unlocalhost lets coding agents deploy apps with access control built in
A builder behind unlocalhost says they made a tool for the awkward part of vibe coding: sharing what the agent built. Instead of wiring up servers, domains, certificates, and login systems by hand, users can tell their coding agent to install and deploy via unlocalhost.
What the product does
- Deploys directly from a coding agent with minimal setup.
- Lets you specify who is allowed in.
- Generates a real link, but blocks everyone except named users before they reach the app.
- Avoids writing login code entirely.
- Refuses deployment if it detects a secret committed in the repo.
Positioning
The author frames it as a way to move from “I built something with an AI agent” to “I can safely share it” without getting bogged down in infrastructure or auth plumbing.
They also invite people to try breaking it and contribute feedback.
