Thanks for putting this on GitHub, this is really helping me understand capabilities better. Forges documents on this kinda suck.

Glad I was able to be of help. Forge documentation relies heavily on a "trial-and-error" and a "figure it out" mentality which, in my opinion, is a terrible way to go about things. I'm very much so more of a "learn by example" type of guy, and so I wanted to share this so that there'd be at least one public example of capabilities working for 1.14. They've changed a little in 1.17 but not by much, so hopefully this example is still helpful
