portless

Replace port numbers with stable named localhost URLs

Replaces hard-to-remember port numbers with stable, named .localhost URLs for local development servers. Eliminates port conflicts, stale browser tabs, cookie clashes, and broken OAuth redirect URIs across projects and monorepos. Auto-starts an HTTPS proxy, assigns ports, and injects framework flags so developers and AI agents always reach the right app.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema
How to install portless?โ–ผ

Run `npx skills add vercel-labs/portless --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills in this suite globally.

What problem does portless solve?โ–ผ

It replaces numeric localhost ports with stable named URLs like https://myapp.localhost, ending port conflicts, wrong-app tabs, and cookie clashes between projects.

How do I fix OAuth redirect_uri_mismatch errors locally?โ–ผ

Start the proxy with a valid TLD using `portless proxy start --tld dev`, then register the resulting https URL as the redirect URI in your provider console.

Does portless work with AI coding agents?โ–ผ

Yes. It ships SKILL.md files so agents in Claude Code, Cursor, and similar tools always use the correct named URL instead of guessing ports.

Does portless support monorepos and git worktrees?โ–ผ

Yes. One config file covers all workspace packages, and each git worktree automatically gets its own branch-based subdomain.
