Low Risk — CLI UX improvement for non-TTY agent plugin installation prompts with preference persistence.

auto-install-agentic.ts: confirm() now returns false for non-TTY instead of auto-approving agents
auto-install-agentic.ts: adds structured JSON output for agents in non-TTY mode
auto-install-agentic.ts: wraps agent init logic in try-catch for error handling

([#15712](#15712)) ## @vercel/backends@0.0.52 ### Patch Changes - Updated dependencies \[[`a54b8f246ac6b43ac8f1674093402e3fe145fd64`](a54b8f2)]: - @vercel/build-utils@13.11.0 ## @vercel/cervel@0.0.39 ### Patch Changes - Updated dependencies \[]: - @vercel/backends@0.0.52 ## vercel@50.37.1 ### Patch Changes - Improve agent plugin install flow: agents now receive structured JSON prompts for plugin installation instead of auto-approving silently. Preferences are persisted to avoid repeat prompts. On deploy, shows a non-blocking tip if the plugin is not installed. ([#15707](#15707)) - Auto-install agent tooling on `vercel login`, `vercel link`, and `vercel deploy`. When a supported agent platform (Claude Code, Cursor) is detected or the user has `~/.claude`/`~/.cursor` directories, prompts to install the Vercel plugin. On `vercel link`, also prompts to add Vercel best practices to AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md. On `vercel deploy`, shows a non-blocking tip if the plugin is not installed. User preferences are persisted to avoid repeat prompts. ([#15692](#15692)) - Add --archive support to `deploy continue` command.
