## What is BrewPage

[BrewPage](https://brewpage.app) is a free instant hosting service for HTML pages, Markdown documents,
multi-file sites, AI artifacts, JSON documents, key-value stores, and binary files.
No signup or API key required for creation. Use the exact returned primary HTTPS `link`; publications may use a BrewPage path or their own content host.

Key characteristics:

- **HTML and Markdown pages** -- publish raw HTML or Markdown rendered to styled HTML, up to 5 MB, with instant short URLs.
- **Multi-file sites** -- upload a ZIP archive or individual files (up to 200 files, 5 MB per file, 20 MB total; current values at `GET /api/limits`) and get a fully served static site.
- **Key-value store** -- KV pairs addressed by namespace/store ID, up to 1,000 keys per store, mutable in place via the owner token.
- **JSON documents** -- store and retrieve arbitrary JSON, up to 1 MiB per document, 10,000 documents per namespace.
- **File hosting** -- upload any safe file type (images, PDFs, video, audio, archives, code), up to 5 MB (video 20 MB), with inline preview.
- **Visibility** -- REST omitted `?ns=` selects `public`; MCP omitted namespace generates an unlisted namespace. Public unpassworded content may qualify for gallery discovery; search eligibility additionally depends on delivery. Custom namespaces are unlisted, readable by anyone with the link unless password-protected. Unlisted, protected or otherwise ineligible native responses carry `noindex`; eligible public HTML, sites and files may permit indexing.
- **Owner tokens** -- every publish response includes an `ownerToken`. Use it to update content in place (stable URL), delete it, or list your own resources. No accounts, no sessions.
- **TTL** -- default 15 days, ordinary maximum 30 days, configured through the REST `ttl` query parameter. Owner-specific caps and eligible automatic extensions can affect expiry; use returned `expiresAt`.
- **Access** -- unprotected reads and creation require no account. Protected reads use `X-Password`; owner updates, deletion and scoped lists use `X-Owner-Token`. Rate limits depend on operation/visibility; handle `429` and `Retry-After`.

The API base URL is `https://brewpage.app`. `brewdata.app` is a redirect domain: every path answers 301 to `brewpage.app`.

Choosing a host? See how BrewPage compares with GitHub Pages, Netlify Drop, Tiiny Host and other tools: [brewpage.app/compare](https://brewpage.app/compare).

## Why this matters for LLMs and agents

AI agents frequently need to share structured outputs -- reports, artifacts, generated HTML, intermediate JSON state -- with users or downstream systems via a stable URL. BrewPage provides that as a zero-setup REST API: one `POST` call, one URL back. No OAuth, no S3 bucket configuration, no infrastructure. The MCP server (`brewpage-mcp`) wraps the API into seventeen typed tools that any MCP-compatible agent (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cursor) can call directly.

## Quick Start

Publish an HTML page and get a shareable link:

```bash
curl -X POST 'https://brewpage.app/api/html?ns=public&format=html&ttl=15' \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: MyAgent/1.0" \
  -d '{"content": "<h1>Hello, world!</h1>"}'
```

Response:

```json
{
  "id": "aBcDeFgHiJ",
  "namespace": "public",
  "link": "https://brewpage.app/public/aBcDeFgHiJ",
  "ownerLink": "https://brewpage.app/api/html/public/aBcDeFgHiJ",
  "ownerToken": "your-secret-token",
  "expiresAt": "2026-06-04T02:00:00Z",
  "sizeBytes": 22
}
```

Open `link` in any browser -- no further steps required.

## Use Cases for LLMs and Agents

| Scenario | API call |
|----------|----------|
| An AI agent generates a shareable HTML report and needs a stable URL to return to the user | `POST /api/html` -- returns link immediately |
| A GPT pipeline needs to persist JSON state between conversation turns without external storage | `POST /api/json?ns=myproject` then `GET /api/json/myproject/{id}` |
| A code-generation tool produces a downloadable file (PDF, archive, script) and needs to host it | `POST /api/files` -- file served with correct MIME type and inline preview |
| An agent publishes an artifact and later refines it without invalidating the shared URL | `PUT /api/html/{ns}/{id}` with `X-Owner-Token` -- content replaced, URL unchanged |
| A multi-step pipeline deploys a complete static site (HTML + CSS + JS) from a ZIP | `POST /api/sites` with `archive=@site.zip` -- all files served with relative links intact |

