SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Getting a local project live on the web usually requires Vercel account setup, CLI authentication, and manual framework configuration. This Skill deploys any project to Vercel and returns a shareable preview URL, with a no-auth fallback path when the CLI is unavailable. ## Core Features & Use Cases - CLI-Based Deployment: Runs vercel deploy for preview deployments by default, reserving --prod for explicit production requests. - No-Auth Fallback Script: Uses scripts/deploy.sh to package the project, detect the framework from package.json, and deploy through a claimable endpoint returning previewUrl and claimUrl. - Framework Detection: Automatically identifies Next.js, Astro, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Remix, Express, and dozens of other frameworks from dependencies. - Use Case: You finish a Next.js landing page and want a live link to share. The Skill deploys the directory, waits for the build to complete, and hands you the preview URL plus a claim URL to manage the deployment. ## Quick Start Deploy this project to Vercel and give me the preview link.

Frequently Asked Questions about vercel-deploy

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy my app to Vercel from the command line?▼

Run `vercel deploy [path] -y` with the Vercel CLI installed to create a preview deployment. Use a generous timeout since builds can take several minutes, and only add `--prod` when a production deployment is explicitly requested.

How can I deploy to Vercel without an account or CLI credentials?▼

Use the fallback deploy.sh script, which packages the project into a tarball and posts it to a claimable deploy endpoint. It returns a previewUrl for the live site and a claimUrl you can use to take ownership of the deployment.

Does the deploy script support frameworks other than Next.js?▼

Yes, the script detects frameworks from package.json dependencies, including Astro, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Remix, Gatsby, Angular, Express, Fastify, Hono, and many others. Static HTML projects without package.json are also supported.

Why does my Vercel deployment fail with network errors?▼

Sandboxed environments can block outbound requests, causing timeouts or DNS errors during deployment. Rerun only the deploy command with escalated permissions; the CLI installation check does not need escalation.

What files are excluded when the deploy script packages a project?▼

The script excludes node_modules, .git, and .env files when creating the deployment tarball. It stages files in a temporary directory so the source tree is never modified.
