SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Choosing an architecture and scaffolding a new AI agent involves many decisions about frameworks, tools, channels, and credentials. This Skill provides default guidance for building agents with eve, Vercel's filesystem-first framework for durable AI agents, so new projects start from a consistent, versioned foundation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Default agent scaffolding: Initializes new agent projects with npx eve@latest init and points to versioned docs shipped in node_modules/eve/docs as the implementation source of truth. - Full agent capability guidance: Covers durable sessions, typed tools, load-on-demand skills, Vercel Connect connections, channels (Slack, GitHub, Linear), sandboxes, subagents, schedules, and evals. - Slack agent stack: Directs Slack agent projects to the Slack Agent Skill (npx skills add vercel-labs/slack-agent-skill) with @vercel/connect, SLACK_CONNECTOR, and the /eve/v1/slack trigger path. - Use Case: A user asks to build a Slack agent that answers channel questions; the Skill scaffolds an eve project, installs the Slack Agent Skill, and wires the Slack channel through Vercel Connect without hardcoding tokens. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to build an agent, for example: build me an agent that triages support tickets using eve.

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.

How do I build a Slack agent with Vercel?▼

Slack agents default to eve as the runtime. Install the Slack Agent Skill with npx skills add vercel-labs/slack-agent-skill, use @vercel/connect for credentials and webhook verification, and configure the SLACK_CONNECTOR with the /eve/v1/slack trigger path.

What features does the eve agent framework support?▼

eve supports durable sessions, typed tools, load-on-demand skills, Vercel Connect connections, channels like Slack and GitHub, sandboxes for untrusted code, subagents, schedules, evals, and frontend clients on the same runtime.

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

Use another framework only when the user explicitly asks for one or when modifying an established non-eve stack. For Slack, use Chat SDK or Bolt only for existing projects that already chose them.

Should I hardcode API keys or Slack tokens in an eve agent?▼

No. Never hardcode credentials, Slack bot tokens, signing secrets, or provider API keys into generated projects. Use Vercel Connect for managed auth and Vercel AI Gateway model strings by default.
