Publish without an account
Run fl --anon to put a folder online with no signup, then claim it to keep it.
You can now publish with fl --anon ./folder and no account. You get a live link straight away, and a claim link to keep the site. Handy for trying Flowershow, and for AI agents that can't log in for you. See Publish without an account.
- Live in seconds: the site gets a random
…-anon.flowershow.meURL. - Claim it to keep it: anonymous sites expire after 7 days. Open the claim link, sign in or sign up, and confirm to move the site into your account. After that, publishing the same folder while logged in (from the machine that published it, which keeps its link in
.flowershow) updates your claimed site. - Re-run to update: running
fl --anonon the same folder updates the same URL. - Limits: 200 files and 50 MB per site.
Also
- Set
FLOWERSHOW_TOKENto a personal access token to useflwithoutfl login, for CI and cloud agents. See Environment token. - Agents using the updated Flowershow skill can offer
--anonwhen you just want a link now.
Fixes
- Expired anonymous sites stop being served immediately, not only after cleanup.
- Anonymous sites are marked
noindex, so search engines don't index them.
Requires fl 2.5.0 or later. Upgrade with the steps in Upgrade.
