Cloche — Claude Code MCP server: publish apps
Cloche lets an AI agent publish a client-side app and share access through a link. Use it when you want others to open your app without manually distributing its files.
claude mcp add --transport http cloche https://mcp.cloche.dev/mcpWhat Cloche does
Cloche connects an AI agent to an app publishing service. The agent submits the app's files, name, address, icon, data schema and a short explanation of its purpose or recent changes. It can then publish the app and share a link. A brief handoff note can also help another chat resume the work.
The integration consists of an MCP server and a skill, with no scripts or hooks running locally. You can connect it to Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI, as well as other supported clients. The server endpoint is https://mcp.cloche.dev/mcp. Claude Code users can also install the bundled plugin through the marketplace commands /plugin marketplace add cloche-it/plugin and /plugin install cloche@cloche.
Cloche receives app files and related metadata. When an app displays information from another connected service, requests use either the viewer's credentials or the owner's access, depending on whether data is fetched on each visit or stored as a copy. Inviting collaborators also sends their names or email addresses. Review the app's data flow before publishing it.
