# Deploy and Host VibeCheck with Railway

It's so tempting to vibe-code a thousand lines and ship them — but do you actually understand what you just merged? **VibeCheck makes sure _you_ understand what's going into _your_ codebase.** It drops a quick AI-generated quiz on every pull request, right in the comment thread; you answer inline, and a commit status reports the result — a human stays in the loop, no one gets slowed down.

## About Hosting VibeCheck

VibeCheck is a small self-hosted Node/TypeScript server that generates and grades the quizzes with your own Anthropic API key. This template deploys that server on Railway with a public URL and a health check. Your code never leaves your infrastructure — the GitHub Action sends only the PR diff to your server, and requests are authenticated with GitHub Actions OIDC (no shared secret to manage).

## Why Deploy VibeCheck on Railway

Railway gives VibeCheck a one-click deploy, an auto-provisioned public domain, and managed Docker builds — no servers to babysit. Set two variables, click deploy, and you have a working endpoint in about a minute.

## Common Use Cases

- Keep a human in the loop on AI-assisted pull requests
- Help engineers genuinely understand code before they merge it
- Add a lightweight, non-blocking code-understanding check to your review flow

## Dependencies for VibeCheck Hosting

- An Anthropic API key (with credits)
- A GitHub repository where you'll run the VibeCheck Action
