Set Up the Drop Link Skill in Claude Code (Step by Step)
Claude Code can publish workspace files as rendered preview links when you install the Drop Link plugin. This guide walks through plugin install, token setup, upload, and revoke—so your agent can share docs without leaving the terminal.
For the same workflow in Cursor, see How to Integrate DropLink as a Custom Skill in Cursor. Install paths and Skill docs also live on the Agent access section of the Drop Link homepage.
Install the Claude Code plugin
Option A — plugin registry (after publish):
- In Claude Code, run
/pluginand search for droplink-share. - Install the plugin and restart your session if prompted.
Option B — monorepo or built plugin path:
Build platform packages (optional if you reference the monorepo Skill directly):
bashpnpm --filter @droplink/droplink-skills build:platformsPoint Claude Code at one of these paths:
textgithub.com/fenfenxu/droplink/tree/main/packages/droplink-skills/dist/claude-code-pluginOr the source Skill directory:
textgithub.com/fenfenxu/droplink/tree/main/packages/droplink-skills/droplink-shareReload Claude Code so the plugin and Skills are picked up.
Configure DROPLINK_ACCESS_TOKEN
Create a free account at droplink.cloud/signup, then generate an access token from your dashboard.
Set the token in your environment before asking Claude Code to upload:
export DROPLINK_ACCESS_TOKEN="dlk_your_token_here"For local development, copy packages/droplink-skills/.env.example to .env and set DROPLINK_SUPABASE_URL, DROPLINK_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY, and DROPLINK_ACCESS_TOKEN. The Skill uses this token to upload on your behalf and to revoke links you created.
Upload a file and share the link
Ask Claude Code to publish a document from your workspace:
Upload docs/handoff.md with droplink-share and return the public share URL.The agent uploads the file, renders it as a web page, and returns a link you can paste into any session:
Review the handoff at https://www.droplink.cloud/s/handoff-v2Teammates and other agents can open the URL without cloning your repository.
Revoke a share link
When a link should no longer be public, use the droplink-revoke Skill:
Revoke https://www.droplink.cloud/s/handoff-v2 — I no longer need this share live.Or run the CLI directly:
pnpm --filter @droplink/droplink-skills revoke-share https://www.droplink.cloud/s/handoff-v2Revocation requires the same account that created the link. For visibility rules before you upload, see What's the Difference Between Public and Private Share Links?.
Claude Code vs manual upload
| Workflow | Best approach |
|---|---|
| One-off share from the browser | Upload on the homepage |
| Repeated uploads during a coding session | droplink-share plugin |
| Unpublish after a client review | droplink-revoke Skill |
Install both Skills from the Agent access section to keep upload and revoke in the same Claude Code session.
