Deploy Your Vibe Coded App to Production with Retool CLI + Claude Cowork

Sep 22, 20261m 28s

Description

You built an app in Cursor, Lovable, or Replit and it works. Now your team wants to use it, which means real data, real permissions, and sign-off from IT. That's where most vibe coded prototypes stall.

This video walks through moving one of those apps into Retool using the Retool CLI and Claude Cowork. You export the app from whatever tool you built it in, drop it into Cowork, and ask it to import the project into Retool and hook it up to your data. The agent reads the components and logic, rebuilds them as a Retool app, and prompts you to connect data sources through Retool's resource layer. When it's done, the app is live behind SSO with permissions and audit logging already in place.
