MCP Connector

Publish a website from your agent, in one message.

Hatch is not a Claude plugin. It is a public MCP server. If your agent can add a remote Streamable HTTP connector, paste this URL — no API key, no sign-in, no vendor lock-in.

The whole product is this URL

https://mcp.theroost.dev/mcp

Add it once. Ask the agent to hatch. You get a live URL at https://your-name.theroost.dev. Per-client recipes live in the install guide.

Will it work with my agent?

We do not certify vendors. Reassurance is the protocol plus what we have actually run. If your client speaks MCP over Streamable HTTP, Hatch is the same server Claude, Cursor, and Grok already call.

Agent		What that means
Claude, Cursor, Grok, Hermes, OpenClaw	Tested	We have hatched live sites from these clients.
Codex / OpenAI, Windsurf, any Streamable HTTP MCP client	Expected	Same transport Hatch already serves. We have not run a Hatch pass on Codex yet.
Muse	New	Cursor’s new model, not a separate connector. Same Hatch MCP as Cursor. We think it will work; we have not run a dedicated Muse pass yet.

Stdio-only clients can still connect through mcp-remote. That is a bridge, not a second product.

Add it

Claude Cursor Grok Hermes OpenClaw Codex Muse Windsurf Other MCP

Claude.ai & Claude Desktop

Open Settings → Connectors.
Click Add custom connector.
Paste the URL https://mcp.theroost.dev/mcp and leave authentication set to None.
Save, then fully quit and reopen Claude Desktop (a window reload isn't enough).

Custom connectors are available on Claude Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise.

Claude Code (CLI)

claude mcp add --transport http hatch https://mcp.theroost.dev/mcp

Any stdio-only client (via mcp-remote)

If your client only speaks local stdio, bridge to the remote endpoint with mcp-remote (needs Node 20+):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hatch": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.theroost.dev/mcp", "--transport", "http-only"]
    }
  }
}

What your agent can do with it

Tool	What it does
`hatch`	Create a brand-new site and return its live URL.
`upload`	Add or replace files on a site you already made.
`lookup`	Find a site you made earlier by its name (slug).
`convert`	Rename a site's URL or Pin it while subscription slots remain.
`catalog` / `checkout`	Collect Pin, Pack, Roost, or Roost Audit payment in chat.
`deploy`	Advanced: replace a site's server-side code.

Try these prompts

After connecting, paste any of these into your assistant:

“Build me a one-page landing site for my dog-walking side hustle and give me the link.” → hatch · instant site

“Here's my portfolio — an index.html, a styles.css, and three photos. Put it online for me.” → hatch · uploads your files

“Add a contact page to the site you just made.” → upload · adds a file to the existing site

“What was the URL of the site I made yesterday? The name was ‘tacobot’.” → lookup · finds your site again

“Rename my site to ferns-and-co.” → convert · changes the URL

“Build a status dashboard from this script and tell me how to keep it updating.” → hatch/upload · live URL now; refresh stays on your cron, CI, or re-ask

“Turn this pricing analysis into an interactive breakdown I can walk the board through, and put it live.” → hatch · an explorable, built for one meeting

“Make a listing site for the open house at 42 Maple and hatch it on theroost.homes.” → hatch · lives on a vertical namespace, sized to the occasion

Tiers & limits

Free sites live 48 hours at a time. A site created through the connector is a Hatch: it goes live instantly and stays up for 48 hours. Try HITL while it lives. Perfect for demos, explorables, and "show me a URL right now."

Pin it. Ask your agent to collect payment — $4.99/yr keeps one hatch for a year. Pack it for extra storage at $4.99/yr per GB.

Roost ($259/mo) is the team plan: fair-use ephemeral hatches, 10 subscription Pins, durable HITL, unlimited members. Roost Audit ($459/mo) adds an exportable audit trail and 1-year retention. Custom domain is +$29/mo on those plans. Ask your agent to catalog then checkout — pay the URL in chat; Hatch watches for the payment.

Fair-use limits. To keep the free service healthy, new-site creation is rate-limited per hour. If your agent tells you it's been throttled, wait a little and try again.

Privacy

The connector publishes whatever content you ask your agent to publish to a public URL. See the Privacy Policy for exactly what's stored and for how long.
