18 simple answers for publishing and reviewing HTML.
Clear answers about publishing, collaboration, agents, plans, and the practical details of keeping an HTML artifact useful.
01
Product
What is HTML Docs?
HTML Docs turns HTML, Markdown, documents, decks, and AI-generated artifacts into live pages that people can read, edit, comment on, version, and share. It is designed for the point between an agent creating useful work and a team approving or improving it.
How is HTML Docs different from static hosting?
Static hosting gives you a URL. HTML Docs adds a review and revision layer around the artifact: editable regions, anchored comments, version history, sharing controls, and agent-friendly ways to read and update the same page.
What can I create with HTML Docs?
Teams use HTML Docs for reports, plans, dashboards, client deliverables, prototypes, landing pages, course material, narrated explainers, and other structured artifacts that benefit from a polished browser-based presentation.
Do I need to know HTML?
No. You can import a document, paste content, use a creation flow, or ask Codex or Claude to produce and publish the page. HTML knowledge helps when you want direct control, but it is not required for reviewing or editing a page.
02
Publishing
How do I publish an existing HTML file?
Upload the file, paste the markup, import a URL, or publish from the terminal or API. HTML Docs creates a hosted page and keeps the content available for editing and review.
Can I update a page without changing its link?
Yes. You can revise the current artifact and publish a new version while keeping the same review link. This helps teams avoid stale attachments and “final-v3” file naming.
Can I use a custom domain?
Custom-domain availability depends on your plan. The publishing tools are designed to support both html-docs.com links and branded delivery when your plan includes it.
Does HTML Docs preserve interactive HTML?
HTML Docs preserves supported page structure, styling, and interactions while isolating imported content from the editor interface. Some unsafe or environment-specific behavior may be limited, so test important interactions after import.
03
Collaboration
Can reviewers comment without editing the page?
Yes. Sharing and collaboration permissions can separate viewing, commenting, and editing. That lets a client or teammate give precise feedback without changing the artifact directly.
Where do comments appear?
Comments can be attached to the relevant content region, so the discussion stays beside the paragraph, heading, table cell, or section it refers to instead of becoming a detached list in chat.
Does HTML Docs keep version history?
Yes. Versions provide clear decision points as a document changes. You can review how the artifact evolved and keep the current shared page tied to a known revision.
Can several people work on the same page?
Yes. HTML Docs supports collaborative region editing and shared review. The exact live-presence experience depends on the collaboration backend configured for the workspace.
04
Agents & API
Can Codex or Claude publish to HTML Docs?
Yes. The HTML Docs skill gives agents a workflow for creating, publishing, reading, commenting on, and revising artifacts. You keep working in the agent surface you already use.
What can the API do?
The API supports collaborative documents, comments, edits, versions, standalone videos, courses, and publishing workflows. It is useful when an agent, internal tool, or repeatable production process needs to manage artifacts programmatically.
Can an agent apply human feedback?
Yes. An agent can read the current artifact and its comments, revise the relevant regions, and publish an updated version. Anchored feedback gives the agent more precise context than a screenshot or a general chat summary.
05
Plans & security
Is there a free plan?
Yes. HTML Docs offers a free way to begin publishing and reviewing artifacts. Paid plans add higher limits and capabilities such as additional publishing, storage, domains, API access, or team features.
Is imported HTML treated as trusted code?
No. HTML from uploads, URLs, clipboards, users, and models should be treated as untrusted. HTML Docs uses isolation and product policies around rendering, and teams should still review the behavior of important imported pages before sharing them broadly.
Does HTML Docs support company workspaces?
Yes. Company and enterprise workflows can add a governed workspace, controlled external sharing, identity options, and an administration layer around the same document experience.
Still deciding how to use HTML Docs?
Start with one real artifact.
Publish the HTML you already have, share the review link, and see whether the feedback loop is better than the one you use today.
