AI agents can now autonomously discover, install, and retrieve setup instructions for Vercel Marketplace integrations using the Vercel CLI. This lets agents configure databases, auth, logging, and other services end-to-end in one workflow.
These capabilities are powered by the new discover and guide commands in the Vercel CLI.
By using the --format=json flag with the discover command, the CLI provides non-interactive JSON output that benefits developers as well, making it easier to automate infrastructure, write custom scripts, and manage CI/CD pipelines.
When building an application, agents begin by exploring available integrations using the discover command.
After exploring the options, the agent can add an integration and then fetch getting started guides and code snippets for a specific integration using the guide command.
The Vercel CLI returns this setup documentation in an agent-friendly markdown format. This allows the agent to easily parse the instructions, write the necessary integration code, and configure the project autonomously.
For integrations with required metadata fields, agents can use the help command to determine the required inputs and pass them as options to the add command.
The CLI also makes it easy to pause this process for human decisions, like terms of service acceptance. Agents can prompt developers for confirmation, enabling hybrid workflows that require human oversight of certain integration decisions.
These commands are continuously tested against agent evaluations to ensure reliable autonomous behavior.
