Show HN: Ink โ Deploy full-stack apps from AI agents via MCP or Skills
Show HN (score: 6)Description
We all know AI can write code, but deploying them still requires a human to wire it up: hosting, databases, DNS, and secrets. Ink gives agents those tools directly.
The agent calls "deploy" and the platform auto-detects the framework, builds it, deploys it, and returns a live URL at *.ml.ink. Here's a demo with Claude Code: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6ZM_RrIaC0.
What Ink does that I haven't seen elsewhere:
- One agent skill for compute + databases + DNS + secrets + domains + usage + metrics + logs + scaling. The agent doesn't juggle separate providers โ one account, one auth, one set of tools.
- DNS zone delegation. Delegate a zone once (e.g. dev.acme.com) and agents create any subdomain instantly โ no manual adding DNS records each time, no propagation wait.
- Multiple agents and humans share one workspace and collaborate on projects. I envision a future where many agents collaborate together. I'm working on a cool demo to share.
- Built-in git hosting. Agents push code and deploy without the human setting up GitHub first. No external account needed. (Of course if you're a developer you can store code on GitHub โ that's the recommended pattern.)
You also have what you'd expect: - UI with service observability designed for humans (logs, metrics, DNS). - GitHub integration โ push triggers auto-redeploy. - Per-minute billing for CPU, memory, and egress. No per-seat, no per-agent. - Error responses designed for LLMs. Structured reason codes with suggested next actions, not raw stack traces. When a deploy fails the agent reads the log, fixes it, and redeploys autonomously.

Show HN: PipeStep โ Step-through debugger for GitHub Actions workflows
Show HN: PipeStep โ Step-through debugger for GitHub Actions workflows Hey HN โ I kept seeing developers describe the same frustration: the commit-push-wait-read-logs cycle when debugging CI pipelines. So I built PipeStep.<p>PipeStep parses your GitHub Actions YAML, spins up the right Docker container, and gives you a step-through debugger for your run: shell commands.<p>You can: 1. Pause before each step and inspect the container state. 2. Shell into the running container mid-pipeline (press I). 3. Set breakpoints on specific steps (press B). 4. Retry failed steps or skip past others.<p>It deliberately does <i>not</i> try to replicate the full GitHub Actions runtime โ no secrets, no matrix builds, no uses: action execution. For full local workflow runs, use act. PipeStep is for when things break and you need to figure out why without pushing 10 more commits. Think of it as gdb for your CI pipeline rather than a local GitHub runner.<p>pip install pipestep (v0.1.2) ยท Python 3.11+ ยท MIT ยท Requires Docker<p>Would love feedback, especially from people who've hit the same pain point. Known limitations are documented in the README + have some issues in there that I'd love eyeballs on!
