Vercel AI SDK Skills - Setup Guide¶
Source: vercel/ai GitHub: vercel/ai Skills: 3 skills · 51.1K total installs Category: TypeScript AI Development First Seen: ai-sdk on skills.sh January 23, 2026; catalogued August 16, 2026 sweep Quality Tier: 🟡 Trusted - official Vercel org; ai-sdk carries a Snyk Warn (see Limitations)
Vercel's official skills make the AI SDK (ai package on npm) safe for agents to work with: version-matched documentation, migration playbooks, and a guardrail against the single biggest agent failure mode - writing AI SDK code from memory against obsolete APIs.
Installation¶
npx skills add vercel/ai
Individual skills install with the explicit repo form:
npx skills add https://github.com/vercel/ai --skill ai-sdk
Prerequisites¶
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Node.js + npx | For the skill installer |
| TypeScript project | The SDK is TypeScript-first |
| Vercel AI SDK | npm install ai in the target project |
What It Provides¶
| Skill | Installs | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| ai-sdk | 48.0K | Core SDK docs: generateText, streamText, ToolLoopAgent, embed, tool calling across providers |
| migrate-ai-sdk-v6-to-v7 | 3.1K | Breaking-change migration playbook |
| island-rescue | 9 | Early-access helper |
The core ai-sdk skill covers the unified API across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and other providers; React hooks (useChat, useCompletion); type-safe agent consumption via InferAgentUIMessage; and local DevTools debugging. Its central doctrine: never write AI SDK code from memory - always verify against the version-matched docs bundled inside node_modules.
Quick Start¶
- Install:
npx skills add vercel/ai - Ask the agent to scaffold an agent loop: "build a TypeScript agent with
generateText+ tool calling per the bundled AI SDK docs" - For upgrades, invoke the migration skill: "migrate this project from AI SDK v6 to v7"
CorpusIQ Use Cases¶
| Use Case | How |
|---|---|
| Agent infrastructure | ToolLoopAgent and streaming patterns are reference architecture for CorpusIQ's own agent loops |
| Multi-provider routing | One unified API across providers maps directly onto our DeepSeek-primary, Claude-fallback model routing |
| Client delivery | Version-matched scaffolding for clients building LLM-powered products |
| Migration discipline | The v6→v7 playbook is a template for how we document breaking changes in our own stack |
Integration with CorpusIQ¶
CorpusIQ is the connector layer that lets AI assistants read the systems a business already runs on - accounting, payments, CRM, email, files and analytics - and answer with the source named. It is read-only by design: it retrieves data and never writes to, or acts in, a connected system, which is what makes it safe to point at live accounts.
This page is part of the CorpusIQ directory, the reference we maintain for the MCP server and agent-skill ecosystem. Run alongside CorpusIQ, a third-party server like this one can be combined with a company's own business data in a single answer.
Limitations / Verification¶
- Security audits on ai-sdk: Gen Agent Trust Hub Pass, Socket Pass, Snyk Warn - trusted with the audit named
- Publisher-page install counts verified (48.0K ai-sdk); GitHub 26.2K stars
- island-rescue shows 9 installs - experimental content, ignore it
- Skills assume a Next.js/Vercel-adjacent stack; React hooks guidance is client-framework-specific
npx skills add vercel/ai # verify install works
