·2026.11.03 09:00

Key point

The new command checks CLI version, login, project link, and configuration, reporting status and providing fix commands for each issue.

Details

  • Vercel CLI now includes the vercel doctor command, which checks the setup and displays the specific command to fix each identified problem.
  • Checks cover CLI version and install, login status, current team, project link, and vercel.json configuration, also reporting active incidents from the Vercel status page.
  • Each check returns a status of OK, Warning, Failed, or Skipped; if vercel upgrade fails, the install check shows the CLI path and reinstall instructions.
  • The tool runs without login or a linked project and never prompts, allowing coding agents to execute it; the --json flag provides structured output of statuses and suggested commands.
