Vercel CLI expands with DNS, domain, and project management commands
Vercel CLI v59.6.2 adds dedicated commands for managing DNS records, domains, and project settings — pulling functionality that previously required the dashboard into the terminal.
What changed. The new vercel dns command lets you inspect and update individual DNS records by ID, including name, type, value, TTL, and MX/SRV fields. vercel domains adds on-demand domain renewal and auto-renewal toggling, with confirmation prompts before billing. For projects, the CLI now supports pausing/resuming, enabling/disabling Web Analytics and Speed Insights, and managing project members with role assignment. All commands support structured JSON output for scripting and agents. Destructive actions require explicit confirmation.
Why a builder cares. This closes a longstanding gap — nearly every Vercel management operation is now scriptable from the terminal without reaching for the API or dashboard. For anyone automating infrastructure (or building agents that manage deployments), these commands mean one less context switch.
