About Undocking
Undocking is an open-source content deployment platform built specifically for AI agents that need to publish generated content to the web without human intervention. If you have built an agent that produces HTML pages, reports, documentation, or any other web-ready artifact, Undocking handles the hosting and URL generation so your agent can hand off a shareable link as soon as it finishes working. The entire publish step collapses into a single call, which closes the loop on workflows that would otherwise require someone to manually upload or deploy the output.
The problem it addresses is a gap that shows up in most agentic workflows. Your agent can research, write, format, and even revise content on its own, but actually getting that content onto a public URL where someone else can view it usually requires either calling a complex deployment API, provisioning infrastructure, or handing the task back to a human. Undocking eliminates that last-mile friction. The agent requests deployment with the content payload, and the service responds with an instant public URL. There is no build step, no CI pipeline, no waiting for infrastructure to spin up. The URL is live immediately and can be shared anywhere.
The workflow operates through a simple three-step process. First, you connect your agent by pasting a prompt or configuration into Undocking that tells the agent where to send content when it is ready to publish. Second, the agent issues a deploy command using natural language or a direct API call. Third, Undocking generates a public link and returns it to the agent, which can then include that link in its output or pass it along to the user who triggered the workflow. The entire round-trip happens within the same conversation or task execution, so the agent never has to pause for manual intervention.
Authentication is handled through GitHub or Google OAuth, which keeps onboarding fast for developers who already have accounts on those platforms. You sign in once to link your account, and then your agents can publish under that identity. The platform is built on Next.js infrastructure and designed to be minimal by default. There is no elaborate dashboard to configure, no hosting options to choose between, and no CDN settings to tune. You send content, you get a URL, and the content is live. That simplicity is deliberate because the target user is a developer who already has enough complexity in the agent itself and does not want to replicate a full deployment pipeline just to share output.
The project is open source and hosted on GitHub at github.com/marciojmo/undocking, which means you can self-host if you want full control over where content lives, how long URLs persist, or how access is managed. For developers who prefer not to run their own instance, the hosted version handles the infrastructure so you can focus on the agent side of the equation rather than deployment plumbing. The open-source nature also means you can audit the code, contribute improvements, or fork it for a custom use case without waiting on a vendor roadmap.
The target audience is developers building agents that need to produce artifacts other people will view. That includes agents that generate reports, dashboards, documentation, landing pages, or any other content that makes sense as a standalone webpage. If your agent currently outputs a file that you then have to upload somewhere else, or if it returns markdown that a human has to render and host, Undocking removes that extra step. It is also useful for prototyping agentic workflows where you want to see results quickly without setting up deployment infrastructure for every experiment.
Because the project is open source, there is no pricing in the traditional sense. You can run your own instance for free if you have the infrastructure. The hosted version does not display pricing tiers on the site, and access appears to be free through the standard login flow. You would need to contact the maintainers to learn whether there are usage limits or paid plans for higher volume, but the positioning suggests the project is oriented toward the developer and research community rather than enterprise SaaS.
The overall design philosophy is developer-first with a focus on simplicity over configurability. If you need a quick way to get agent output onto the web without building a custom publishing pipeline, Undocking is designed to be that single-purpose tool. It does not try to be a CMS, an editor, or a full-featured hosting platform. It does one thing, publishing agent content to URLs, and it does that with minimal friction.
