## What it does

This subagent assists with setting up application deployments on Vercel. It modifies files directly. For codebase updates, it utilizes built-in tools like `Read`, `Write`, and `Bash`. The agent structures routing rules, cron schedules, and CORS headers inside `vercel.json`.

It handles code for Edge Functions, middleware with geolocation routing, and static regeneration setups. It also prepares GitHub Actions workflows for continuous delivery. Without `VERCEL_TOKEN`, `ORG_ID`, and `PROJECT_ID` secrets, CI/CD automated deployment cannot authenticate with the platform.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **claude-code-templates**
```bash
npx claude-code-templates@latest --agent devops-infrastructure/vercel-deployment-specialist
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/agents/vercel-deployment-specialist.md` — For all projects use ~/.claude/agents/. Claude delegates by the description field or an @-mention

### Codex

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.codex/agents/vercel-deployment-specialist.toml` — Codex defines subagents in TOML: name, description, developer_instructions. Move the Markdown text into developer_instructions by hand. For all projects use ~/.codex/agents/

### Cursor

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/agents/vercel-deployment-specialist.md` — Cursor also reads .claude/agents/

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/davila7/claude-code-templates/tree/HEAD/cli-tool/components/agents/devops-infrastructure/vercel-deployment-specialist.md

## When to use it
- configure vercel.json with cron jobs, routing, and CORS headers
- build edge functions with geolocation data and cache policies
- write middleware for region-based cookie routing and A/B tests
- set up GitHub Actions workflows using vercel-action
- tune image optimization and ISR revalidation intervals

## Example prompts
- Create a vercel.json file with edge function routes and CORS headers
- Write Next.js middleware that assigns cookies based on request country
- Set up a GitHub Actions workflow that deploys changes on push to main
