At a glance

A skill your agent uses when deploying Next.js applications to Vercel.

Works in 3 steps: Go to Vercel Dashboard > Project >… → Add your domain (e.g., yourdomain.com) → Configure DNS records
Deploying Next.js applications to Vercel
SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Project Structure, vercel.json Configuration and Environment Variables, plus 5 more sections
Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls vercel and npm; reaches vercel.com and sentry.io; needs NEXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY and API_SECRET_KEY

What it does

Vercel Deploy is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Use when deploying Next.js applications to Vercel. Triggers for: vercel.json configuration, build optimization, environment variable setup, custom domain configuration, API proxy setup, or deployment troubleshooting. NOT for: backend-only deployments, non-Vercel hosting, or local development setup.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/verify.py` and `skill-report.json`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Deployment and Secrets management. It works with Vercel and Next.js. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

Deploying Next.js applications to Vercel
: vercel.json configuration
Build optimization
Environment variable setup

Example prompts

“/vercel-deploy”

Requirements

Python 3
Node.js
A credential in NEXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY
A credential in API_SECRET_KEY

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Go to Vercel Dashboard > Project > Settings > Domains
Add your domain (e.g., yourdomain.com)
Configure DNS records

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ad8daf7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- vercel
- npm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
- vercel.com
- sentry.io
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
- NEXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY
- API_SECRET_KEY
- VERCEL_TOKEN
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Vercel Deploy loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 313 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~78
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~2.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
