BotCreds Agent Artifacts gives AI agents a permanent home for their outputs.

Post a single HTML file to the REST API. The plugin parses it, extracts scripts and styles, saves them as static files, enqueues them properly via WordPress APIs, and serves the result at a clean public URL with strict security headers. No build tools. No infrastructure. One API call.

How It Works

  1. POST raw HTML to /wp-json/wp/v2/artifacts
  2. The plugin extracts <script> and <style> blocks and saves them as static files in wp-content/uploads/artifacts/{id}/
  3. JS and CSS are enqueued via wp_enqueue_script() / wp_enqueue_style() — no inline scripts in rendered output
  4. The HTML body is sanitized with wp_kses() and an expanded allowed-tags list (canvas, SVG, inputs, video, audio, data-* attributes)
  5. The artifact is served at yourdomain.com/artifacts/{slug}/ with a strict Content Security Policy

From the caller’s perspective: POST HTML, get URL. Everything else happens server-side.

Features

Deployment

  • Single REST API call — no SDK, no library, any HTTP client works
  • Update artifacts in place — POST to /wp-json/wp/v2/artifacts/{id} and the public URL stays the same
  • Optional artifact_description field for internal documentation
  • Head content preservation — <meta> tags and other <head> elements from submitted HTML are preserved in output
  • External script support — <script src="..."> tags are registered as external dependencies and enqueued alongside local assets
  • Asset cache busting — enqueued files are versioned with filemtime() so browsers fetch updates automatically
  • Clean redeploys — old asset files are deleted before new ones are written

Security

  • Content Security Policy on every artifact page — blocks external script injection and cross-origin data exfiltration by default
  • Trusted CDN list out of the box: cdn.jsdelivr.net, unpkg.com, cdnjs.cloudflare.com, esm.sh, cdn.skypack.dev — scripts and styles load from these without any configuration
  • Per-artifact API allowlist — artifacts that call external APIs declare their origins via an HTML pragma comment (<!-- artifact:fetch https://api.example.com -->) or a deploy-time meta field; the plugin adds them to connect-src automatically
  • Additional security headers: X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy
  • Custom capability type — artifact capabilities are separate from standard post capabilities; only Administrators can create artifacts by default

Developer Hooks

  • botcreds_agent_artifacts_csp — filter the full CSP header value for any artifact
  • botcreds_agent_artifacts_allowed_html — filter the wp_kses allowed-tags array
  • botcreds_agent_artifacts_grant_to_role() — helper to grant capabilities to additional roles
  • Custom template — drop single-artifact.php in your active theme to replace the render template

Use Cases

OpenClaw (AI personal assistant)

OpenClaw agents can deploy interactive dashboards, daily digests, data visualizations, and mini-apps in a single tool call. Generate the HTML, POST it, get the URL — no manual steps, no context switching.

For artifacts that fetch live data, add a pragma comment to the HTML and the CSP is updated automatically:

<!-- artifact:fetch https://api.openweathermap.org -->

For recurring reports (daily digests, weekly summaries), store the artifact ID after the first deploy and update in place on subsequent runs. The URL never changes.

Claude Code (terminal-based coding agent)

Claude Code sessions can invoke a shell deploy script directly after generating output. Add a scripts/deploy-artifact.sh to your project and reference it in your CLAUDE.md — Claude will use it to ship outputs without leaving the terminal. No manual copy-paste, no browser switching.

Codex (OpenAI coding agent)

Same pattern as Claude Code. Add deployment instructions to your AGENTS.md and Codex can write HTML, call the deploy script, and report the live URL — all in one agent run.

GitHub Actions (versioned project)

For projects that build a static HTML output — dashboards, reports, documentation, changelogs — a GitHub Actions workflow can deploy to an artifact on every push to main. The artifact ID is stored as a repository variable so the public URL stays stable across all future deploys. Push build deploy done.

Example: Deploy via REST API

curl -X POST "https://your-site.com/wp-json/wp/v2/artifacts" \
  -u "username:application-password" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "title": "My App",
    "status": "publish",
    "meta": {
      "artifact_html": "<!DOCTYPE html><html><body><h1>Hello.</h1></body></html>",
      "artifact_description": "Built by my AI agent"
    }
  }'

The response link field is the public URL of the deployed artifact.

Example: Artifact with Live Data

Include the fetch pragma in your HTML — no configuration needed:

<!-- artifact:fetch https://api.openweathermap.org -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
  <div id="weather"></div>
  <script>
    fetch('https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=Denver&appid=YOUR_KEY')
      .then(r => r.json())
      .then(d => document.getElementById('weather').textContent = d.weather[0].description);
  </script>
</body>
</html>

Example: GitHub Actions Deployment

name: Deploy Artifact
on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - run: npm ci && npm run build
      - name: Deploy to Artifact
        env:
          WP_SITE: ${{ secrets.ARTIFACT_WP_SITE }}
          WP_USER: ${{ secrets.ARTIFACT_WP_USER }}
          WP_PASS: ${{ secrets.ARTIFACT_WP_PASS }}
          ARTIFACT_ID: ${{ vars.ARTIFACT_ID }}
        run: |
          PAYLOAD=$(jq -n --arg title "My Dashboard" --rawfile html dist/index.html \
            '{title: $title, status: "publish", meta: {artifact_html: $html}}')
          ENDPOINT="$WP_SITE/wp-json/wp/v2/artifacts"
          [ -n "$ARTIFACT_ID" ] && ENDPOINT="$ENDPOINT/$ARTIFACT_ID"
          curl -sf -X POST "$ENDPOINT" -u "$WP_USER:$WP_PASS" \
            -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "$PAYLOAD" | jq -r '.link'
