Show HN: InsForge – Open-source Heroku for coding agents

· ai-agents ai databases · Source ↗

TLDR

  • Self-hostable backend platform exposing Postgres, auth, storage, edge functions, and an OpenAI-compatible model gateway to coding agents via MCP or CLI.

Key Takeaways

  • Agents connect through an MCP Server (self-hosted or cloud) or a CLI+Skills interface, letting them read schemas, deploy edge functions, run migrations, and configure storage buckets.
  • Core primitives: Postgres, S3-compatible storage, user auth/sessions, serverless edge functions, OpenAI-compatible model gateway, long-running compute (private preview), and site deployment.
  • Self-host via Docker Compose in minutes; multiple isolated projects run on the same host using separate env files and port mappings.
  • One-click deployment supported on Railway, Zeabur, and Sealos; cloud-hosted option at insforge.dev.
  • Licensed Apache 2.0; MCP server exposes an fetch-docs tool agents call to bootstrap context about the platform.
