Let Claude Code do the publishing

If Claude Code is already open on your machine, you never need to visit the dashboard. The skill knows how.

Install once

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/shiplock && curl -fsSL https://shiplock.app/skill.md -o ~/.claude/skills/shiplock/SKILL.md

Then talk normally

• "Make a sign-up sheet for the street party and put it online." Claude writes the app, publishes it, and tells you the links.
• "Give my wife an edit link and the neighbours an add-only link."
• "Add a column for allergies." It publishes a new version; the links stay the same.
• "Share the calendar with grandma@example.com." She types her email once and is in on every device.

Keys

The first time, Claude gets itself a 7-day trial key with no sign-up: three apps, no uploads. Say "claim it with my email" and a sign-in link arrives; opening it makes your account, moves the apps into it, and starts your 30 free days of Plus. From then on, Claude uses a token from your dashboard under Agents & tokens.
