Deploy Your Claude Code App So Your Team Can Use It

You built it. It works on localhost. Now you want your team to actually use it — without making it public, without a 6-week IT ticket, and without rebuilding it from scratch in Retool.

This is the wall almost everyone hits after vibe coding something useful. Here's how to get past it in 30 seconds.

The problem with your current options

Vercel / Netlify — Great for public apps. The moment you try to restrict access to @yourcompany.com, you hit a wall: company SSO is an enterprise add-on that costs ~$320/month per project. That's the cost of protecting one HTML file from the public internet.

Railway / Render — Work fine for hosting, but they're public by default. Adding real company-email auth requires writing your own OAuth flow. That's a day of work, not a deployment step.

Retool / Power Apps — "Just use Retool" is what IT departments say. It means throwing away the code you already wrote and rebuilding from scratch in a drag-and-drop tool.

IT ticket — 3 to 8 weeks. The momentum dies. The tool never ships.

The fix: `workshop deploy`

Workshop is a CLI tool built specifically for this use case. One command, 30 seconds, company-gated URL.

Install

npm install -g @getworkshop/cli

First-time setup

workshop login

Initialize and deploy

cd your-claude-code-project
workshop init    # auto-detects your framework
workshop deploy  # builds, uploads, returns URL

When asked about access mode, choose company domain. The first person from @yourcompany.com to sign in claims the domain. Everyone with the same email domain gets automatic access from that point on.

Paste the URL in Slack. Done.
