  • No CLI required for humans
  • MCP for agents (sign-in or API key)
  • Host a static zip in seconds

How to do it

  1. 1. Drop the artifact

    Upload a log dump, screenshot, spec, or PDF without creating a bucket.

  2. 2. Paste it on the ticket

    The URL is enough for a bug report, support thread, or PR comment.

  3. 3. Delete when you are done

    The link lives until you remove the project, so you control how long it stays up.

Complement your stack

Keep production on Pages, Netlify, or your cloud. Use drophost when the cost of a deploy pipeline is higher than the value of the preview.

Static zips, not git deploys

Export dist/, zip it, drop it. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript run in the browser. There is no Node or PHP runtime for your site. From an agent, call publish_site with the zip.

From Claude or ChatGPT, publish the preview

Connect drophost MCP once, then ask your agent to publish the preview instead of attaching a zip. You get the same live *.drophost.space URL as a dashboard drop. Recipients just open the link.

Ship a static proof without CI theater

Developers zip an HTML export or drop a single page on drophost and get a live drophost.space URL. Free includes HTML sites, Markdown, CSV, and images at 2 MB on one project. Replace the zip when you fix a bug; reviewers keep one bookmark, and recipients never need an account.

Agent-friendly publish from the IDE

Create a hashed API key on drophost and call MCP at /api/mcp with publish_site or publish_file. Starter at €5/mo unlocks passwords, custom domains, and 100 MB across 8 projects. MCP oneshot uploads cap at 4 MB—use the HTTP API for larger artifacts while keeping the same project URL.

Common questions

Is drophost a replacement for S3?

No. Keep production assets in your cloud. Use drophost when standing up object storage is more work than the file is worth.

Can I share logs and screenshots without a CLI?

Yes. Browser upload is the whole drophost workflow. Recipients do not need to sign in.

Are drophost links HTTPS?

Yes. Every drophost project URL is served over HTTPS.

Can I host a static site zip on drophost?

Yes. On drophost, switch to Website, drop a zip that contains index.html, and copy the URL. Keep production deploys on Pages or Netlify.

Can an agent publish to drophost?

Yes. Create a drophost API key in Settings and connect any MCP client to /api/mcp. Use publish_file or publish_site. Humans can still upload in the browser with no CLI.
