Charming docs
Charming is a hosting platform for personal software for you and your AI agent.
I’m new here
If you haven’t built anything yet, start with How Charming works.
To build your first app, paste this into your agent:
Read https://charm.ing/docs/prompts/build-your-first-app.md then help me create my first app.See Prompts for agents for prompts you can copy to build, use, or design an app.
What can my app do?
Every Charming app can:
- Store data and files
- Use a stable name and URL
- Find apps again
- Share with roles
- Call services with secrets
- Work from any AI agent, automatically over MCP
- Export source
- Enable Template copies or publish a Listed Template in the public Template directory
- Collect feedback and ship fixes
- Use a custom domain
- Show images from another site
- Use a small JavaScript library
- Stay in sync with its AI agent
Charming for Work
Charming for Work adds company access, audit history, and data controls to regular Charming apps.
Look something up
Your connected agent can read these docs through Charming’s read_docs tool, even without browser access. It can open the index, choose a page, and read the guidance before working on your app. See Read docs through MCP.
See Limits for current caps and rates.
To build without MCP, see Build over the HTTP API.
The agent-facing build manual and reference material live at these URLs:
- Full build reference
- MCP starter guide
- HTTP starter guide
- Prompts for agents
- Technical reference
- Browser runtime API
- External files and CSP
- JavaScript modules and libraries
- REST API reference and OpenAPI JSON
- AI client setup guides
- Client setup strings
For setup, choose your client under AI clients.
