Adds deepnote streamlit publish <entrypoint>, a CLI command that serves a Python file already stored in a Deepnote project's Files as a Streamlit app, and keeps deepnote publish <dir> for uploading a local build directory only. A reviewer asked for two commands because the two flows differ: Streamlit publishing registers an existing project file and uploads nothing, while publish uploads local files. With separate commands, no positional argument changes meaning with a flag, and the streamlit group sits next to the existing static-site group, ready for more subcommands later.

deepnote streamlit publish apps/dashboard.py --project-id <uuid>

What is inside

  • New command deepnote streamlit publish <entrypoint> (packages/cli/src/cli.ts, packages/cli/src/commands/streamlit-publish.ts). Options: --project-id, --url, --token, --no-wait. The entrypoint is a project-relative path; the CLI normalizes it and rejects unsafe paths with exit code 2 before any request. A missing token also exits 2.
  • Publish flow (packages/cli/src/utils/publish-streamlit-app.ts). Creates the app, prints its URL, warns that creating an app restarts the project machine, then waits up to 10 minutes for the app to report running. If the server answers that an app already exists for the file, the CLI looks it up, reports it without restarting anything, and waits for it too. --no-wait returns right after the URL. A wait that times out or a failed status check exits 1 and keeps the URL on screen. A missing entrypoint file gets a hint to upload it in Deepnote or push it with deepnote sync --all-files alongside a notebook push. Ctrl+C interrupts the wait.
  • @deepnote/cloud client (packages/cloud/src/streamlit-apps.ts). Adds createStreamlitApp, listStreamlitApps, getStreamlitAppStatus, waitForStreamlitApp, StreamlitAppTimeoutError and their types. The poller checks the deadline before every request, treats unavailable as non-terminal because the status passes through it while the machine restarts, and retries transient failures with capped backoff, mirroring pollRunUntilComplete.
  • deepnote publish <dir> and deepnote static-site access keep their behaviour. Their help and output now say "app" instead of "static site" or "static website", and publish --help points to deepnote streamlit publish for Python files. The viewer-token note now says that the token can start runs in other projects of the same workspace where the viewer has direct access, and that such runs also require execute permission.
  • Documentation in docs/deepnote-cli-publish.md, packages/cli/README.md, packages/cloud/README.md, skills/deepnote/SKILL.md and skills/deepnote/references/{apps,cli-publish}.md. One section per command; "app" means HTML, CSS and JavaScript hosted by Deepnote, "Streamlit app" means a Python UI running on project hardware. The pages document the restart on creation, the wait, the sync caveat, the entrypoint-deletion behaviour and the viewer-token limits.
  • Tests: packages/cli/src/commands/streamlit-publish.test.ts drives the new command end to end through the CLI, including the existing-app paths through the real poller; packages/cloud/src/streamlit-apps.test.ts covers the client and the poller.

Publishing behaviour to know

  • Streamlit publishing registers an existing project file; it does not upload local files. Upload the entrypoint and its dependencies first.
  • Creating a Streamlit app restarts the project machine and interrupts active work.
  • Deleting an entrypoint can remove its app registration, though some UI-created Streamlit apps currently retain it. File sync replaces changed files by deleting and uploading them, so publish again after syncing an edited entrypoint and use the returned URL, which may change. Sync uploads working files alongside a notebook push; for a Python-only edit, upload in Deepnote.
  • Streamlit publishing leaves app settings and sync state unchanged.
  • Hosted Streamlit viewer API calls require the owner's API-access opt-in and a signed-in viewer with direct project access. Streamlit viewer tokens are limited to the hosting project.

