# Deploy a static site from the CLI

**Direct answer:** The Demox CLI publishes a local folder to a public HTTPS URL. Install with npm install -g @demox-site/cli@latest. Run demox login, then demox deploy ./dist. The folder or ZIP must contain index.html at the root. You can also deploy a single HTML file, a PDF, or a Markdown file. Version 1.1.6 and later include functions, env, and alias commands for Node handlers. The npm package is @demox-site/cli. This path is for terminals and CI. MCP is the path for AI agents.

## How to do it

1. **Step 1.** npm install -g @demox-site/cli@latest
2. **Step 2.** demox login
3. **Step 3.** demox deploy ./dist
4. **Step 4.** Copy the HTTPS URL from the command output.