## API Features

| Resource | Description | Limits |
|----------|-------------|--------|
| **HTML pages** | Raw HTML or Markdown with instant short URLs | 5 MB, TTL 1--30d |
| **Key-value store** | Named key-value pairs addressed by namespace/store ID | 1,000 keys/store |
| **JSON documents** | Store and retrieve arbitrary JSON with owner-scoped listing | 1 MiB, 10,000 docs/namespace |
| **Files** | Upload files with automatic MIME detection and inline preview | 5 MB (video 20 MB), 1,000 files/namespace |
| **Sites** | Multi-file HTML sites via ZIP or individual files | 20 MB total, 200 files, 5 MB/file, TTL 1--30d |

Creation returns a primary link and owner token. Keep the token for management and share the link exactly. Password protection excludes discovery; public namespace alone does not guarantee indexing. TTL and supported inputs vary by operation.

## API Examples

**Publish Markdown:**

```bash
curl -X POST "https://brewpage.app/api/html?format=markdown" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: MyAgent/1.0" \
  -d '{"content": "# My Document\n\nHello **world**"}'
```

**Store a JSON document:**

```bash
curl -X POST https://brewpage.app/api/json \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: MyAgent/1.0" \
  -d '{"name": "config", "version": 1}'
```

**Upload a site (ZIP archive):**

```bash
curl -X POST "https://brewpage.app/api/sites" \
  -H "User-Agent: MyAgent/1.0" \
  -F "archive=@site.zip;type=application/zip"
```

**Update content in place (stable URL):**

```bash
curl -X PUT "https://brewpage.app/api/html/public/aBcDeFgHiJ" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: MyAgent/1.0" \
  -H "X-Owner-Token: your-secret-token" \
  -d '{"content": "<h1>Updated content</h1>"}'
```

**Get platform stats:**

```bash
curl https://brewpage.app/api/stats
```

## API Reference

- **Interactive docs** -- [kochetkov-ma.github.io/brewpage-openapi](https://kochetkov-ma.github.io/brewpage-openapi/)
- **API Reference (Scalar)** -- [kochetkov-ma.github.io/brewpage-openapi/api-reference](https://kochetkov-ma.github.io/brewpage-openapi/api-reference/)
- **OpenAPI spec (YAML)** -- [`openapi/openapi.yaml`](openapi/openapi.yaml)
- **OpenAPI spec (JSON)** -- [`openapi/openapi.json`](openapi/openapi.json)

The backend-generated public JSON contract owns schema authority. YAML is derived deterministically; Scalar serves an identical JSON copy. See [`openapi/openapi.provenance.json`](openapi/openapi.provenance.json) for export provenance. Correct backend generation before importing a new snapshot; do not author schemas in YAML.

### Endpoints

## MCP Server

The `brewpage-mcp` package provides a Model Context Protocol server with **17 tools** for AI-assisted content publishing and management. Selected tools appear below; see [`mcp-server/README.md`](mcp-server/README.md) for the complete list and documentation.

Package releases use `.github/workflows/release.yml` with package-scoped npm Trusted Publisher/OIDC for `kochetkov-ma/brewpage-openapi`, workflow `release.yml`, without an environment. CI needs no `NPM_TOKEN`, manual npm login or static-token rotation. Local `npm whoami` does not validate GitHub Actions OIDC authentication. Publication to the official MCP registry (`io.github.kochetkov-ma/brewpage-mcp`) is automatic via GitHub OIDC in the same workflow; no local `mcp-publisher` token is needed.

To retry publication from a local terminal, dispatch the current `main` workflow:

```bash
gh workflow run release.yml --repo kochetkov-ma/brewpage-openapi --ref main
```

Rerunning historical tag workflows that used token authentication is unsupported; use current `main` instead. The retry checks the matching version tag and unchanged MCP source, and skips publication when that version already exists.

| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `publish_html` | Publish HTML or Markdown content with optional password, TTL, filename, and top toolbar |
| `publish_file` | Upload a file from a URL |
| `publish_site` | Publish a single-page or multi-file HTML site |
| `delete_resource` | Delete any resource (HTML, KV, JSON, file) by owner token |
| `get_page` | Fetch a published HTML page and its content |
| `get_stats` | Get platform-wide usage statistics |
