Agent Skills

A collection of skills for AI coding agents. Skills are packaged instructions and scripts that extend agent capabilities.

Skills follow the Agent Skills format.

Available Skills

vercel-optimize

Audits a Vercel project for cost, performance, reliability, caching, function usage, and billing opportunities. It collects Vercel metrics first, then investigates only the routes and files those metrics point to.

Use when:

• Optimizing a deployed Vercel project
• Reducing Vercel costs or function usage
• Investigating slow or expensive routes
• Finding caching, ISR, middleware, image, or build-minute issues
• Producing a ranked cost and performance report

react-best-practices

React and Next.js performance optimization guidelines from Vercel Engineering. Contains 40+ rules across 8 categories, prioritized by impact.

Use when:

• Writing new React components or Next.js pages
• Implementing data fetching (client or server-side)
• Reviewing code for performance issues
• Optimizing bundle size or load times

Categories covered:

• Eliminating waterfalls (Critical)
• Bundle size optimization (Critical)
• Server-side performance (High)
• Client-side data fetching (Medium-High)
• Re-render optimization (Medium)
• Rendering performance (Medium)
• JavaScript micro-optimizations (Low-Medium)

web-design-guidelines

Review UI code for compliance with web interface best practices. Audits your code for 100+ rules covering accessibility, performance, and UX.

Use when:

• "Review my UI"
• "Check accessibility"
• "Audit design"
• "Review UX"
• "Check my site against best practices"

Categories covered:

• Accessibility (aria-labels, semantic HTML, keyboard handlers)
• Focus States (visible focus, focus-visible patterns)
• Forms (autocomplete, validation, error handling)
• Animation (prefers-reduced-motion, compositor-friendly transforms)
• Typography (curly quotes, ellipsis, tabular-nums)
• Images (dimensions, lazy loading, alt text)
• Performance (virtualization, layout thrashing, preconnect)
• Navigation & State (URL reflects state, deep-linking)
• Dark Mode & Theming (color-scheme, theme-color meta)
• Touch & Interaction (touch-action, tap-highlight)
• Locale & i18n (Intl.DateTimeFormat, Intl.NumberFormat)

react-native-guidelines

React Native best practices optimized for AI agents. Contains 16 rules across 7 sections covering performance, architecture, and platform-specific patterns.

Use when:

• Building React Native or Expo apps
• Optimizing mobile performance
• Implementing animations or gestures
• Working with native modules or platform APIs

Categories covered:

• Performance (Critical) - FlashList, memoization, heavy computation
• Layout (High) - flex patterns, safe areas, keyboard handling
• Animation (High) - Reanimated, gesture handling
• Images (Medium) - expo-image, caching, lazy loading
• State Management (Medium) - Zustand patterns, React Compiler
• Architecture (Medium) - monorepo structure, imports
• Platform (Medium) - iOS/Android specific patterns

react-view-transitions

Implement smooth, native-feeling animations using React's View Transition API. Covers the <ViewTransition> component, addTransitionType, transition types, and Next.js integration including the transitionTypes prop on next/link.

Use when:

• Adding page transitions or route animations
• Animating enter/exit of components
• Creating shared element transitions (list-to-detail morphing)
• Implementing directional (forward/back) navigation animations
• Integrating view transitions in Next.js App Router
• Animating list reorder or Suspense fallback reveals

Topics covered:

• <ViewTransition> component (enter, exit, update, share triggers)
• addTransitionType for directional/context-specific animations
• View Transition Classes and CSS pseudo-elements
• Shared element transitions with the name prop
• JavaScript animations via Web Animations API
• Next.js transitionTypes prop on next/link
• Ready-to-use CSS animation recipes (fade, slide, scale, flip)
• Accessibility (prefers-reduced-motion)

composition-patterns

React composition patterns that scale. Helps avoid boolean prop proliferation through compound components, state lifting, and internal composition.

Use when:

• Refactoring components with many boolean props
• Building reusable component libraries
• Designing flexible APIs
• Reviewing component architecture

Patterns covered:

• Extracting compound components
• Lifting state to reduce props
• Composing internals for flexibility
• Avoiding prop drilling

vercel-deploy-claimable

Deploy applications and websites to Vercel instantly. Designed for use with claude.ai and Claude Desktop to enable deployments directly from conversations. Deployments are "claimable" - users can transfer ownership to their own Vercel account.

Use when:

• "Deploy my app"
• "Deploy this to production"
• "Push this live"
• "Deploy and give me the link"

Features:

• Auto-detects 40+ frameworks from package.json
• Returns preview URL (live site) and claim URL (transfer ownership)
• Handles static HTML projects automatically
• Excludes node_modules and .git from uploads

How it works:

1. Packages your project into a tarball
2. Detects framework (Next.js, Vite, Astro, etc.)
3. Uploads to deployment service
4. Returns preview URL and claim URL

Output:

Deployment successful!

Preview URL: https://skill-deploy-abc123.vercel.app
Claim URL:   https://vercel.com/claim-deployment?code=...

Installation

npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills

Usage

Skills are automatically available once installed. The agent will use them when relevant tasks are detected.

Examples:

Deploy my app

Review this React component for performance issues

Help me optimize this Next.js page

Skill Structure

Each skill contains:

• SKILL.md - Instructions for the agent
• scripts/ - Helper scripts for automation (optional)
• references/ - Supporting documentation (optional)
