Netlify Deployment Skill
Deploy web projects to Netlify using the Netlify CLI with intelligent detection of project configuration and deployment context.
When to Use
Use this skill when the user wants to:
deploy a web project to Netlify
link an existing repo to a Netlify site
create preview or production deploys
troubleshoot Netlify CLI auth or site linking
Usage
Recommended flow:
verify auth
-> detect linked site or create/link one
-> install dependencies
-> deploy preview first
-> promote to production when ready
Overview
This skill automates Netlify deployments by:
Verifying Netlify CLI authentication
Detecting project configuration and framework
Linking to existing sites or creating new ones
Deploying to production or preview environments
Prerequisites
Netlify CLI: Installed via npx (no global install required)
Authentication: Netlify account with active login session
Project: Valid web project in current directory
When sandboxing blocks the deployment network calls, rerun with sandbox_permissions=require_escalated.
The deployment might take a few minutes. Use appropriate timeout values.
Authentication Pattern
The skill uses the pre-authenticated Netlify CLI approach:
Check authentication status with npx netlify status
If not authenticated, guide user through npx netlify login
Fail gracefully if authentication cannot be established
Authentication uses either:
Browser-based OAuth (primary): netlify login opens browser for authentication
API Key (alternative): Set NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable
Workflow
1. Verify Netlify CLI Authentication
Check if the user is logged into Netlify:
npx netlify status
Expected output patterns:
✅ Authenticated: Shows logged-in user email and site link status
❌ Not authenticated: "Not logged into any site" or authentication error
, guide the user:
If not authenticated
npx netlify login
This opens a browser window for OAuth authentication. Wait for user to complete login, then verify with netlify status again.
Alternative: API Key authentication
If browser authentication isn't available, users can set:
Linked: Site already connected to Netlify (shows site name/URL)
Not linked: Need to link or create site
3. Link to Existing Site or Create New
If already linked → Skip to step 4
If not linked, attempt to link by Git remote:
# Check if project is Git-based
git remote show origin
# If Git-based, extract remote URL# Format: https://github.com/username/repo or git@github.com:username/repo.git# Try to link by Git remote
npx netlify link --git-remote-url <REMOTE_URL>
If link fails (site doesn't exist on Netlify):
# Create new site interactively
npx netlify init
This guides user through:
Choosing team/account
Setting site name
Configuring build settings
Creating netlify.toml if needed
4. Verify Dependencies
Before deploying, ensure project dependencies are installed:
# For npm projects
npm install
# For other package managers, detect and use appropriate command# yarn install, pnpm install, etc.
5. Deploy to Netlify
Choose deployment type based on context:
Preview/Draft Deploy (default for existing sites):
npx netlify deploy
This creates a deploy preview with a unique URL for testing.
Production Deploy (for new sites or explicit production deployments):
npx netlify deploy --prod
This deploys to the live production URL.
Deployment process:
CLI detects build settings (from netlify.toml or prompts user)
Builds the project locally
Uploads built assets to Netlify
Returns deployment URL
6. Report Results
After deployment, report to user:
Deploy URL: Unique URL for this deployment
Site URL: Production URL (if production deploy)
Deploy logs: Link to Netlify dashboard for logs
Next steps: Suggest netlify open to view site or dashboard
Handling netlify.toml
If a netlify.toml file exists, the CLI uses it automatically. If not, the CLI will prompt for:
Build command: e.g., npm run build, next build
Publish directory: e.g., dist, build, .next
Common framework defaults:
Next.js: build command npm run build, publish .next
React (Vite): build command npm run build, publish dist
Static HTML: no build command, publish current directory
The skill should detect framework from package.json if possible and suggest appropriate settings.
Example Full Workflow
# 1. Check authentication
npx netlify status
# If not authenticated:
npx netlify login
# 2. Link site (if needed)# Try Git-based linking first
git remote show origin
npx netlify link --git-remote-url https://github.com/user/repo
# If no site exists, create new one:
npx netlify init
# 3. Install dependencies
npm install
# 4. Deploy (preview for testing)
npx netlify deploy
# 5. Deploy to production (when ready)
npx netlify deploy --prod
Error Handling
Common issues and solutions:
"Not logged in"
→ Run npx netlify login
"No site linked"
→ Run npx netlify link or npx netlify init
"Build failed"
→ Check build command and publish directory in netlify.toml or CLI prompts
→ Verify dependencies are installed
→ Review build logs for specific errors
"Publish directory not found"
→ Verify build command ran successfully
→ Check publish directory path is correct
Troubleshooting
Escalated Network Access
If deployment fails due to network issues (timeouts, DNS errors, connection resets), rerun the deploy with escalated permissions (use sandbox_permissions=require_escalated). The deploy requires escalated network access when sandbox networking blocks outbound requests.
Example guidance to the user:
The deploy needs escalated network access to deploy to Netlify. I can rerun the command with escalated permissions—want me to proceed?
Environment Variables
For secrets and configuration:
Never commit secrets to Git
Set in Netlify dashboard: Site Settings → Environment Variables
Access in builds via process.env.VARIABLE_NAME
Tips
Use netlify deploy (no --prod) first to test before production
Run netlify open to view site in Netlify dashboard
Run netlify logs to view function logs (if using Netlify Functions)
Use netlify dev for local development with Netlify Functions
