## What portal-deploy does, in the publisher's words

portal-deploy is a portable, skills-only Agent Plugin for exposing and verifying local apps through Portal, and for reaching services that others published through it. Portal keeps the service on the local machine; this plugin does not turn Portal into a cloud build or hosting platform.

The root plugin.json is the single portable identity and metadata contract. Every host discovers the same skills/ directory.

Cursor consumes the portable root manifest directly. Claude Code discovers skills/ from the plugin root, so neither host needs a second per-plugin manifest.

- Deploy the app in this repository with Portal and verify the public URL.
- Expose this app with Portal, protect GET /paid with x402, and verify the payment challenge.

## Skills

- portal-connect: Reach, inspect, or consume a service that someone published through a Portal relay. Turns a Portal hostname, a service name plus relay, or a bare service name into the right public URL (name.relay-host over HTTPS) or raw host:port, lists what is live on a public or self-hosted relay through GET /ap…
- portal-expose: Expose, preview, protect with x402 payments, or keep a local web app, static site, HTTP route set, or explicitly requested TCP/UDP service reachable through Portal, then verify the public endpoint and report its lifecycle. This is the app side of Portal, the same flow as the quick-start form on a r…
- portal-relay: Set up and run a public Portal relay on any Linux host with a public IP, Docker Compose deployment, embedded authoritative DNS with one-time NS delegation, optional TCP/UDP lease ports for game hosting, and registration in the public relay pool. Use when the user asks to run their own relay, contri…
