onetimehtml - Expiring links for AI HTML and Markdown

by
AI tools generate one-shot artifacts all the time — dashboards, reports, HTML mockups, Markdown docs — but there's no clean way to share them. Gist is too permanent. Hosting is overkill. Pasting raw HTML in chat is ugly. onetimehtml is the in-between. Paste content or POST to /api/share, set how it should die: by time (1h–30d), by view count, optionally behind a password. HTML renders sandboxed with strict CSP — what you share can't read cookies or escape. Free, no account.

AI tools have gotten really good at generating one-off artifacts — a quick dashboard, a styled report, an HTML mockup, a Markdown doc to send a teammate. But sharing them is annoying. Pasting raw HTML in chat is ugly. Saving a file means the receiver opens it locally. Hosting it forever feels wrong for something meant to be read once. onetimehtml is the in-between. Paste content (or POST /api/share from an agent), get a link, set when it should die — by time (1h to 30d), by view count (one-time to capped), optionally behind a password. The HTML renders in a sandboxed iframe with strict CSP, so what you share can't read cookies or break out of the frame. A few things I'd love feedback on: - Does the "ephemeral artifact" framing land, or should I just call it a pastebin for AI HTML? - Which integration would you want first — CLI, Raycast, browser extension, VS Code? - What would you need security-wise before using this for real work? Thanks for poking at it.
