The Vercel CLI (`vercel` or `vc`) deploys, manages, and develops projects on the Vercel platform from the command line. Use `vercel <command> -h` for full flag details on any command.

Use vercel <command> -h for full flag details on any command.
Commands must be run from the directory containing the .vercel folder (or a subdirectory of it). How .vercel gets set up depends on your project structure:
.vercel/project.json: Created by vercel link. Links a single project. Fine for single-project repos, and can work in monorepos if there's only one project..vercel/repo.json: Created by vercel link --repo. Links a repo that may contain multiple projects. Always a good idea when any project has a non-root directory (e.g., apps/web).Running from a project subdirectory (e.g., apps/web/) skips the "which project?" prompt since it's unambiguous.
When something goes wrong, check how things are linked first — look at what's in .vercel/ and whether it's project.json or repo.json. Also verify you're on the right team with vercel whoami — linking while on the wrong team is a common mistake.
npm i -g vercel
vercel login
vercel link # single project
# OR
vercel link --repo # monorepo
vercel pull
vercel dev # local development
vercel deploy # preview deployment
vercel --prod # production deployment

Use vercel link --repo instead. When things break, check .vercel/ first.vercel link if .vercel/ doesn't exist. This creates project.json, which may be wrong.

Triggers on vercel.json, .vercel dir, or VERCEL_TOKEN.
Deploys and manages Vercel projects using token-based authentication. Automatically locates VERCEL_TOKEN and project IDs from environment or .env files, then runs CLI commands without exposing secrets.
Implements typed TypeScript fetch wrappers for Vercel REST API with auth, pagination, error handling, and methods for projects/deployments. Use for programmatic integrations or deployment tools.
