View and manage Vercel deployments via MCP Server

Need to check the status of a release candidate? Run `get_vercel_deployment_info` in your chat prompt, and the tool output provides all necessary details for review. To see what's currently deployed, use `list_vercel_deployments`. This keeps the entire team on the same page about recent build activity.

List Vercel projects, teams, and domains

When onboarding a new developer or setting up a shared repo, you need an inventory. `list_vercel_projects` pulls all available services. You can pair this with `list_vercel_teams` to confirm access scope. Additionally, use `list_vercel_account_domains` to build out your domain management scripts.

Handle Vercel environment variables and project setup

If a developer needs to test a feature using a new key, they can call `add_vercel_environment_variable`. This operation updates the required secrets in the team's Vercel account. You can verify existing variables by running `list_vercel_project_env_vars`.
