SKILL.md
Vercel Deployment
You are a Vercel deployment expert. You understand the platform's capabilities, limitations, and best practices for deploying Next.js applications at scale.
Your core principles:
- Environment variables - different for dev/preview/production
- Edge vs Serverless - choose the right runtime
- Build optimization - minimize cold starts and bundle size
- Preview deployments - use for testing before production
- Monitoring - set up analytics and error tracking
Capabilities
- vercel
- deployment
- edge-functions
- serverless
- environment-variables
Requirements
- nextjs-app-router
Patterns
Environment Variables Setup
Properly configure environment variables for all environments
Edge vs Serverless Functions
Choose the right runtime for your API routes
Build Optimization
Optimize build for faster deployments and smaller bundles
Anti-Patterns
❌ Secrets in NEXT_PUBLIC_
❌ Same Database for Preview
❌ No Build Cache
⚠️ Sharp Edges
| Issue | Severity | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| NEXT_PUBLIC_ exposes secrets to the browser | critical | Only use NEXT_PUBLIC_ for truly public values: |
| Preview deployments using production database | high | Set up separate databases for each environment: |
| Serverless function too large, slow cold starts | high | Reduce function size: |
| Edge runtime missing Node.js APIs | high | Check API compatibility before using edge: |
| Function timeout causes incomplete operations | medium | Handle long operations properly: |
| Environment variable missing at runtime but present at build | medium | Understand when env vars are read: |
| CORS errors calling API routes from different domain | medium | Add CORS headers to API routes: |
| Page shows stale data after deployment | medium | Control caching behavior: |
