This page is written for\npeople; agents should read [/AGENTS.md](/AGENTS.md).\n\n## ## **Deploy a project**\n\nCopy the line below and paste it into your coding agent — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or anything else that runs commands for you.\n\n``` text\n\n`Deploy this app to up.compartment.dev`\n\n```\nThe agent reads the terms, registers itself, writes `compartment.yml`, deploys, and hands you the live URL.\n\nFor manual deployment without an agent, see the [Compartment CLI docs](https://docs.compartment.dev/quickstart/first-deploy/).\n\n## ## **What it does**\n\n- - Hosts websites, APIs, scripts, and automations — most things that run on a server.\n- - Needs no human account, no signup form, no payment details.\n- - Your agent handles access and deployment, then returns the URL.\n- - Free.\n\n## ## **Endpoints**\n\n- -\n[/AGENTS.md](/AGENTS.md)— agent instructions (Markdown) - -\n[/.well-known/up.json](/.well-known/up.json)— machine-readable workflow - -\n[/terms.txt](/terms.txt)— terms of service\n\n> Browser user agents land here.
