Copilot can write it. Now it can publish it.
Add agenthost as an MCP server and agent mode gets one more thing it can do: take the project you have open and give you back a working address for it.
Agent mode can edit, run and test. It just cannot ship.
Copilot will happily work across the whole workspace: change the files, run the terminal, read what came back and go round again. Then it reaches the deploy, and the deploy lives behind a browser, an account and a form only you can fill in.
agenthost turns that into another tool it can call. Ask for the project to go online and it sends the files, we work out what they are and run them, and the answer is an https link. Nothing is configured on our side, so there is no build command, entrypoint or port setting for agent mode to have to ask you about.
Because the tools include the logs and a rollback, the whole loop stays in the editor. Deploy, see it fall over, read the trace, fix the file, deploy again. If the fix was worse, put the previous version back.
You ask for it in a sentence.
There are no commands to learn on our side. These are whole sentences, typed the way you would say them to a person, and each one is a thing agenthost does.
put this online
Sends the open project, works out the runtime, and answers with a working https link.
it needs an environment variable for the API key
Sets it as a secret on the app, so it never has to sit in the repo.
read the logs, it 502s on the form
Pulls the running app’s logs, finds the trace, and can fix and redeploy in one turn.
deploy from the repo on github instead
Links the repo and deploys from a branch, without a pipeline to write.
roll it back
Every deploy keeps the one before it, so this is a sentence.
There is more of this in the how-to guides, which are written for your agent to read as much as for you.
Whatever it built, it can publish.
You do not have to know what it is made of. Your agent works that out and tells us.
A website or page
The one-pager, the portfolio, the event invite. Files, served fast, with nothing to build first.
Ten free, forever, no card.
How it works →An app that saves things
Sign-ups, notes, bookings, orders. Somewhere to run and a database to remember, together.
€4 a month, database included.
How it works →Node, Python, PHP
Express, Flask, Django, a script that has to run. One fixed convention each, and no build command to get right.
The contract, in full.
What runs here →- framework preset
- build command
- output directory
- install command
- API keys
- credit card
- region
Nothing here can stop and ask you a question.
Every one of these is a setting some other host would demand before it would take your files. None of them exists here, which is why your agent can go from a folder to a working link without checking in.
- Dockerfiles
- port settings
- TLS certificates
- DNS records
- CI pipelines
- health checks
- scaling rules
The one thing agenthost does expect is an entrypoint per runtime, and the deploy reference is where VS Code reads it before the first deploy.
How it connects.
The button opens VS Code’s MCP install prompt with agenthost already filled in. MCP servers are used from GitHub Copilot’s agent mode, so that is where you will see it.
By hand: run MCP: Add Server from the command palette, choose HTTP, and paste https://agenthost.eu/mcp.
Add the server
VS Code shows the name and address it is about to add and waits for you to approve it. Nothing is installed until you do.
Sign in with your email
The first time Copilot calls agenthost it opens your browser. You type the code we email you and approve the connection. There is no key to paste.
Ask in agent mode
Switch Copilot Chat to agent mode and say put this online. If you are new to agenthost, that first deploy is what creates your account.
Nothing is added until you approve it, and no password is ever handled by the editor. The get started page walks through all of it, with the buttons and the sign-in step.
The usual ones.
Do I need GitHub Copilot for this?
Yes, or at least agent mode, because that is where VS Code uses MCP servers. Ask mode and inline suggestions do not call tools, so the deploy would have nothing to go through.
Does it work in Codespaces or a dev container?
It works as long as the sign-in can open a browser once. If it cannot, sign in on a machine that can, then ask for an API token and give it to the environment that cannot.
Is it added for one workspace or all of them?
Either. VS Code lets you add an MCP server to your user settings, which covers everything you open, or to a single workspace when you want it scoped to one project.
What can it do besides deploy?
Create projects, read logs, roll back, attach a database, set environment variables, add a domain, invite people to something private, and open a support ticket if it gets stuck.
Is there an API key to paste anywhere?
No. agenthost signs you in through your browser, and your agent never sees a password or a key. There is nothing to copy out of one window and into another, and nothing to rotate later.
What does it cost to try?
Nothing, and there is no card. Your first ten websites are free and stay free. You only pay when the thing you built has to run code on our side, or when you want it on your own domain.
Can I connect more than one agent to the same account?
Yes, as many as you like. They all see the same projects, so you can build something in one and update it from another. Connecting the second one is a single click, because your browser is already signed in.
Where is this actually hosted?
In the EU, by a European company. Your files, your database and your logs stay here, and so does the billing.
Not what you use?
agenthost is a standard remote MCP server, so anything that speaks MCP can drive it. These are the ones with a page of their own.
