Publish files and folders to the web instantly. Static hosting for HTML sites,
images, PDFs, and any file type. Sites can connect to external APIs (LLMs,
databases, email, payments) via proxy routes with server-side credential
injection. Use when asked to "publish this", "host this", "deploy this",
"share this on the web", "make a website", "put this online", "upload to
the web", "create a webpage", "share a link", "serve this site", "generate
a URL", or "build a chatbot". Outputs a live, shareable URL at {slug}.here.now.

# here.now
Create a live URL from any file or folder. Static hosting with optional proxy routes for calling external APIs server-side.
## Current docs
**Before answering questions about here.now capabilities, features, or workflows, read the current docs:**
→ **https://here.now/docs**
Read the docs:
- at the first here.now-related interaction in a conversation
- any time the user asks how to do something
- any time the user asks what is possible, supported, or recommended
- before telling the user a feature is unsupported
Topics that require current docs (do not rely on local skill text alone):
- custom domains
- payments and payment gating
- forking
- proxy routes and service variables
- handles and links
- limits and quotas
- SPA routing
- error handling and remediation
- feature availability
**If docs and live API behavior disagree, trust the live API behavior.**
If the docs fetch fails or times out, continue with the local skill and live API/script output. Prefer live API behavior for active operations.
## Requirements
- Required binaries: `curl`, `file`, `jq`
- Optional environment variable: `$HERENOW_API_KEY`
- Optional credentials file: `~/.herenow/credentials`
- Skill script path: `${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/publish.sh`
## Create a site
```bash
PUBLISH="${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/publish.sh"
bash "$PUBLISH" {file-or-dir} --client hermes
```
Outputs the live URL (e.g. `https://bright-canvas-a7k2.here.now/`).
Under the hood this is a three-step flow: create/update -> upload files -> finalize. A site is not live until finalize succeeds.
Without an API key this creates an **anonymous site** that expires in 24 hours.
With a saved API key, the site is permanent.
**File structure:** For HTML sites, place `index.html` at the root of the directory you publish, not inside a subdirectory. The directory's contents become the site root. For example, publish `my-site/` where `my-site/index.html` exists — don't publish a parent folder that contains `my-site/`.
You can also publish raw files without any HTML. Single files get a rich auto-viewer (images, PDF, video, audio). Multiple files get an auto-generated directory listing with folder navigation and an image gallery.
## Update an existing site
```bash
PUBLISH="${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/publish.sh"
bash "$PUBLISH" {file-or-dir} --slug {slug} --client hermes
```
The script auto-loads the `claimToken` from `.herenow/state.json` when updating anonymous sites. Pass `--claim-token {token}` to override.
Authenticated updates require a saved API key.
## API key storage
The publish script reads the API key from these sources (first match wins):
1. `--api-key {key}` flag (CI/scripting only — avoid in interactive use)
2. `$HERENOW_API_KEY` environment variable
3. `~/.herenow/credentials` file (recommended for agents)
To store a key, write it to the credentials file:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.herenow && echo "{API_KEY}" > ~/.herenow/credentials && chmod 600 ~/.herenow/credentials
```
**IMPORTANT**: After receiving an API key, save it immediately — run the command above yourself. Do not ask the user to run it manually. Avoid passing the key via CLI flags (e.g. `--api-key`) in interactive sessions; the credentials file is the preferred storage method.
Never commit credentials or local state files (`~/.herenow/credentials`, `.herenow/state.json`) to source control.
## Getting an API key
To upgrade from anonymous (24h) to permanent sites:
1. Ask the user for their email address.
2. Request a one-time sign-in code:
```bash
curl -sS https://here.now/api/auth/agent/request-code \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-d '{"email": "user@example.com"}'
```
3. Tell the user: "Check your inbox for a sign-in code from here.now and paste it here."
4. Verify the code and get the API key:
```bash
curl -sS https://here.now/api/auth/agent/verify-code \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-d '{"email":"user@example.com","code":"ABCD-2345"}'
```
5. Save the returned `apiKey` yourself (do not ask the user to do this):
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.herenow && echo "{API_KEY}" > ~/.herenow/credentials && chmod 600 ~/.herenow/credentials
```
## State file
After every site create/update, the script writes to `.herenow/state.json` in the working directory:
```json
{
"publishes": {
"bright-canvas-a7k2": {
"siteUrl": "https://bright-canvas-a7k2.here.now/",
"claimToken": "abc123",
"claimUrl": "https://here.now/claim?slug=bright-canvas-a7k2&token=abc123",
"expiresAt": "2026-02-18T01:00:00.000Z"
}
}
}
```
Before creating or updating sites, you may check this file to find prior slugs.
Treat `.herenow/state.json` as internal cache only.
Never present this local file path as a URL, and never use it as source of truth for auth mode, expiry, or claim URL.
## What to tell the user
- Always share the `siteUrl` from the current script run.
- Read and follow `publish_result.*` lines from script stderr to determine auth mode.
- When `publish_result.auth_mode=authenticated`: tell the user the site is **permanent** and saved to their account. No claim URL is needed.
- When `publish_result.auth_mode=anonymous`: tell the user the site **expires in 24 hours**. Share the claim URL (if `publish_result.claim_url` is non-empty and starts with `https://`) so they can keep it permanently. Warn that claim tokens are only returned once and cannot be recovered.
- Never tell the user to inspect `.herenow/state.json` for claim URLs or auth status.
## Script options
| Flag | Description |
| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| `--slug {slug}` | Update an existing site instead of creating |
| `--claim-token {token}`| Override claim token for anonymous updates |
| `--title {text}` | Viewer title (non-HTML sites) |
| `--description {text}` | Viewer description |
| `--ttl {seconds}` | Set expiry (authenticated only) |
| `--client {name}` | Agent name for attribution (e.g. `hermes`) |
| `--base-url {url}` | API base URL (default: `https://here.now`) |
| `--allow-nonherenow-base-url` | Allow sending auth to non-default `--base-url` |
| `--api-key {key}` | API key override (prefer credentials file) |
| `--spa` | Enable SPA routing (serve index.html for unknown paths) |
| `--forkable` | Allow others to fork this site |
## Beyond the script
For all other operations — delete, metadata, passwords, payments, domains, handles, links, variables, proxy routes, forking, duplication, and more — see the current docs:
