Bring to Local

Your own AI on your whole site. One file.

Bring to Local is WordPress hosting for AI coding agents. Click once to download one file, save it as CLAUDE.md in a folder on your computer and run claude or codex there. Your AI reads your site, backs files up first and asks before anything risky. It comes with every plan.

How it works

Hosting for AI coding agents: three steps, about two minutes.

The file handles the hard part. Just tell your AI what you need.

  1. Grab your file.

    Log in to your client area and hit the Bring to Local button. Your file downloads right away with your login already filled in. It holds your login, so keep it private like a password.

  2. Drop it in a folder.

    Save it in a folder on your own computer and rename it to CLAUDE.md. The file stays there. Your site stays hosted on EasWrk. It has your server credentials, SSH key setup, and every command your AI will need.

  3. Start talking to it.

    Open Claude Code in that folder and ask for what you want. "Create an email account." "Update all my plugins." "Add a DNS record." The file already taught your AI how to do all of it, and it asks before it does anything risky.

Works with the AI you pick

  • ClaudeRun claude in that folder.
  • CodexRun codex in that folder.
  • OpenAIPaste the file into ChatGPT.
  • Any terminalAny AI tool that reads project files.

Gemini CLI, Cursor and Windsurf work too. It's a plain markdown file. If your AI tool can read project context, it'll understand it.

Where the file lives

One file on your computer. Everything else stays hosted on EasWrk.

Your site, its files and your data are hosted on EasWrk and owned by you. The one thing on your own computer is the file. Your AI reads it, then works on your hosted site from there.

On your computer

  • ~/exampleA folder you made
  • CLAUDE.mdThe one file. It holds your login.
  • Your AIClaude, Codex, OpenAI or any terminal

  • Email, DNS and SSLManaged through your account
The file stays in the folder you chose. Your site does not move. The file holds your login, so keep it private like a password.

What's in the file

Everything your AI needs. All in one file.

Your server details are already filled in. It works the second you download it.

  • Server Credentials

    Your DirectAdmin login, SSH hostname, port, username, and password. Already filled in. You never have to look anything up.

  • SSH Key Setup

    Walk-through for generating and uploading an SSH key. After the first setup, your AI connects to the server without asking for a password.

  • WordPress and WP-CLI

    Every WP-CLI command your AI will reach for. Plugins, themes, users, database queries, search-replace, maintenance mode, and WooCommerce.

  • DirectAdmin API

    Every DA API endpoint with working examples. Email, DNS, databases, file manager, SSL, cron jobs, subdomains, backups. Copy-paste ready.

  • Email and DNS

    Commands for creating mailboxes, setting up forwarders, adding MX records, configuring SPF and DKIM, and managing your DNS. Ready to run.

  • Documentation Links

    Links to DirectAdmin docs, WP-CLI handbook, WooCommerce REST API, and LiteSpeed Cache docs. When your AI needs more detail, it knows where to look.

The file Bring to Local gives you. Your login is already filled in, so keep it private like a password.

Safety

It asks before it does anything risky.

You decide what your AI does and which AI you use. The quick start prompt below includes safety rules that tell your AI to:

  • Back up every file

    Before editing. If anything breaks, you can restore the original.

  • Read before writing

    The AI checks what exists before making changes.

  • Stay in your account

    The AI uses your DA permissions only. No root access, no other accounts.

  • Every action is logged

    DirectAdmin records all API calls and file changes on the server.

Treat the file like a password. It holds your login, so do not share it. Change your password later and you download a fresh copy from your dashboard.

WrkMate or Bring to Local

Same control. Two places to use it.

WrkMate lives in your browser, inside your EasWrk account. Bring to Local hands the same control to your own AI on your own computer. Both come with your plan.

About WrkMate

Quick start

Downloaded your file? Here's how to connect.

Open your AI tool

Go to the folder where you saved the file, then run one of these:

Paste this prompt to connect

Prompt

I have a hosting account for yourdomain.com managed through EasWrk (DirectAdmin). The CLAUDE.md file in this directory contains all the SSH credentials, server details, and DA API commands I need. Please read it and connect to my server. Start by listing the files in public_html to confirm the connection works, then tell me what you see on the site. IMPORTANT SAFETY RULE: Before editing or overwriting ANY file, you MUST create a backup copy first (e.g. cp filename.php filename.php.bak). This applies to every file: PHP, HTML, CSS, .htaccess, wp-config.php, theme files, plugin files, everything. Never skip this step. If something goes wrong, I need to be able to restore the original.

Things you can ask

  • Email"Create an email account hello@example.com"
  • WordPress"Update all my plugins and check for issues"
  • DNS"Add an A record pointing blog to 203.0.113.10"
  • Files"Show me the error log and fix any PHP warnings"
  • SSL"Set up SSL for my domain"
  • WooCommerce"Put all products on sale for 20% off"
  • Pages"Update the text on my sale page"
  • Backup"Create a full backup of my site"
  • Database"Run a search-replace to fix old URLs"

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Does EasWrk work as hosting for Claude Code and Codex?

Yes. Both run on your own computer and work on your hosted EasWrk site through the file. Start with Claude Code on your WordPress hosting account or Codex on your hosting account. Both are included with every hosting plan.

Can I use my own AI on my hosting account?

Yes. You choose the model and you hold the key. Bring to Local gives your AI one file that describes your account. EasWrk also has WrkMate, its own AI, inside your account in the browser.

Is this the same as a WordPress MCP server?

No. Bring to Local does not run an MCP server. It gives your AI one file with your server details, SSH key setup, WP-CLI commands and the DirectAdmin API, so it can connect and work on your account directly.

What can I do with Bring to Local?

Everyday hosting jobs. Create email accounts, update WordPress plugins, manage DNS, edit pages, set up SSL, run database queries, add cron jobs and check error logs. The file tells your AI how to do each one.

Is Bring to Local safe?

The file holds your login, so keep it private like a password and do not share it. You decide what your AI does and which AI you use. The quick start prompt tells the AI to back a file up before editing it. DirectAdmin records API calls and file changes on the server.

How is Bring to Local different from WrkMate?

WrkMate lives in your browser, inside your EasWrk account. Bring to Local hands the same control to your own AI on your own computer. You choose the model, you hold the key, and your site stays hosted on EasWrk. Both come with your plan.

Do I need technical knowledge to use Bring to Local?

Not at all. You type what you want in plain English. The AI reads the file and figures out the SSH connections, API calls, and commands on its own. Something like "Create an email for sales@example.com" is all you need to say.

Does Bring to Local cost extra?

No. It comes with every EasWrk hosting plan. The download button shows up on your product page as soon as your account is active. See pricing.

What is a CLAUDE.md file?

It is a markdown file that gives your AI context about a project. Put it in a folder, open Claude Code there, and Claude Code reads it automatically. It picks up your hosting environment, your login and the commands it can run.

Can I use Bring to Local with ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. It is a plain markdown file. Paste it into ChatGPT, load it as context in Cursor, or give it to any AI tool that reads project files. Claude Code reads it from the folder. For Codex, see Codex on your hosting account.

What if I change my hosting password?

Download a fresh copy from your dashboard. It is generated on demand with your current login. If you set up an SSH key, which the file walks you through, you will not need the password at all.

Does my AI get root access to the server?

No. Your AI logs in with the same DirectAdmin account you use. It can manage your files, databases, email and DNS, but it cannot touch other accounts, change server settings or run system-level commands. It has the same permissions you already have.

Your own AI on your site from day one.

Bring to Local comes with every EasWrk plan. Plans start at $45 a month and the first month is free. See pricing or the hosting plans.
