Flare CMS
built to learn.
An AI-native CMS we built to find out what one should be: sites, pages, designs and AI-generated images, all driven by an agent through MCP tools rather than an admin screen. It works. We’re not chasing customers for it, and that’s the honest truth: it was the homework, and the lessons shipped in AgentPress.
// sound familiar?
Nobody quite knows what an AI-native CMS should be, or what a design system has to guarantee before an agent can safely drive it. You cannot answer that by theorising. You have to build one.
// AI websites
What it does
MCP-native publishing
Create a site, add pages, generate images, approve drafts: an AI does the driving through structured tools.
A fleet, not a site
Multi-site by design, with shared designs and search across the fleet.
What it taught us
Where AI-composed pages break, what a design system has to guarantee, when a human must approve: answers that went straight into AgentPress.
- We learned where AI-composed pages break
- We learned what a design system must guarantee
- We learned when a human approval step is load-bearing
// is this you?
Built for us. It was the homework that answered the questions AgentPress was built on.
Not for you if you are looking for a CMS to buy. We are not chasing customers for this one, and that is the honest truth: the answers shipped in AgentPress.
// the build log
75 commits of homework
March to May 2026. No customers, on purpose. Built to answer questions we couldn’t answer any other way, and retired into a better product the moment it had.

Can I buy or use it?
No. It was built to answer questions, not to sell. It worked, we kept the lessons, and retired it into AgentPress.
Did it actually work?
Yes. Sites, pages, designs and AI-generated images, all driven by an agent through MCP tools. We stripped it back the moment it had answered what we needed.
