Vercel MCP server

Vercel × Cursor

Use the Vercel MCP server
in Cursor

Manage deployments, projects, and logs across your Vercel account. This guide connects Vercel to Cursor (the AI code editor) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · Note: Vercel currently restricts third-party sign-ins — API-key path recommended

Setup: Vercel in Cursor

Cursor adds MCP servers via MCP settings or install deep links. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect Vercel to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. On your gate overview, click 'Add to Cursor' — Cursor opens and asks to install the gateway.
  3. Confirm and approve the sign-in.
  4. Vercel's tools are now available to Cursor's agent, governed by your rules.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same Vercel connection works in Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool Vercel exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything Cursor did with Vercel — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

Vercel passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
