No git. No registry. Just HTTPS.
Two skills ship in one bundle: website-deploy (deploy) and
website-deploy-builder (figure out what to add). Pick whichever
install path matches your agent. Claude web and desktop users can upload
the two ZIP files directly; local coding agents can use the shell installer.
Download the two skill ZIPs
Use this path when you're in the Claude website or desktop app and do not have a local shell attached to the chat.
website-deploy
Deploys a local static site to Simple Host, including auth, packaging, upload, and verification.
website-deploy-builder
Helps decide what to build on Simple Host and turns an idea into an implementation prompt.
In Claude, enable Code execution and file creation if Skills are hidden,
then open Customize > Skills, click +,
choose Create skill, choose Upload a skill,
and upload one ZIP at a time. Repeat for the second ZIP, then toggle both
skills on. Official guidance:
Use Skills in Claude.
Tell a local agent to install them
Paste this into a fresh chat with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or any local agent with shell and HTTPS access. The agent fetches and installs — no commands for you to run.
Install the Simple Host skills onto this machine. If you use Claude Code or another agent that reads ~/.claude/skills, run: curl -fsSL https://simple-host.ideaflow.page/install.sh | sh If you use Codex CLI or another agent that reads ~/.agents/skills, run: curl -fsSL https://simple-host.ideaflow.page/install.sh | sh -s -- ~/.agents/skills Then list the skills you have available — two new ones should appear: website-deploy, website-deploy-builder. Restart yourself if needed for them to be picked up.
The script downloads /skills.zip (a few KB of markdown),
extracts it into the right directory, and exits. No git, no npm, no
registry, no marketplace.
Run the installer directly
If you'd rather run the install yourself:
curl -fsSL https://simple-host.ideaflow.page/install.sh | sh
Override the destination directory (Codex CLI, custom agent, etc.):
curl -fsSL https://simple-host.ideaflow.page/install.sh | sh -s -- ~/.agents/skills
The script is plain shell and only does curl +
unzip into a directory you choose. You can read it
before piping if you'd like:
view install.sh.
--plugin-url
Claude Code supports loading a plugin from an HTTPS URL for the current session. Useful for trying the skills without touching your filesystem:
claude --plugin-url https://simple-host.ideaflow.page/plugin.zip
Session-only — once you exit Claude Code the skills are gone, and
you'll need the flag again next time. For permanent install, use one
of the paths above. Skills installed this way are namespaced under
the plugin (e.g. simple-host-website:website-deploy-builder)
rather than appearing as user-level skills.
If you can't run shell scripts
Browser-download skills.zip, then extract:
# Claude Code mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills unzip -o ~/Downloads/simple-host-skills.zip -d ~/.claude/skills/ # Codex CLI / generic mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills unzip -o ~/Downloads/simple-host-skills.zip -d ~/.agents/skills/
Restart your agent. Two folders should appear inside the skills directory.
Use the skills
Common entry points:
- "Use the
website-deployskill to deploy this directory. My email is you@example.com." — first-time only; registers and saves an API key locally. - "Use the
website-deploy-builderskill — I want to add a shared comment board to my site." — maps your idea to capabilities (static / state / external APIs) and produces a wiring prompt.
