Static Site
Learn how to deploy a plain HTML/CSS/JS site with Ink using a simple prompt.
Create an Ink account and connect Ink
Make sure you have an Ink account and have set up Ink for your agent. Use the CLI, the Ink Skill, or MCP. For MCP auth, choose:
- OAuth — authenticate through a browser flow, no keys to manage
- Token — create an API key at deployink.com/account/api-keys
See Quick Start for full setup instructions.
Verify the connection
Once Ink is connected, confirm your agent can reach it by asking it to check.
Do you have Ink connected?
Create a static site
Ask your agent to create a plain HTML/CSS/JS site. If you already have static files in the current directory, skip this step and go straight to deploying.
Create a simple portfolio website with HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript. Include an about page, projects section, and contact form.
Deploy with Ink
Tell your agent to deploy. The agent will create a git repository on Ink's internal git (or your connected GitHub), push the code, and call service_create to trigger a build.
Static sites use the static build pack — no build step, files are served directly via nginx.
Deploy with Ink
repo_create(
"name": "portfolio"
)service_create(
"name": "portfolio",
"repo": "ink/portfolio",
"build_pack": "static"
)Visit your website
Ink returns a live URL once the deployment completes. Visit it to see your site running in production.
Check logs and metrics (optional)
Ask your agent to pull build logs, runtime logs, or metrics for your deployed service.
Check metrics and logs
service_get(
"name": "portfolio",
"deploy_log_lines": "50",
"runtime_log_lines": "50"
)That's it — your static site is deployed and live. From here you can add a custom domain or explore more examples.
