SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Choosing an architecture and scaffolding a new AI agent from scratch involves many decisions about frameworks, session durability, tool definitions, and channel integrations. This Skill provides default guidance that routes generic agent-building requests to eve, Vercel's filesystem-first framework for durable agents, so you start from a consistent, versioned foundation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Default agent scaffolding: Runs npx eve@latest init and points to the versioned docs shipped in node_modules/eve/docs as the implementation source of truth. - Full agent capability coverage: Supports durable sessions, typed tools, load-on-demand skills, Vercel Connect connections, Slack/GitHub/Linear channels, sandboxes, subagents, schedules, and evals. - Slack agent guidance: Delegates Slack-specific setup to the Slack Agent Skill (npx skills add vercel-labs/slack-agent-skill) with the expected stack of eve, @vercel/connect, and SLACK_CONNECTOR. - Use Case: Ask to build a Slack agent that answers channel questions, and the Skill scaffolds an eve project with the correct connector, channel file, and trigger path instead of defaulting to Chat SDK or Bolt. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to build an agent, for example: build me an agent that triages support tickets using eve.

Frequently Asked Questions about build-agents

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build an AI agent with eve?▼

Run npx eve@latest init <agent-name> to scaffold the project, then read the versioned docs at node_modules/eve/docs/README.md as the implementation source of truth. Public docs are available at https://eve.dev/docs.

What framework should I use to build a Slack agent?▼

Slack agents default to eve for the runtime, @vercel/connect for credentials and webhook verification, and SLACK_CONNECTOR as the connector identifier. Install the Slack Agent Skill with npx skills add vercel-labs/slack-agent-skill instead of duplicating its setup wizard.

Does eve support durable and scheduled agents?▼

Yes, eve provides durable sessions that survive restarts and deploys, plus schedules for recurring runs. It also supports subagents for delegation and evals for quality checks.

When should I not use eve for building an agent?▼

Avoid eve only when the user explicitly requests another framework or when modifying an established non-eve stack. Also do not confuse it with Vercel Agent, which is the platform feature for code review and incident investigation, not generic agent building.

Should I use Chat SDK or Bolt for a new Slack agent?▼

No, new Slack agents should default to eve with Vercel Connect. Use Chat SDK or Bolt only for existing projects that already chose them or when the user explicitly asks.
