscan.com | Fogo block explorer |
| Staking | Brasa (stFOGO) or Ignition | Liquid staking options |
Operating Procedure
- Classify the task using the table above
- Load the relevant child document(s)
- Check if base SVM knowledge is needed → reference solana-dev-skill
- Implement with Fogo-specific considerations:
- Use Fogo RPC endpoints (not Solana)
- Integrate Sessions for gasless UX where applicable
- Account for faster block times (~40ms vs ~400ms)
- Distinguish native FOGO (fees) from SPL FOGO (Sessions/DeFi)
- Test on Fogo testnet first (faucet at https://faucet.fogo.io/)
- Deliver with files changed, commands to run, and risk notes
