vercel-labs/agent-skills — install for Claude Code

github.com/vercel-labs/agent-skills · skills collection · Agent Skills format

What it does

A small collection of skills for coding agents, following the Agent Skills format. The README lists skills including vercel-optimize (audits a Vercel project for cost, performance and reliability), react-best-practices, web-design-guidelines, writing-guidelines, react-native-guidelines, react-view-transitions and deploy-to-vercel.

The skills are instruction files plus supporting rules, references and, for vercel-optimize, scripts that inspect a project. They are meant to be loaded by the agent when a matching task comes up, not run as a standalone app.

Install

Install (verified against the repo README's Installation section):

npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills

The installer detects the agent in use and places the skills in the right directory. Nothing in the README describes a separate per-skill install command, so none is given here.

Verified against github.com/vercel-labs/agent-skills (README, Installation), 2026-10-23.

Trust score: NO_SCORE

No score is given for this page. The vercel-optimize skill alone ships scripts and library code running to roughly fifteen thousand lines, which was not fully read in this pass, so a scored review would not be honest. What was checked is listed under Verification below.

Verification

Tier: AUTHOR_DOCS_VERIFIED. Verified 2026-10-23 from the author's own repository (fresh clone this run). No install was executed and no account was connected in this pass.

What was checked: Author README (full skill list, Installation section) and the skills directory listing were read from a fresh clone of the repo. Skill SKILL.md files were listed and their line counts noted; the vercel-optimize scripts and library code were not fully read.

Limits: Install command checked against the author README; not executed in this pass. No full code read was done, so no trust score is given.
