Forge Overview
Minecraft Forge is a modding API (Application Programming Interface), which makes it easier to create mods, and also make sure mods are compatible with each other.
The method that you are trying to use, by deleting META-INF and placing the files is not the way to install mods anymore. The new Minecraft launcher prevents modification of the actual game files, because it simply re-downloads them if they have changed.
Instead, you can create a new 'profile' in the Minecraft launcher containing the modified game file, preventing the launcher from refreshing the files. Forge actually comes with an automatic installer, which does this for you.
We find MC Forge to be the perfect environment for exploring AI generative techniques within a Minecraft world (without having to worry about hooking an agent up into the actual game itself). Using the our command included in MC Forge, you can easily write java scripts that can access and manipulate a Minecraft map file with little-to-no overhead.

MC Forge has its own API page which explains a lot of its inner methods and functionality. Check it out for detailed function and class explanations. http://mcforge.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
