Vercel CLI Significantly Expands DNS, Domain, and Project Management Commands

Vercel CLI has added dedicated commands for DNS records, domains, and project management, extending dashboard and API capabilities to the terminal. This enables developers to manage infrastructure via interactive mode, scripts, or AI agents.

DNS and Domain Management

Users can query DNS records and modify values by ID. The vercel dns update command allows changes to record name, type, value, TTL, MX priority, SRV record fields, and more. Additionally, for domains purchased through Vercel, users can renew them immediately using vercel domains renew or control auto-renewal settings with the auto-renew option.

Project State and Visibility Control

Projects can now be paused (pause) and resumed (resume). The CLI now supports both enabling and disabling Web Analytics and Speed Insights. Project member management has also been enhanced, allowing role-based addition and removal of members via the vercel project members add/remove commands.

Script and Agent Support

All new commands support structured JSON output for use in scripts and agents. Costly or destructive operations are designed to require explicit confirmation. To use these features, Vercel CLI version 59.6.2 or higher must be installed.
