Profile reviewed by the Vibe Coding Editorial Team · Updated 2026-10-09
Installation
Review the source, then run the command
npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills --skill vercel-optimizeRequires Node.js 20+, Vercel CLI 53+, an authenticated session, and a linked Vercel project.
Best for
- Reducing function and bandwidth spend
- Investigating slow or expensive routes
- Finding caching, ISR, image, and build-minute opportunities
What it adds
- Collects account, usage, and route metrics before deciding which code paths deserve attention.
- Connects observed production behavior to specific routes, configuration, and implementation evidence.
- Produces a ranked report that separates measured facts, documentation, and recommendations.
- 01Confirm the CLI version, authenticated scope, linked project, and analysis window.
- 02Collect Vercel metrics and usage data, then inspect only the implicated routes and files.
- 03Rank changes by expected impact, confidence, effort, and a concrete way to verify the result.
Skills are instructions with consequences
- Metrics and billing data can be sensitive; use the narrowest account and project scope.
- Do not apply caching or architecture changes until correctness and freshness requirements are understood.
- Re-measure after changes instead of treating estimated savings as achieved results.