How it was tested

  • pnpm test: 3,344 tests in 184 files pass, including the 21 streamlit publish tests and the existing-app regressions that run the real status poller for restart recovery and timeout.
  • pnpm typecheck, pnpm build, pnpm lintAndFormat (8 pre-existing Biome warnings, none new), pnpm spell-check.
  • Every heading link in the touched README, docs pages and skill references resolves.
  • Built CLI help checked for publish, static-site access, streamlit and streamlit publish. publish --streamlit is rejected as an unknown option; a missing token or an invalid entrypoint exits 2 before any request.
  • The built CLI was run against a local stub of the Deepnote API for create, existing app, --no-wait, timeout and missing-file flows; messages match the previous publish --streamlit build except the reworded sync hint.
  • Ctrl+C while "Waiting for the app to start…" is spinning ends the command at once, checked in a pseudo-terminal against the stub API.
  • Live on staging (https://api.deepnote-staging.com, built CLI at e50616d, real project and API token):
    • Publishing a new app.py created the app, printed the restart warning and URL, and waited through unavailable → starting → running (69 s, exit 0). The returned URL serves the working Streamlit app.
    • Publishing the same file again, as app.py, ./app.py or /app.py, reported the existing app without changes; the project still lists one app.
    • --no-wait on a second file exited after 1 s while the app was still unavailable.
    • A file missing from the project, a wrong token and an unknown project each exit 1 with the expected message; an unsafe path or a missing token exits 2 before any request.
    • In a terminal, the spinner ends with "App is running".

Validated locally with Node.js 22.22.2 and pnpm 10.19.0.

Two review fixes:

1. pushLocalNotebook now passes the pre-computed plan to syncNotebookContent
   instead of letting it re-plan. This ensures the applied changes match what
   the user approved and avoids duplicate API reads.

2. A remote-only integration (local spec has no integrationId) is no longer
   flagged as "integration changed" on every push — the PATCH cannot clear it
   anyway, so the comparison now requires the local spec to explicitly define
   a different integrationId before triggering an update.

…ssing or re-fetches fail

result.success now reflects commandSucceeded (execution + artifact delivery),
not raw run status. A successful run with no snapshot exits 1 instead of
silently reporting success. When all snapshot re-fetch attempts fail (e.g. API
outage), the last error is thrown so the CLI reports artifactStatus: unavailable
rather than not_produced.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
When a known no-op run has re-fetch failures, the no-op snapshot synthesis
should still produce a valid result. Move the lastRetryError throw to after
the synthesis check so it only fires when content remains null.

…efault

serveStatic exposed two run routes, POST /api/run for a local kernel and POST
/api/run-cloud for Deepnote, so every app built on it needed two buttons, two
response shapes to render, and a decision from the user about where a run
should happen before anything could run at all.

Collapse them into one POST /api/run whose destination is a server setting.
It defaults to 'cloud', so an app runs on Deepnote without being configured
for it; runTarget: 'local' runs in a local Python kernel instead. The response
reports which one ran via `target`, and GET /api/info reports runTarget up
front, so a page can label its Run button without being told separately.

The cross-origin guard stays tied to what it protects rather than to a route
name: a cloud run spends the token and can create project content, so it keeps
the guard; a local run does neither and keeps the looser rule it had on its own
route. Local responses now state success: true rather than implying it, so one
field works for both targets.

run-app drops its second button and reads the destination from the server.
serve.mjs takes RUN_TARGET=local to demonstrate the option; without it the
example now runs in Deepnote Cloud and needs DEEPNOTE_TOKEN rather than
OPENAI_API_KEY.

BREAKING CHANGE: POST /api/run-cloud is gone. Callers that ran in the cloud
now POST to /api/run against a server configured with the default runTarget;
callers that ran locally pass runTarget: 'local'.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
serveStatic kept two runner seams, `runner` for a local kernel and
`cloudRunner` for Deepnote, each with its own signature and its own result
type. That forced the run route to branch: two calls, two response builders,
and two shapes for a page to render.

Merge them into one `RunnerFn` — `(input, inputs, options) => Promise<RunResult>`
— covering both ends. `RunOptions` carries what either needs (pythonEnv,
persistSnapshot, token) and `RunResult` describes either outcome: `outputs`
and `success` are the fields every run has, while `runId`, `status`, `created`,
and `viewUrl` describe a cloud run and are simply absent from a local one,
dropping out of the JSON rather than being sent as nulls.

