vercel-deploy

Vercel Deploy is a deployment skill that packages a local project and pushes it live to Vercel, returning a preview URL plus a claimable link that lets the user transfer the deployment to their own Vercel account. Its headline convenience is that no authentication is required to run it, which solves the friction of getting a working site online quickly during a coding session ("deploy my app", "push this live", "create a preview deployment").

Operationally, the skill runs a shell script (scripts/deploy.sh) that packages the project into a tarball while excluding node_modules and .git, auto-detects the framework from package.json, uploads the package to a deployment service, and returns both the preview URL and a claim URL. Framework detection covers a broad set including Next.js, Gatsby, Remix, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Astro, Angular, Express, Hono, NestJS, Vite, and many more; static HTML projects without a package.json are handled by renaming a single non-index HTML file so it serves at the root. Results are printed for humans and also emitted as JSON (previewUrl, claimUrl, deploymentId, projectId) for programmatic use. The docs include troubleshooting for network egress restrictions on claude.ai, advising the user to allowlist Vercel domains.

The skill is aimed at developers and prototypers who want instant, low-ceremony deployments without configuring credentials up front. The main thing to understand before use is that it archives your project directory and uploads it to an external deployment service; that is the skill's intended function, but users should be aware their source is transmitted off-machine and that the resulting deployment is claimable rather than tied to a pre-authenticated account.
