Show HN: Ink – Deploy full-stack apps from AI agents via MCP or Skills

Hi HN, I built Ink, a full stack deployment platform where the primary users are AI agents, not humans.

We all know AI can write code, but deploying them still requires a human to wire it up: hosting, databases, DNS, and secrets. Ink gives agents those tools directly.

The agent calls "deploy" and the platform auto-detects the framework, builds it, deploys it, and returns a live URL at *.ml.ink. Here's a demo with Claude Code: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6ZM_RrIaC0.

What Ink does that I haven't seen elsewhere:

- One agent skill for compute + databases + DNS + secrets + domains + usage + metrics + logs + scaling. The agent doesn't juggle separate providers — one account, one auth, one set of tools.

- DNS zone delegation. Delegate a zone once (e.g. dev.acme.com) and agents create any subdomain instantly — no manual adding DNS records each time, no propagation wait.

- Multiple agents and humans share one workspace and collaborate on projects. I envision a future where many agents collaborate together. I'm working on a cool demo to share.

- Built-in git hosting. Agents push code and deploy without the human setting up GitHub first. No external account needed. (Of course if you're a developer you can store code on GitHub — that's the recommended pattern.)

You also have what you'd expect: - UI with service observability designed for humans (logs, metrics, DNS). - GitHub integration — push triggers auto-redeploy. - Per-minute billing for CPU, memory, and egress. No per-seat, no per-agent. - Error responses designed for LLMs. Structured reason codes with suggested next actions, not raw stack traces. When a deploy fails the agent reads the log, fixes it, and redeploys autonomously.
