SideButton
What This Is
SideButton.com is the public marketing website and Fleet Control portal for the SideButton AI Agent Platform. Built with Astro, it serves as the product homepage, skills directory (/skills), publishing guide (/create-agentic-ai-skill, formerly /contribute), news page (/media), and authenticated Fleet Control portal (/portal/*). The site targets developers and engineering teams looking to deploy self-learning AI agents. As of the April 2026 redesign the site is heavily simplified: the old pricing page, feature pages, solutions page, interactive demo, and integrations marketplace have all been removed. The product positioning is now "Open source MCP server for AI agents". Portal auth migrated to Auth0 Universal Login.
Authentication
Major change (April 2026): Migrated from email-only custom login to Auth0 Universal Login at sidebutton.eu.auth0.com/u/login.
- Public pages (no auth):
/,/skills,/skills/*,/create-agentic-ai-skill,/media,/privacy,/terms,/content-policy,/imprint - Portal pages (
/portal/*): Auth0-gated. Unauthenticated requests 302-redirect to/portal/login→ 302 → Auth0. /login: 308-redirect to/portal/login/connect: 308-redirect to/(page removed — old extension auth flow replaced)
