# here.now

here.now gives Zo a fast publish-to-web path for files, folders, reports, dashboards, and static sites.

## Current docs

**Before answering questions about here.now capabilities, features, or workflows, read the current docs:**

→ **https://here.now/docs**

Read the docs:

- at the first here.now-related interaction in a conversation
- any time the user asks how to do something
- any time the user asks what is possible, supported, or recommended
- before telling the user a feature is unsupported

Topics that require current docs (do not rely on local skill text alone):

- custom domains
- payments and payment gating
- forking
- proxy routes and service variables
- handles and links
- limits and quotas
- SPA routing
- error handling and remediation
- feature availability

**If docs and live API behavior disagree, trust the live API behavior.**

If the docs fetch fails or times out, continue with the local skill and live API/script output. Prefer live API behavior for active operations.

## Requirements

- Required binaries: `curl`, `file`, `jq`
- Optional environment variable: `$HERENOW_API_KEY`
- Optional credentials file: `~/.herenow/credentials`

## Create a site

```bash
./scripts/publish.sh {file-or-dir} --client zo
```

Outputs the live URL (e.g. `https://bright-canvas-a7k2.here.now/`).

Under the hood this is a three-step flow: create/update -> upload files -> finalize. A site is not live until finalize succeeds.

Without an API key this creates an **anonymous site** that expires in 24 hours.
With a saved API key, the site is permanent.

**File structure:** For HTML sites, place `index.html` at the root of the directory you publish, not inside a subdirectory. The directory's contents become the site root. For example, publish `my-site/` where `my-site/index.html` exists — don't publish a parent folder that contains `my-site/`.

You can also publish raw files without any HTML. Single files get a rich auto-viewer (images, PDF, video, audio). Multiple files get an auto-generated directory listing with folder navigation and an image gallery.

## Update an existing site

```bash
./scripts/publish.sh {file-or-dir} --slug {slug} --client zo
```

The script auto-loads the `claimToken` from `.herenow/state.json` when updating anonymous sites. Pass `--claim-token {token}` to override.

Authenticated updates require a saved API key.

## Client attribution

Pass `--client zo` so here.now can track reliability by agent:

```bash
./scripts/publish.sh {file-or-dir} --client zo
```

This sends `X-HereNow-Client: zo/publish-sh` on publish API calls.
If omitted, the script sends a fallback value.

## API key storage

The publish script reads the API key from these sources (first match wins):

1. `--api-key {key}` flag (CI/scripting only — avoid in interactive use)
2. `$HERENOW_API_KEY` environment variable
3. `~/.herenow/credentials` file (recommended for agents)

To store a key, write it to the credentials file:

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.herenow && echo "{API_KEY}" > ~/.herenow/credentials && chmod 600 ~/.herenow/credentials
```

**IMPORTANT**: After receiving an API key, save it immediately — run the command above yourself. Do not ask the user to run it manually. Avoid passing the key via CLI flags (e.g. `--api-key`) in interactive sessions; the credentials file is the preferred storage method.

Never commit credentials or local state files (`~/.herenow/credentials`, `.herenow/state.json`) to source control.

## Getting an API key

To upgrade from anonymous (24h) to permanent sites:

1. Ask the user for their email address.
2. Request a one-time sign-in code:

```bash
curl -sS https://here.now/api/auth/agent/request-code \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-d '{"email": "user@example.com"}'
```

3. Tell the user: "Check your inbox for a sign-in code from here.now and paste it here."
4. Verify the code and get the API key:

```bash
curl -sS https://here.now/api/auth/agent/verify-code \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-d '{"email":"user@example.com","code":"ABCD-2345"}'
```

5. Save the returned `apiKey` yourself (do not ask the user to do this):

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.herenow && echo "{API_KEY}" > ~/.herenow/credentials && chmod 600 ~/.herenow/credentials
```

## State file

After every site create/update, the script writes to `.herenow/state.json` in the working directory:

```json
{
"publishes": {
"bright-canvas-a7k2": {
"siteUrl": "https://bright-canvas-a7k2.here.now/",
"claimToken": "abc123",
"claimUrl": "https://here.now/claim?slug=bright-canvas-a7k2&token=abc123",
"expiresAt": "2026-02-18T01:00:00.000Z"
}
}
}
```

Before creating or updating sites, you may check this file to find prior slugs.
Treat `.herenow/state.json` as internal cache only.
Never present this local file path as a URL, and never use it as source of truth for auth mode, expiry, or claim URL.

## What to tell the user

- Always share the `siteUrl` from the current script run.
- Read and follow `publish_result.*` lines from script stderr to determine auth mode.
- When `publish_result.auth_mode=authenticated`: tell the user the site is **permanent** and saved to their account. No claim URL is needed.
- When `publish_result.auth_mode=anonymous`: tell the user the site **expires in 24 hours**. Share the claim URL (if `publish_result.claim_url` is non-empty and starts with `https://`) so they can keep it permanently. Warn that claim tokens are only returned once and cannot be recovered.
- Never tell the user to inspect `.herenow/state.json` for claim URLs or auth status.

## Script options

| Flag | Description |
| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| `--slug {slug}` | Update an existing site instead of creating |
| `--claim-token {token}`| Override claim token for anonymous updates |
| `--title {text}` | Viewer title (non-HTML sites) |
| `--description {text}` | Viewer description |
| `--ttl {seconds}` | Set expiry (authenticated only) |
| `--client {name}` | Agent name for attribution (e.g. `zo`) |
| `--base-url {url}` | API base URL (default: `https://here.now`) |
| `--allow-nonherenow-base-url` | Allow sending auth to non-default `--base-url` |
| `--api-key {key}` | API key override (prefer credentials file) |
| `--spa` | Enable SPA routing (serve index.html for unknown paths) |
| `--forkable` | Allow others to fork this site |

## Beyond the script

For all other operations — delete, metadata, passwords, payments, domains, handles, links, variables, proxy routes, forking, duplication, and more — see the current docs:
