Products that do what Host Claude Artifacts on your own domain does
Hi HN, I've been using Claude to generate landing pages and it's a huge time-saver. But, it's hard to go from Artifact -> Published website. That's where Artifact Ninja comes in. How it works: 1. Click "Copy" above your artifact in Claude.ai and paste into Artifact.Ninja 2. We'll generate a static webpage without any Claude branding 3. Use your registrar's "masked forwarding" feature to connect a custom domain Artifact Ninja is a quick utility I needed for my own purposes. It's cheap to host (Cloudflare worker + D1), so it's free! Hope it helps.

Hey HN, I noticed there are 1,000+ MCP skills on GitHub with zero way for creators to charge for them. So I built Agent37. Selling Claude skills today means asking customers to download your skill, set up Claude Code on their laptops, configure MCP servers, and pray it works. No trial, no updates, often you're just handing over the source. Agent37 lets creators upload a skill, share a link, and anyone can try it instantly (no Claude account needed). Built-in Stripe, creators keep 80%. Looking for feedback on the approach. Would you use something like this?

I tend to use AI to brainstorm domain names, but I kept wasting time pasting each idea into Namecheap to see if they were available. So I built DotComBuddy - it generates ideas (using DeepSeek V3 - switched from GPT-4o after realizing quality was just as good) and checks availability in real time via Name.com’s API. Built with Next.js and Vercel’s AI SDK, the app gives you a table of available domains with their price. 10 free searches to try it out, then $9/year (what I’d pay to never do this manually again). Sharing this for anyone else tired of switching tabs to check domains. Happy…

This is a proof of concept utility which allows you to expose local services to the internet at large: https://github.com/skx/tunneller In short it is a simple ngrok alternative, which you can self-host. Because it is a proof of concept it hasn't been tested extensively, but it seems like it will solve my immediate-needs. Of course it needs test, and structure added. But feedback can't hurt :)

Hi! I am sharing this because it may be useful to others. I created a simple Docker image that lets you easily expose a web app running locally on your dev machine to the Internet, via a proxy server. It is a self hosted alternative to something like Ngrok, which is a paid service if you use custom domains. A small server is cheaper than Ngrok (I use Hetzner Cloud and the cheapest server costs me 3€ per month). I use this method in particular to test HTTP verification with Let's Encrypt for a SaaS app running on my Mac. Hope this is useful :) Code:…

Hey Hacker News, I'm the maker of Kopage, a free & self-hosted Website Builder. While working on new, cool features (AI, of course), it would be great to hear some HN feedback :) Thanks, Simon

Hi HN, I’ve been working on an AI-powered website builder that allows anyone to create a fully functional website in just a few minutes. No coding, no design skills—just a simple, intuitive process with AI handling the heavy lifting. Here’s what you can do with it: • Create a website by entering a name, description, and subdomain. • Use AI to design the site, customize content, and edit sections with simple prompts. • Preview, tweak, and publish your website live instantly. • Download the code for full flexibility if you want to self-host or integrate. It’s still an MVP, and I’ve got lots of…

A friend and I built this as a side project to help us collaborate on files with our agents. Claude / Codex kept outputting .md and .html files which are great until we needed to share them, so we built this small website to help with that. Agent can either use an HTTP + Skill or an MCP which also uses MCP Apps to add widgets to Claude Desktop / Mobile chat. Would love any feedback and hopefully this helps someone else as it did us!

Every now and then I see these posts where people post the domains they purchased for XYZ side project that is clearly not happening. But considering how difficult it can be to find a good name, its always nice to see what people are willing to part with. Post your domains!

We launched PureBlazor CMS today to help .NET devs deploy simple drag-and-drop sites with a fully provisioned infrastructure (AI SEO editor, hosting, security, auth, etc.). Once you’ve built a site, you can hand it over to your non-technical users to run independently. They can drag and drop blocks visually, edit text, and update the site’s SEO with our native AI editor. Please, check out our free trial at https://cms.pureblazor.com - we can’t wait to hear what you think.

