# Vercel Deploy
Deploy any project to Vercel instantly. **Always deploy as preview** (not production) unless the user explicitly asks for production.
## Prerequisites
- Check whether the Vercel CLI is installed **without** escalated permissions (for example, `command -v vercel`).
- Only escalate the actual deploy command if sandboxing blocks the deployment network calls (`sandbox_permissions=require_escalated`).
- The deployment might take a few minutes. Use appropriate timeout values.
## Quick Start
1. Check whether the Vercel CLI is installed (no escalation for this check):
```bash
command -v vercel
```
2. If `vercel` is installed, run this (with a 10 minute timeout):
```bash
vercel deploy [path] -y
```
**Important:** Use a 10 minute (600000ms) timeout for the deploy command since builds can take a while.
3. If `vercel` is not installed, or if the CLI fails with "No existing credentials found", use the fallback method below.
## Fallback (No Auth)
If CLI fails with auth error, use the deploy script:
```bash
skill_dir="<path-to-skill>"
# Deploy current directory
bash "$skill_dir/scripts/deploy.sh"
# Deploy specific project
bash "$skill_dir/scripts/deploy.sh" /path/to/project
# Deploy existing tarball
bash "$skill_dir/scripts/deploy.sh" /path/to/project.tgz
```
The script handles framework detection, packaging, and deployment. It waits for the build to complete and returns JSON with `previewUrl` and `claimUrl`.
**Tell the user:** "Your deployment is ready at [previewUrl]. Claim it at [claimUrl] to manage your deployment."
## Production Deploys
Only if user explicitly asks:
```bash
vercel deploy [path] --prod -y
```
## Output
Show the user the deployment URL. For fallback deployments, also show the claim URL.
