SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires vercel, and includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Managing Vercel deployments, environment variables, domains, and integrations from the terminal involves many commands with subtle pitfalls like wrong project linking, missing CI flags, and disabled deployment protection. This Skill provides structured guidance and decision trees to execute Vercel CLI workflows correctly. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Deployment Workflows: Preview, production, prebuilt, blue/green, and rolling-release deployments with correct flag usage. - Project & Environment Management: Project linking (single vs monorepo), environment variable scoping, and team switching. - Integrations & Storage: Provision Marketplace integrations (databases, KV, blob storage) with automatic env var injection. - Use Case: You need to set up CI/CD for a Turborepo monorepo. The Skill routes you to the monorepo and CI references, ensuring you run vercel link --repo, use --yes, and pass --standalone build artifacts between jobs. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to deploy your project to Vercel production or set up environment variables using the vercel-cli skill.

Frequently Asked Questions about vercel-cli

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy a project to Vercel from the command line?

Run vercel for a preview deployment or vercel --prod for production after linking with vercel link. For deterministic builds, run vercel build followed by vercel deploy --prebuilt. The deployment URL is printed to stdout.

How do I set up Vercel CLI in a CI/CD pipeline?

Authenticate with the VERCEL_TOKEN environment variable, then run vercel pull --yes, vercel build --prod, and vercel deploy --prebuilt --prod. Use --standalone when build and deploy run in separate jobs so artifacts are self-contained.

What is the difference between vercel link and vercel link --repo?

vercel link creates .vercel/project.json tracking a single project, while vercel link --repo creates repo.json mapping multiple directories to projects. Use --repo for monorepos or any project with a non-root directory.

How do I access a Vercel preview deployment with protection enabled?

Use vercel curl with the --deployment flag, which handles deployment protection automatically. Do not disable deployment protection; vercel curl manages the bypass for you.

Can I run Express or Hono backends on Vercel?

Yes, Vercel supports Express, Hono, Fastify, NestJS, and other Node frameworks as first-class apps. Export your app as default from an entrypoint like server.ts; routes are introspected automatically with no rewrites needed.

Why does my Vercel monorepo deployment fail or prompt for a project?

The most common cause is wrong linking: project.json only tracks one project, so monorepos need vercel link --repo. Also verify you are on the correct team with vercel whoami before linking.
