Safety check

  • Pass

    Publisher verified

    Endpoint mcp.vercel.com is stated as Vercel's official endpoint in vercel.com docs, and the Claude directory lists it as made by Vercel, Anthropic verified.

  • Pass

    Auth model

    OAuth with Streamable HTTP; explicit user consent per client connection (confused-deputy protection). Only Vercel-approved AI clients can connect. Connecting grants the AI the same access as your Vercel user.

  • Flag

    Write and delete access

    Tool catalog covers 217 tools across deployments, domains and DNS, environment variables, billing and purchases, firewall, sandboxes and more. No read-only mode documented; Vercel advises human confirmation for every step.

  • Unknown

    Tool-description injection scan

    Closed-source hosted server. Docs pages and tool-category names were read, not the live tool description text. Docs pages carry 'For AI agents' navigation notes about related links; benign and not followed.

  • Unknown

    Repo maintenance

    No public repository for the hosted server found (github.com/vercel/vercel-mcp returned 404), so maintenance is not checkable.
