# Smallcloud > Self-hosted platform that deploys static sites and Node.js apps to private, sandboxed, magic-link-protected HTTPS URLs in about a second. Agent-native (MCP), scale-to-zero, persistent per-app storage, share-by-link with roles. Free, runs on your own Linux server. Key facts: deploys in ~1–3s; cold starts ~400ms; apps have zero network egress, hard CPU/memory caps, and private quota'd /data volumes; no unauthenticated app URLs ever; AI agents deploy via a bundled MCP server (deploy/list/logs/delete tools). ## Docs - [Smallcloud changelog — what shipped and when](https://onsmallcloud.com/changelog.html): Release history for Smallcloud: the v1 deploy platform, v2 enterprise hardening and public docs, and v3 controlled egress, templates, and social cards. - [AI agents on Smallcloud — MCP server for Claude Code](https://onsmallcloud.com/docs/agents-mcp.html): Smallcloud ships an MCP server exposing deploy, list, logs, and delete as tools, so Claude Code and other AI agents can ship apps end to end. - [Deploying Node.js apps on Smallcloud](https://onsmallcloud.com/docs/deploy-node-app.html): How Smallcloud detects, builds, and sandboxes Node.js web apps: package.json requirements, the PORT and DATA_DIR environment, and what the sandbox allows. - [Persistence and the KV store on Smallcloud](https://onsmallcloud.com/docs/persistence-and-kv.html): Every Smallcloud app gets a private persistent volume with SQLite support and a built-in key-value store.
