From zero to a live app.

BossLabs Launch runs inside Claude Code. You connect one server, then deploy real apps by describing what you want. No Vercel, Neon, or GitHub accounts — we own the infrastructure.

01Connect the MCP server

In your terminal, add the BossLabs server to Claude Code. Run this once — Claude Code remembers it.

$claude mcp add --transport http --scope user bosslabs https://launch.bosslabs.app/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Replace YOUR_TOKEN with the access token from the next step.

02Get your access token

Your token identifies you to the platform so your apps stay yours. Grab it from the connect page:

Open the connect page →

Keep it private — anyone with your token can manage your apps.

03Launch your first app

Open any project in Claude Code and say the sentence. Pick a slug — that's the subdomain.

you ❯Launch this as myfirstapp

Claude Code reserves the slug, uploads your code, and provisions everything. In 60–120 seconds you'll get:

✅ Live: https://myfirstapp.bosslabs.app

Open it in a browser — real deployment, real database, HTTPS included.

04Manage it — all by asking

Everything after launch is a sentence too. A few things you can say:

you ❯Add env STRIPE_KEY=sk_live_… to myfirstapp, then redeploy
you ❯Show me the logs for myfirstapp
you ❯Destroy myfirstapp

Under the hood, these map to the tools BossLabs exposes:

launch_app / start_launchReserve a slug and ship it live.
app_statusSee your apps, their URLs, and states.
set_envAdd a secret — encrypted, never echoed back.
redeploy_appShip a new version; the old one serves until it's green.
app_logsTail logs inline, with credentials redacted.
destroy_appTear down the app, its database, and its repo.

05Troubleshooting

“Slug already taken.” Someone (maybe you) has that name. Claude Code will suggest a few alternatives — pick one.
A build failed. Your previous version keeps serving. Fix the error in your project and just say “launch” again.
“Upload not received.” The tar upload hasn't landed yet — let Claude Code finish uploading, then retry the launch.
