Ask Codex for the app and the deployment
Start with the result you want: a new focused app, or the project already in the workspace, running on Saasie. The starter prompt tells Codex which agent instructions to read before it edits.

CODEX APP HOSTING
Deploy apps built with OpenAI Codex.
Codex can build the feature, prepare the project for production and put it online in the same task. Saasie is the small, agent-readable hosting layer that turns its code into a running app and a URL.

FROM TASK TO LIVE APP
The deploy belongs
in the task.
Codex already has the context needed to make the project deployable. Keep hosting in the same task and it can test the real build, fix deployment-shaped failures and return the final address.
Give it the one-time login code
Codex installs the Saasie CLI and sends a code to your email address. Paste the code into the task and Codex can create the app, its repository and its database on your behalf.
Let Codex verify what it shipped
A push starts the build. Codex follows the build log, checks the health endpoint and visits the public URL. The task is done when the deployed app works, not when a local preview happens to load.
LOCAL OR CLOUD
Give Codex the network its task needs.
A local Codex session normally uses your computer and its network. If it can run shell commands in the project, it has the two basic capabilities a Saasie deployment needs.
Codex cloud environments block internet access during the agent phase by default. Enable it for the environment and keep the allowlist narrow: saasie.io, api.saasie.io and *.saasie.app over HTTPS are enough when Git also travels over port 443.
CODEX APP HOSTING FAQ
The short answers.
- Can Codex deploy an app after building it?
- Yes. Codex can run the Saasie CLI, change the project, push the finished source and verify the hosted result when its environment allows shell commands and network access.
- Why can a Codex cloud task build but not deploy?
- Cloud agent internet access is off by default. That protects the codebase, but it also blocks every external hosting service until you enable the permission for that environment.
- Do I need to move my project into a special framework?
- No. Codex keeps the project's existing language and framework. Saasie asks for a production container, a health endpoint and a short blueprint rather than a particular application stack.