The Deepnote API is the default and the only thing that overrides it is a
local Deepnote kernel to point at, named by `runTarget: 'local'`. Both ends
are adapted to the shared signature where the runner is resolved, so the route
itself no longer branches at all — one call, one response.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Stating success: true for every local run that resolved was wrong. A local
kernel does not throw on a failing block — it returns normally and reports
the failure as summary.failedBlocks > 0 — so the response asserted success
for runs that had actually failed, and a page reading that one field would
present a broken run as a good one.

Derive it instead: a cloud run states success outright, and a local one says
the same thing through failedBlocks. Regression test covers a run returning
failedBlocks: 1.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every existing test injects `runner`, so the defaults — the adapters mapping
RunOptions onto runWithInputs and runInCloud — never executed. codecov flagged
exactly those two lines. They are also the lines where a mistake is invisible:
dropping `token` would break every real cloud run while the suite stayed green.

Mock both modules and assert the mapping, rather than leaving it to integration.

…ontent as absent

A snapshot synthesized from the local source for a no-op run now reports
artifactStatus: 'synthesized' (not 'saved') and human output says so, so
machine consumers and users can tell it apart from an API-produced artifact.
Empty snapshot content from the API is treated as not-yet-attached in
waitForRunSnapshot instead of being written out as an empty file.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…t synthesized status

The docs claimed success described notebook execution alone and that a
no-snapshot run exits 0 — the code fails the command (exit 1) whenever a
successful run's snapshot is not delivered. Also documents the new
artifactStatus: 'synthesized' value and empty-content handling.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…g, pin review fixes with tests

toBlockSpec now strips execution bookkeeping (execution_start,
execution_millis, execution_context_id, source_hash, last_* function keys)
before the spec is compared or created, so pushing an exported file after a
run no longer plans a delete+create of every executed block — which would
give them new ids and drop their comments. Locked in with a fixture test
over examples/housing_price_prediction.deepnote.

Also pins two earlier review fixes with tests: syncNotebookContent receives
the exact plan the user approved, and a remote-only integration does not
trigger an update.

The authentication and "before publishing" sections said "the command"
on pages that now describe two commands, the exit-code note said "an
app" where it meant a Streamlit app, and the two sibling pages still
described the publish page as deploying a built site.

…rypoint

The streamlit publish help and the entrypoint-not-found hint told users to
push the file with `deepnote sync --all-files`. Sync uploads working files
only alongside a notebook push of the same project and otherwise downloads
them, so a Python-only edit never reaches the project that way. Qualify
both strings the way the docs already do and pin the hint in its test.
The invalid-entrypoint and missing-token tests trigger program.error, which
writes to process.stderr and so printed seven usage errors into the test
output. Stub process.stderr.write in those tests, as output-renderer.test.ts
does.
…and links

Add StreamlitAppTimeoutError and the exported types to the cloud package
README and note that waitForStreamlitApp retries transient failures and
treats unavailable as non-terminal. On the publish docs page, count all
three commands in the token note, add the static-site access exit codes
from the skill reference, and restore the Related list descriptions the
sibling pages keep. Name the skill reference "Publish commands".

All five conflicts were additive; both sides are kept in each:

- cspell.json: word-list additions from #519 and from this branch.
- skills/deepnote/SKILL.md: main's publish, static-site access and
  streamlit publish rows (#466, #508) plus this branch's integrations
  auth row, re-padded by prettier.
- packages/cli/src/commands/integrations.ts: imports from both sides;
  DEEPNOTE_TOKEN_ENV stays dropped now that #530 moved the token lookup
  to resolveToken().
- packages/cli/src/commands/run.ts: imports from both sides, and
  setupProject returns both main's pythonHint (#518) and this branch's
  blockIds. The old injectIntegrationEnvVars call after
  validateRequirements stays removed: this branch moved it into the
  credential gate.
- packages/cli/src/commands/run.test.ts: imports from both sides.
