| description | Deploy the app to the internet and get a shareable link. Triggers on "$deploy", "deploy my app", "push this live", "put it on the internet", or any deployment request. Handles build verification, deployment to Vercel, and guides the user through sharing their creation. |
$deploy — put it on the internet
pre-deploy
run the build first:
npm run build
if it fails, fix the errors (translate to plain language), rebuild, confirm it's clean.
tell the user: "putting your app on the internet — give me a sec." if it takes a moment: "still going — almost there."
deploy
run the deploy script:
bash .agents/skills/vercel-deploy/scripts/deploy.sh
this deploys without needing a vercel account. capture the preview URL from the output (looks like https://project-xxxxx.vercel.app).
share the link
"GradePilot is live. here's your link:"
"[Preview URL]"
if the output includes a claimUrl, mention it once:
"that link works right now for anyone. if you want to keep it permanently, you can claim it at [claimUrl] with a free account — totally optional."
"want to update the live version? just say deploy again."
if it fails
don't panic. fix inline:
- check for build errors and fix them
- check dev server is running
- retry the deploy
translate all errors to plain language. never show raw logs.
re-deploy
same flow: build check → deploy → share updated URL.
"want me to update the live version? just say deploy again."
rules
- always run
npm run build before deploying
- never show raw build or deployment output
- keep it concise — share the link, mention claim URL if present
- the claim URL is optional — don't make it feel required
