Bring Serverless
to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Vercel to VS Code Copilot and start using all 10 AI tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code. No hosting, no server setup — just connect and start using.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Vercel MCP Server?
Embed your Vercel continuous integration ecosystem into the mind of your AI agent. Perform advanced DevOps commands via chat, bypassing the Vercel web UI and checking application states natively within your IDE.
What you can do
- Project Control — Command your assistant to list your current architecture portfolio, examine Git environment settings, or spin up new Vercel boundary projects dynamically from the chat window.
- Deployment Management — Trace live builds. Request the active CI/CD execution status on recent commits, fetch preview URLs upon build completion, or ruthlessly cancel stalled serverless compilations.
- Manual Deploy Triggers — Skip the Github pushes. You can explicitly command a forced build on specific repository tags directly through the MCP integration when hot-fixing.
- Domain Auditing — Ask the agent to map out the DNS and SSL status of your custom root domains, parsing current subdomain routing alias tables clearly.
How it works
- Subscribe your workspace to this connector
- Introduce your personal Vercel API Token for authorization
- Engage Claude or Cursor to manage deployment lifecycles seamlessly
Who is this for?
- Frontend Engineers — trigger new manual Next.js deployments inside Cursor directly after fixing a tricky CSS bug, tracking the CI steps silently while coding the next feature.
- DevOps Architects — perform rapid audits of linked domain structures and DNS alias health checks across the organization's array using basic conversational inputs.
- Quality Assurance — instantly pull the most recent Preview URL generated from the target branch staging deployments without hunting for the Vercel notification link.

Frequently asked questions
Can I cancel a stuck Vercel deployment directly from my chat window?
Yes. If a build hangs, simply find its ID via list_deployments and tell the agent: Abort the deployment execution 'dpl_9B...'. The cancelDeploymentTool intercepts and kills the remote CI task instantly.
How do I get the Preview URL of a newly built branch?
Instruct the AI manually: Grab the deployment details for 'dpl_xx3'. Using the getDeploymentTool, the agent will output the associated generated live url property for you to click without going to the dashboard notifications.
Can I spin up an empty Vercel project programmatically through the agent before I even connect my repository?
Yes. Run the prompt: Create a new Next.js project on Vercel named 'test-saas'. The agent initiates createProjectTool, and Vercel will instantly return its new unique Project GUID, ready to be linked to code whenever you wish.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
