Cursor previewing a generated demo. Claude Desktop publishing a one-pager. One MCP call → public HTTPS URL in seconds. No repo, no CI, no build step. Custom domains, private sites, EU or US data residency. ![Deploy a page from Claude Code and get a live URL](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hostsmith/mcp-server/HEAD/demo.gif) ### Why Hostsmith - **Artifact-first.** No repo, no build config - drop a file (or have the agent generate one), get a URL. - **Built for agents.** MCP-native, OAuth-scoped, structured tool descriptions agents can chain. - **EU or US data residency.** Pick where the user's data lives, architecturally - not via a checkbox. ## Tools | Tool | Description | | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | `list_sites` | List all sites in your account for a given data partition | | `get_site` | Get details of a specific site | | `create_site` | Create a new site | | `delete_site` | Delete a site | | `list_domains` | List available domains (shared and custom) | | `get_account` | Get account info, subscription plan, and usage | | `deploy_files` | Deploy inline file contents to a site | | `deploy_create_upload` | Start a direct upload for binaries / large files | | `deploy_finalize` | Commit a deploy started with `deploy_create_upload` | ## Usage Authentication is via OAuth 2.0. Static access tokens are not supported. ### Claude Desktop Open **Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector** and enter: ``` https://mcp.hostsmith.net/mcp ``` Claude Desktop runs the OAuth flow in your browser to authorize the connector against your Hostsmith account. ### Stdio (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, Zed) Add this entry to your MCP client's config: ```json { "mcpServers": { "hostsmith": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@hostsmith/mcp-server"] } } } ``` The first tool call triggers an OAuth flow in your browser to authorize the server against your Hostsmith account. ### Remote URL (other clients) Any MCP client that supports remote Streamable HTTP transport can point directly at the hosted server: ```json { "mcpServers": { "hostsmith": { "url": "https://mcp.hostsmith.net/mcp" } } } ``` The client handles the OAuth flow automatically - you'll be redirected to Hostsmith to authorize access. ### Cursor (one-click install) [![Add to Cursor](https://cursor.com/deeplink/mcp-install-dark.svg)](https://cursor.com/en/install-mcp?name=Hostsmith&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC5ob3N0c21pdGgubmV0L21jcCJ9) Click the badge to add the remote Hostsmith server (`https://mcp.hostsmith.net/mcp`) to Cursor. The first tool call triggers OAuth in your browser. ### Local HTTP (self-hosted) Run the server in HTTP mode and have your MCP client perform OAuth against it: ```bash npx @hostsmith/mcp-server http ``` ```json { "mcpServers": { "hostsmith": { "url": "http://localhost:3100/mcp" } } } ``` ## Environment variables | Variable | Default | Description | | ---------------------- | ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `HOSTSMITH_URL` | `https://hostsmith.net` | Hostsmith app URL (OAuth endpoints). | | `HOSTSMITH_API_DOMAIN` | - | Override the upstream API domain across both partitions. The server prepends `us.api.` and `eu.api.` to the value you set. Example: `HOSTSMITH_API_DOMAIN=staging.example.com` routes calls to `https://us.api.staging.example.com` and `https://eu.api.staging.example.com`. Use this to point at a staging or proxied API host. | | `HOSTSMITH_BASE_URL` | - | Override the API base URL with a single fixed value, bypassing partition selection entirely. | | `PORT` | `3100` | HTTP server port. | | `MCP_BASE_URL` | `http://localhost:$PORT` | Public URL of the MCP server, used in OAuth metadata. | ## Network access The MCP transport and OAuth flow run in your client's app process and need no agent-sandbox configuration - if your MCP client connected, those paths are working. The one place sandboxed agents commonly fail is the **upload PUT** during `deploy_create_upload` + `deploy_finalize`: the bytes go from the agent's shell to the partition API host. From the agent terminal, allow outbound HTTPS (port 443) to: - `us.api.hostsmith.net` (for sites in the `us` partition) - `eu.api.hostsmith.net` (for sites in the `eu` partition) Sandbox-specific snippets (Cursor `sandbox.json`, Claude Code `settings.json`, Codex `config.toml`, generic firewall guidance) live in the [Network access](https://hostsmith.net/docs/mcp/network-access) docs. ## Troubleshooting - **Tool calls return 401**: the OAuth session expired. Reconnect from your MCP client to re-authorize. - **OAuth redirect loops**: confirm `MCP_BASE_URL` matches the URL your MCP client uses to reach the server. - **Wrong partition**: tool calls accept an explicit `partition` arg; if you omit it, the partition is inferred from your access token. - **Upload PUT fails (DNS, refused, proxy, timeout)**: the agent's shell can't reach the partition API host. See [Network access](https://hostsmith.net/docs/mcp/network-access). - **Inspect the install**: `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx -y @hostsmith/mcp-server http` to browse tools interactively. ## Documentation Deeper material lives at [hostsmith.net/docs/mcp](https://hostsmith.net/docs/mcp). ## Contributing See [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/hostsmith/mcp-server/blob/HEAD/CONTRIBUTING.md) (including the [Releases](https://github.com/hostsmith/mcp-server/blob/HEAD/CONTRIBUTING.md#releases) section for the version-stamping flow).
