What problem does it solve? Sharing a local dev server, webhook receiver, or MCP endpoint with the outside world normally requires installing tunnel daemons like ngrok or cloudflared. This Skill creates public HTTP/HTTPS URLs for any local port using only the stock SSH client, with no installation or signup required. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Zero-Install Tunnels: Connects to a.pinggy.io over SSH on port 443 and returns a public pinggy.link URL for any local port. - Access Control: Gates tunnels with HTTP Basic auth, bearer tokens, or IP whitelists via username keywords, plus CORS and HTTPS-redirect flags. - Ready-Made Recipes: Includes patterns for receiving webhook callbacks, exposing MCP servers over HTTP, sharing local LLM endpoints (Ollama/vLLM), and one-shot password-protected dev server sharing. - Use Case: You need Stripe to POST a webhook to your laptop during local testing. The Skill starts a capture server on port 18080, opens a token-gated Pinggy tunnel, parses the public URL from the log, and hands it back for the Stripe dashboard. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to expose local port 8000 to the internet with a Pinggy tunnel and give you the public URL.
