GitHub Sync

An optional backup and full history of your project on GitHub.


Do You Need It?

No. Manifest publishes, hosts, and keeps versions without it. GitHub helps if you want a backup of your working files, a history of every change, smoother teamwork when several people edit often, or hosting somewhere else.

It needs a Code session and a free GitHub account. Claude sets up the rest, including GitHub's gh tool the first time.


Save to GitHub

Save my project to GitHub

A GitHub sign-in opens in your browser, then Claude creates a private copy only you and people you add can see. From then on, publishing also saves to GitHub, and /manifest:sync brings in other people's changes.


Add a Teammate

Add sam to the project on GitHub

Claude asks for their GitHub username and email, and invites them to both GitHub and the Manifest project (a Pro feature). They accept both, start a new Code session, and ask Claude to join the Manifest project.


Host Somewhere Else

Host this project on Netlify instead

Claude connects Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, or Appwrite Sites to your GitHub copy, and the current version stays online until the new host is ready. To come back, ask Claude to move this back to Manifest hosting.
