What it does

Connect your coding agent over MCP and it ships your repo. fline writes the Dockerfile and the compose, picks the ports, provisions managed Postgres or Valkey, and hands back a URL already serving. The work happens outside your agent's context, so the deploy does not eat the session you were using to build. Secret values never pass through the agent: it declares the variable names, gets a link, and hands it to you unopened. Private beta, one node, and a maintained list of what does not work.

Built an app with Claude Code? Ask it to put your app on fline. Get a link you can send and a database of your own. Free during the private beta.

Send people a link, add a database of your own, and use a web address you own. Ask Claude Code to put it on fline. Today: your project in a folder on your computer, and Claude Code or Codex to send it. Cursor and VS Code have setup steps too, not yet tested from start to finish. Free during the private beta. No card. We open accounts by hand, a few at a time. Paste one line from your fline dashboard into your computer's Terminal app, then follow its steps to approve fline in your browser. If your app needs keys, it gives you a link to a private fline page where you type them. Your app has a link that opens on any phone or computer. If something breaks, ask again. Ask Claude Code to put your…from dev.fline.sh

  • Agent 37Mar 2026 · agent37.com · ▲401

    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?

  • KeystoneMar 2026 · github.com · ▲125

    We kept hitting the same wall: you clone some arbitrary repo and just want it to run without any configuration work. So we built Keystone, an open source tool that spins up a Modal sandbox, runs Claude Code inside it, and produces a working .devcontainer/ config (Dockerfile, devcontainer.json, test runner) for any git repo. We build on the dev container standard, so the output works with VS Code and GitHub Codespaces out of the box. Main use cases: reproducible dev/CI environments, self-describing repos, and safely sandboxed coding agents. Our goal is to encourage all repos to…

    n8n is built for humans dragging nodes on a canvas. That breaks down at B2B scale (embedding in a product, multi-tenant scalability, etc). n8n does have an MCP server so agents can create workflows too, but it outputs raw JSON. That's fine for n8n's engine, but painful for a coding agent (or a human reviewing its output) to read, write, diff, or debug. I'm building an alternative where workflows are authored by a coding agent in [a more dev-legible format] instead of JSON blobs, and execute it at scale.

  • Neptune – Give your coding agents DevOps superpowersDec 2025 · github.com · ▲18

    Hi HN, We are the team behind Shuttle (YC S20). We just shipped Neptune, (https://github.com/shuttle-hq/neptune-mcp) an open source MCP server that lets coding agents actually deploy software, not just write code. Behind it is an app deployment platform we built to be friendly for AI agents. Neptune runs in your IDE. It reads your codebase, analyzes its structure and intent using ASTs and inference, and generates a deterministic infrastructure spec called neptune.json. You can inspect every change, approve it, and apply it. Think: coding agents that can actually ship…

    Persistent Docker Workspaces for Coding Agents

  • Run LLMs in Docker for any language without prebuilding containersJan 2026 · github.com · ▲26

    I've been looking for a way to run LLMs safely without needing to approve every command. There are plenty of projects out there that run the agent in docker, but they don't always contain the dependencies that I need. Then it struck me. I already define project dependencies with mise. What if we could build a container on the fly for any project by reading the mise config? I've been using agent-en-place for a couple of weeks now, and it's working great! I'd love to hear what y'all think

    A proactive AI executive assistant for founders

    AI · Aug 2026 · heynoah.io

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
