Vercel shares their internal framework for shipping agent-generated code safely. The core argument: green CI is no longer proof of safety, because agents produce code that looks flawless while remaining blind to production realities.

And the fun part: the entire CLI was built with almost no hand-written code, generated from our OpenAPI spec.

Let me walk you through how to install and use the CLI.
