## Description
Your AI builds, deploys, and runs full-stack apps on a hosted workspace created at first sign-in.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Remote MCP endpoint (confidence: high). Install path detected from listing signals. Add as a URL/SSE server in your client:

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "obto": {
    "url": "https://imagedelivery.net/QjC6mNbtigBMadjlj3Sh_w/f2b5d615-b31e-4f3c-fbea-bc0ab8569400/mobilecard"
  }

## What is OBTO?

OBTO is a full-stack deployment platform built for the age of AI agents. Connect it to **Claude**, **GPT**, **Codex**, or any MCP-compatible model. Describe what you want in plain language. The AI writes the code, provisions the database, and deploys your application to a live URL — all in the same conversation.

No code editor. No terminal. No hosting setup. Full-stack. Not a wrapper over Vercel and Supabase — real backend, real infrastructure, one platform.

OBTO Inc. was founded in 2015. The platform has been running production workloads since 2019 — today it serves 300M+ monthly requests across 150+ institutions.

## Quick Start

### 1. Sign Up
Go to [obto.co](https://www.obto.co) and click **Sign in**. Authenticate with Google. Your OBTO instance is created automatically.

### 2. Copy Your MCP Endpoint
After signing in, you'll see your personal MCP server URL on the landing page. Copy it.

### 3. Teach Your AI Client — plugin or skill file

**Install the plugin (recommended where supported).** This repository is itself the plugin marketplace — one URL, nothing else to configure:

**Claude Code / Claude Cowork**
```
/plugin marketplace add obto-inc/platform
/plugin install obto@obto
```
Installs the OBTO MCP server connection plus six task skills (build loop, deploys & large files, media upload, memory, MCP extension, troubleshooting). Details: [`plugins/obto`](./plugins/obto/).

**OpenAI Codex** — clone this repository, then `codex plugin marketplace add "/path/to/platform"` and install **OBTO**. The Codex package is [`plugins/obto-codex`](./plugins/obto-codex/).

**Use the skill files directly (every other harness).** The skills are plain-markdown `SKILL.md` folders — portable to any agent harness that reads skills or instruction files:

| Client | What to use |
|--------|------------------------|
| **Claude Desktop** | Add [`SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md) to your project's knowledge or attach as a file |
| **Cursor** | Place [`SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md) in your workspace root or `.cursor/skills/` |
| **VS Code (Copilot)** | Place [`SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md) in your workspace root |
| **AntiGravity** | Place [`SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md) in your workspace's `.agent/skills/` directory |
| **OpenCode & other agent harnesses** | Copy the [`plugins/obto/skills/`](./plugins/obto/skills/) folders into your harness's skills directory, or use the single-file [`SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md) |

### 4. Connect to Your AI Client
Add your MCP server URL to your AI client's MCP configuration:

**Claude Desktop** — Go to Settings → MCP Servers → Add your OBTO endpoint URL. Claude will redirect you to authenticate via OAuth. Approve it.

**Claude Web** — In a project, add the MCP server URL. Authorize when prompted.

**Cursor / VS Code** — Add the MCP server configuration to your settings.

### 5. Build
Type what you want. The AI handles the rest.

```
"Build me a landing page for my coffee shop with a menu, gallery, and contact form."
```

Your app will be live at `yourapp.obto.co`.

## What Does the Skill File Do?

The [`SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md) file is a set of instructions that teaches AI models how to build and deploy applications on OBTO. It covers:

- **Platform architecture** — How OBTO stores code as database artifacts (no filesystem)
- **Deployment order** — Backend first, frontend last
- **Collection types** — Pages, JavaScript modules, stylesheets, routes, server scripts
- **The `xe.` pattern** — How backend services call each other
- **MCP tool routing** — Which tool to use for each operation
- **Full-stack examples** — Complete contact form deployment walkthrough

Without this skill file, the AI won't know OBTO's conventions and will produce code that doesn't deploy correctly. With it, the AI becomes an autonomous developer on your OBTO instance.

Where your client supports plugins (Claude Code, Claude Cowork, Codex), prefer the plugin — the same doctrine split into six auto-loading task skills, with the MCP connection preconfigured.
