What it does
Vercel is an agent skill from hoodini/ai-agents-skills. Deploy and configure applications on Vercel. Use when deploying Next.js apps, configuring serverless functions, setting up edge functions, or managing Vercel projects. Triggers on Vercel, deploy, serverless, edge function, Next.js deployment.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Serverless and Deployment. It works with Vercel and Next.js. The repository describes itself as: 🧠 AI Agent Skills Repository - A curated collection of specialized skills for AI coding agents (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf). Created by Yuval Avidani using…
When your agent uses it
- Deploying Next.js apps
- Configuring serverless functions
- Setting up edge functions
- Managing Vercel projects
Example prompts
- “/vercel”
Requirements
- Node.js
- A credential in CRON_SECRET
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f7a43d8. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
vercelnpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
vercel.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
CRON_SECRET
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Vercel loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 42 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
Safety
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:167
vercel env pull .env.local
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 42 words (~1,054 tokens).
“Deploy and scale applications on Vercel's edge network.”
