Install EaglerForge
The EaglerForge guide says you open the client, open Mods, and add a mod from a URL or an upload, then enable it. The repository says the project does not contain Minecraft source or assets, and that compiling it yourself needs a licensed Java Edition plus Java 11 or newer.

The written community guide documents the Mods button and URL/upload actions. This page has not compiled or run EaglerForge. The linked older repository and its guide must not be presented as a current official Eaglercraft release.
Steps from their guide
- Use the 1.8 client, not 1.12.2 or 26.2.
- Open Mods, Add New, paste a URL or upload a file.
- Enable the mod and reload if the UI asks.
- Default relays mentioned in the readme are their test path, not a promise about ArchMC.
Compiling needs FFmpeg and a legal Minecraft Java Edition install according to their compile notes. A precompiled build does not waive license obligations or establish provenance. Review the maintainer, source and release instructions before executing a community client.

Questions
Will EaglerForge run on 26.2?
The project describes a 1.8 API. Do not expect 26.2 support.
Does it add the mace?
No. The mace is not a 1.8 item, and a mod loader does not automatically backport 1.21 content.
