PowerShell Upload Script

# Read the HTML file
$htmlContent = Get-Content "{full-path-to-html-file}" -Raw

# Build the request payload
$payload = @{
    html       = $htmlContent
    ttl        = "3d"
    fileName   = "{solution-name}-architecture.html"
    visibility = "private"
} | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 3

# Upload to PageDrop
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://pagedrop.io/api/upload" `
    -Method POST `
    -ContentType "application/json" `
    -Body $payload

# Output the response
$response | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 5

Extracting the URL

if ($response.success) {
    $url = $response.data.url
    Write-Output "Live at: $url"
} else {
    Write-Output "Upload failed: $($response.error.code) - $($response.error.message)"
}

Integration Pattern: Ask → Upload or Open Locally

When integrating into an agent workflow, follow this pattern after generating an HTML file:

1. Ask the User

Use the ask_user tool:

• Question: "Would you like a shareable link for this file? The link will be active for 3 days via PageDrop. Otherwise, I'll open it locally in your browser."
• Choices: ["Yes — generate a shareable link (active for 3 days)", "No — just open it locally"]

2a. If YES — Upload to PageDrop

$htmlContent = Get-Content "{path}" -Raw
$payload = @{ html = $htmlContent; ttl = "3d"; fileName = "{name}"; visibility = "private" } | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 3
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://pagedrop.io/api/upload" -Method POST -ContentType "application/json" -Body $payload

Present the result:

🔗 Your file is live for 3 days: {url}

Also open locally with Start-Process so the user has both options.

If upload fails, fall back to local open with an error note:

Upload failed — opened locally instead. Error: {error message}

2b. If NO — Open Locally

Start-Process "{full-path-to-html-file}"

Present the file path:

📂 File saved to: {full-path-to-html-file}

Constraints

• Max file size: 16 MB (HTML content in the html field)
• TTL options: 1h (1 hour), 1d (1 day), 3d (3 days), once (single view then deleted)
• Custom paths: 3–63 characters, lowercase letters/numbers/hyphens only, no leading/trailing hyphens
• Passwords: Max 128 characters
• Rate limiting: Applied per IP; retry with backoff if RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED
• Content policy: No malicious scripts, phishing, or illegal content — violations return CONTENT_BLOCKED
