# How to Deploy Your Claude Code Agent

> The easiest way to deploy Claude Code agents. You build the agent. We handle the deploy, the tools, and the infra.

DataGen is a deployment platform for Claude Code agents. No Agent SDK required.

## Who Is This For?
Developers who have built a Claude Code agent and want to:
- Deploy Claude Code agents to production
- Run agents on a schedule (cron)
- Trigger agents via webhook
- Give agents access to external tools (Gmail, Slack, Linear, etc.)
- Deploy without learning an Agent SDK

## How to Deploy a Claude Code Agent

### Step 1: Create Your Agent in Claude Code
Build your agent the way you already do - in your terminal or IDE. No special format required.

```bash
claude
> /agents
Create an agent that summarizes my meetings and posts to Slack
```

### Step 2: Push to GitHub
Push your Claude Code agent to a GitHub repo. DataGen works with any agent file.

### Step 3: Install the DataGen GitHub App
One-click install on your repo. No config files, no SDK dependencies.

### Step 4: Deploy Your Agent
DataGen auto-discovers your agent. Click deploy to get:
- A webhook URL for on-demand triggers
- A cron schedule for recurring runs
- Pre-connected MCP tools (50+ services with OAuth)

## Why Use DataGen for Claude Code Agent Deployment?
- **No Agent SDK needed** - your Claude Code agent works as-is
- **MCP tools pre-connected** - Gmail, Slack, Linear, Notion, Supabase, and 50+ more
- **Webhook + cron built-in** - trigger your agent however you want
- **Local-to-production parity** - tools you use locally work when deployed
- **OAuth handled automatically** - no token refresh headaches

## Quick Start: Connect MCP Tools to Claude Code
Before deploying, you can use DataGen MCP locally in Claude Code:

```bash
curl -fsSL https://cli.datagen.dev/install.sh | sh
datagen login
datagen mcp
```

Or add directly:
```bash
claude mcp add --transport http datagen https://mcp.datagen.dev/mcp --header "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"
```