I participated in the Nvidia + Vercel 2 hour hackathon in SF tonight, and built something I've wanted, but hadn't tried building. I implemented an MCP Server and VS Code extension to allow Claude Desktop to place breakpoints, step through code, and execute expressions (assuming language support). So you can ask it a question that requires actually stepping through the code and now it can actually do that - check values for you, etc. It's _definitely_ not perfect. Have improvements? Please make a PR!

I’ve been exploring LLM-driven developer workflows and built a demo where Claude Code acts like a Replit-style frontend for infrastructure. - You write a prompt in Claude - Claude generates a workload spec - Humanitec receives the spec and deterministically deploys infra to GCP (via Terraform) - App is up in under 1 minute — no pipelines, no DevOps tickets The backend is policy-enforcing and built for enterprise use cases (used by large orgs like Apple, ABB, etc.), but the flow feels like magic for devs or agents. demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvx9CgBSgG0 Repo:…

I built it for myself because ngrok didn't let me add one more domain unless I paid $12 more. I probably should've looked for alternatives before building my own, but my grudge got in the way . Once I started, I wanted to make it better than the other options. Silly, I know. No one probably cares. I plan to open source it sometime next year because I’ve got other projects to finish first. It's free until I deplete my cloud credits, then it will switch to a tier-based model with a free option.

We're been seeing an explosion of agent generated artifacts get shared in companies, but with no place to put them or comment on them their utility is limited. We're building Valet to give agents the tools to collaborate with humans.

Hey HN — I'm Michael from Decipher (https://getdecipher.com). We build infrastructure for autonomously generating and maintaining end-to-end tests. Today we’re launching our Claude Code integration. We built this because as teams ship more code, especially with coding agents, they need more regression coverage. Claude can already generate a decent Playwright file from a repo and prompt. That solves first-draft generation. It does not solve repeatability. A generated test is still a static guess. The real problems start when it meets the live app: the browser is logged out, a modal…

Happy New Year HN! I’m the co-creator of Orbiter, a dead simple tool for uploading and hosting static sites. We built Orbiter for ourselves and realized it would probably be useful for others. Static site content is some of the simplest on the web, yet hosting this content has gotten increasingly complex over time. Many of you are engineers and don’t have much problem with CI/CD pipelines as a mechanism for deploying a website. This is true for me as well. But there are times when I want to just upload a simple website. I might not even want to put it under source control. And I know…

Hey HN, I'm a heavy Obsidian user. I recently got tired of the two usual sync tradeoffs: 1. File-based sync (iCloud/Dropbox/Syncthing) that leaves you waiting for changes to propagate, or hands you a "conflicted copy." 2. Self-hosted setups (like CouchDB) that need touching VMs and dockerized databases to sync markdown. So I built YAOS: a local-first, real-time sync engine for Obsidian. Self-hosting OSS should have better UX. You can deploy the backend to your own Cloudflare account in one click. It fits comfortably in Cloudflare's free tier (costing $0/month for normal…

I got tired of screenshotting claude code sessions to share with teammates, so I built this. It converts session into beautiful web pages with proper rendering of tool calls. Works by parsing CC's session, extracting steps, then uploading to a simple sharing service. Takes about 2 seconds to generate a shareable link. Live examples: - https://cc.getpochi.com/s/IldMh27j (Research claude-code-share repo) - https://cc.getpochi.com/s/mrqGqgOT (Creating an issue in a GitHub repo)

Hey folks, I wanted to share Agenthost.ai -- a platform I built that makes it easy to create and host custom agents on your website with payment processing through Stripe built right in. I know everyone is excited about the OpenAI's Appstore like GPTStore coming this week but I'm more excited about a more web-like model. A world where you can create your agent, put it on your website, decide how much you want to charge for certain features, and then let others come and discover it. No need to worry about the platform deciding to compete with you and using your data to train its models. So…

Fog Creek gave us a couple of months to work on something "new" for the company. After a ton of brainstorming, we came up with an idea kind of like JS fiddle for CSS, but with instant hosting baked-in. The result is http://webputty.net WebPutty is built on Google AppEngine (a first for Fog Creek) using Python with Flask and Jinja2. We'd love to hear what you think and if you find it useful!
