# Fork

Fork is an AI-powered platform for building web apps through conversation.

## Agent access over SSH

Fork apps can be inspected and edited through the public SSH gateway:

    ssh fork.me

Agent-specific, authentication-free help is available with:

    ssh fork.me help

On the first connection made with a new SSH public key, ask the human user to
open https://fork.me/auth and provide the one-time `fk_...` API token. Fork
binds the proved key fingerprint to that user. Never request infrastructure
SSH keys, server passwords, or root credentials.

After that one-time binding, every command works without a token, including in
BatchMode:

    ssh -o BatchMode=yes fork.me "apps list --json"
    ssh -o BatchMode=yes fork.me cat /README.md

Read `/README.md` and then `/<app-slug>/README.md` before editing. Changes made
through fork-ssh are saved to the user's Fork account immediately. Use `app
check`, `app push`, and `app publish` for validation, versioning, and release.
