vercel-security-access — Claude Code skill: Vercel access and security
A reference skill for Vercel security: roles, SSO, deployment protection, firewall, BotID and audit logs. Useful when you lock down projects and previews.
npx skills add bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills --skill vercel-security-access -a claude-codeWhat vercel-security-access does
The skill lays out how Vercel handles identity and access: RBAC for project permissions, SSO over SAML or OIDC, and required 2FA for sensitive access. Separate sections cover deployment protection for previews and production, plus limiting who can reach protected builds.
Then come Vercel Firewall traffic rules and BotID for cutting automated abuse. Audit logs serve compliance reviews; activity logs answer who did what. Both get a short walkthrough.
Each topic is a compact list of actions with links to the matching Vercel docs. The skill is marked user-invocable: false, so you don't call it by typing a phrase — the agent picks it up when a task touches access or security. Two related skills, vercel-teams-billing and vercel-observability, are mentioned as optional; this one works without them.
What it helps with
- assign project permissions by role in Vercel
- wire up SSO through SAML or OIDC
- keep preview deployments away from outsiders
- write firewall rules for incoming traffic
- read the audit log before a compliance check
Example prompts for the agent
- Help me set up RBAC roles for our Vercel projects
- How do I enable SAML SSO on Vercel?
- Which firewall rules should I add against bots on Vercel?

What does vercel-security-access do?
It gathers Vercel security practices in one place: RBAC, SSO, deployment protection, firewall, BotID, 2FA, and audit plus activity logs.
Do I invoke the skill manually?
No. It carries user-invocable: false, so the agent loads it on its own when a task involves Vercel access or security.

## Overview
Vercel security features cover identity, access control, deployment protection, and threat mitigation.
## Access Control
- Use RBAC to define project permissions.
- Configure SAML or OIDC for SSO.
- Require 2FA for sensitive access.
## Deployment Protection
- Apply deployment protection for previews and production.
- Limit access to protected deployments.
## Firewall and Bot Defense
- Use Vercel Firewall to manage traffic rules.
- Use BotID to mitigate automated abuse.
## Audit and Activity Logs
- Review audit logs for compliance.
- Track activity history for user actions.
