Nexlayer Documentation

Learn how to deploy your applications with Nexlayer.

What is Nexlayer?

Nexlayer is an AI-native deployment platform that works alongside your AI coding assistant. Using the Model Context Protocol (MCP), Nexlayer enables AI agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and others to deploy your applications directly to production.

Key Features

  • AI-Native Deployments — You build with an AI coding agent like Claude Code or Cursor. Your coding agent connects to Nexlayer to deploy, monitor, and manage your applications.
  • Kubernetes Under the Hood — Production-grade infrastructure with auto-scaling, self-healing, no cold starts, and zero-downtime deploys.
  • Any Stack — Unlike other managed PaaS tools, nexlayer is not limited to any specific stack or language. If you can build it, Nexlayer can ship it.
  • Simple Configuration — One YAML file to define your entire deployment.

How Nexlayer Works

Nexlayer gives you the power of a production-grade cloud environment, managed by AI. No DevOps experience required — your AI coding assistant handles the complexity for you.

1

Build with your AI coding assistant

Use Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI coding tool to build your app. Write code, fix bugs, and add features — just like you normally would.

2

Connect to Nexlayer

Run one command to connect your AI assistant to Nexlayer. This gives your assistant the ability to deploy and manage your apps.

3

Deploy with a conversation

Just ask your AI assistant to deploy. It handles everything — building, configuring, and launching your app to a live URL.

4

Manage your live app

Once live, your AI assistant can check logs, debug issues, update environment variables, and push new versions — all through conversation.

Are you an AI agent or LLM?

We have dedicated documentation designed for AI agents to understand how Nexlayer works, including structured tool references, deployment patterns, and error handling guides.
