Flags

The vercel-flags skill enables AI agents to manage feature toggles directly within Vercel projects, allowing for dynamic control over application behavior without redeploying code. It integrates with Next.js environments to switch features on or off based on specific conditions like user segments or environment settings.

When to use it

• Roll out new UI components to a subset of users before a global launch.
• Disable experimental backend logic during peak traffic hours to ensure stability.
• Toggle A/B test variations instantly without waiting for a build pipeline.
• Revert a specific feature immediately if a critical bug is detected in production.

Key capabilities

• Create and manage feature flags via the Vercel dashboard or API.
• Define targeting rules to show features to specific users, roles, or environments.
• Integrate seamlessly with Next.js applications for real-time flag evaluation.
• View flag status and usage analytics within the project overview.

Example prompts

• "Create a new feature flag named 'dark-mode-beta' that is enabled only for users in the staging environment."
• "Update the 'new-checkout-flow' flag to target 10% of all active users globally."
• "Disable the 'experimental-api-endpoint' flag immediately due to reported latency issues."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your Vercel project has the necessary permissions to modify feature flags before attempting automation. While this skill manages toggles, it does not replace the need for robust code logic that checks these flags within your application source files.
