## What nexlayer does, in the publisher's words

Ship your app to a live URL from inside your coding agent.

The official Nexlayer plugin: the Nexlayer MCP server plus the two skills that teach an agent how to deploy on it and how to debug what it deployed.

One plugin, every agent. It follows the Agent Plugins 1.0 standard, so the same directory installs in Cursor, Codex, VS Code, and Claude Code.

## Skills

- debug-nexlayer: Debug and troubleshoot live Nexlayer deployments: exec into pods, edit files, query databases, restart services
- ship-it-nexlayer: Deploy any containerized application to Nexlayer AI Cloud Platform

Descriptions come from the frontmatter of each SKILL.md, punctuation lightly normalized.
