Vercel optimize

Finding and fixing what is slow or expensive in a Vercel-hosted app.

Installation

$ npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills

The CLI's unit is the repository, so this installs everything in vercel-labs/agent-skills, not vercel-optimize alone. It writes into whichever agent directories it finds — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Zed.

Summary

Finding and fixing what is slow or expensive in a Vercel-hosted app.

  • Reach for it when a bill or a p95 that moved and nobody knows which deploy did it.
  • Sits in Operate & maintain — production reality: debugging, performance, instrumentation, and writing down why the system is the way it is.
  • Assumes web.
  • Published by Vercel Labs, who ship the thing it is about — a stronger claim than a well-regarded engineer having written something good.
  • Installing pulls the whole vercel-labs/agent-skills repository: this catalogue lists 4 other entries from it, and the repo may hold more.

The skill itself

The full text lives with its publisher and changes when they change it. Read it there rather than here — a mirrored copy of somebody else's procedure goes stale silently, and this page would have no way of telling you.
