vercel setup

The vercel setup command prepares your machine for coding agents in two steps:

1. Vercel plugin: Installs the Vercel plugin for Claude Code and Codex.
2. AI Gateway: Connects your local coding agents to AI Gateway. This runs the same flow as vercel ai-gateway setup.

The command prompts you before each step and skips agents it doesn't find on your machine.

vercel setup

vercel setup --gateway

vercel setup --plugin --agent codex

vercel setup --dry-run

These are options that only apply to the vercel setup command.

The --plugin option runs only the Vercel plugin step.

vercel setup --plugin

The --gateway option runs only the AI Gateway step.

vercel setup --gateway

The --agent option, value NAME, limits setup to one coding agent. Repeat it to select more than one. The values each step accepts are different:

• Vercel plugin: claude-code or codex.
• AI Gateway: any agent in the supported coding agents list, such as cursor or opencode.

vercel setup --agent claude-code

The --dry-run option shows what would change without writing any files.

vercel setup --dry-run

The --yes option, shorthand -y, skips the confirmation prompts.

vercel setup --yes
