Instant public URL for your local dev server

Frontend reviews shouldn't require a staging pipeline. When you need a designer to see your in-progress UI or a client to approve a workflow, spinning up a staging deploy is overkill — and often breaks because production config doesn't match dev.

VibeControls tunnels solve this with a two-click flow: open the Tunnels panel, click "New Port Forward", pick your local port. VibeControls hands you a *.trycloudflare.com public URL over HTTPS. Share the link.

The designer opens it in any browser on any device and sees your actual live dev server — hot-reload, console errors, and all. No build step, no environment mismatch, no "why does it look different in staging?"

You can generate a public-access token with a 4-hour expiry for short review sessions, or keep the tunnel open for longer collaboration. When you're done, delete the tunnel from the dashboard and the URL goes dead. Clean, simple, reversible.

Do it yourself

Turn any local dev server into a secure, shareable HTTPS link with a self-expiring public access window, then kill the link the moment you're done.
