Managing Vercel Container Registry with Vercel CLI

·2026.08.20 09:00

Key point

The vcr command has been added to Vercel CLI, enabling container image building and pushing, as well as repository management, all in one place.

Details

A new vercel vcr command group has been introduced to Vercel CLI to support managing Vercel Container Registry (VCR). This enables integration with existing container tooling, building and pushing images, and managing repositories and tags.

Existing container tools such as Docker, Podman, and Buildah can authenticate using short-lived tokens scoped to the project. After authenticating with the vercel vcr login docker command, you can build an image from the current directory and push it to the registry in a single step using vercel vcr build docker --push.

Repositories are automatically created on the first push or can be explicitly created with the vercel vcr add command. You can list stored repositories, images, and tags, or view detailed information using commands such as vercel vcr ls, vercel vcr image ls, and vercel vcr tag inspect.

You can use this feature by updating to the latest Vercel CLI (pnpm i -g vercel@latest), and refer to the Vercel Container Registry documentation for more details.
