## Overview
Vercel deployments and builds cover the full lifecycle from source changes to production releases with automated previews and rollback controls.
## Deployments
- Use preview deployments for every branch or pull request.
- Promote deployments to production when ready.
- Configure deployment retention where needed.
## Builds
- Define build settings per project.
- Use the Build Output API for custom build output.
- Review build logs for failures.
## Release Controls
- Use release phases for controlled rollouts.
- Use instant rollback when a deployment causes regressions.
- Add deployment checks for quality gates.
## Automation
- Trigger deployments with deploy hooks.
- Add a deploy button for fast deploys.
## Complementary Skills
When using this skill, consider these related skills (if deployed):
- **vercel-functions-runtime**: Functions and runtime behavior for deployments.
- **vercel-networking-domains**: Domains, routing, and CDN behavior.
- **vercel-observability**: Logs and tracing for deployment issues.
*Note: Complementary skills are optional. This skill is fully functional without them.*

azure-enterprise-infra-planner
microsoft/azure-skills
Architect and provision enterprise Azure infrastructure from workload descriptions. For cloud architects and platform engineers planning networking, identity, security, compliance, and multi-resource topologies with WAF alignment. Generates Bicep or Terraform directly (no azd). WHEN: 'plan Azure infrastructure', 'architect Azure landing zone', 'design hub-spoke network', 'plan multi-region DR topology', 'set up VNets firewalls and private endpoints', 'subscription-scope Bicep deployment', 'Azure Backup for VM workloads'. PREFER azure-prepare FOR app-centric workflows.
azure-kubernetes-app-deploy
microsoft/azure-skills
Use when deploying an existing web application or API to an already-running Azure Kubernetes Service cluster. Detects the framework, generates a Dockerfile and Kubernetes manifests, validates against AKS Deployment Safeguards, and deploys with verification. WHEN: deploy app to AKS, deploy to existing AKS cluster, containerize app for Kubernetes, generate K8s manifests for Azure, set up CI/CD for AKS, my AKS deployment is failing safeguard checks, I have a Django/Express/Spring Boot app to run on AKS. DO NOT USE FOR: creating or provisioning an AKS cluster (use azure-kubernetes), assessing migration to AKS Automatic (use azure-kubernetes-automatic-readiness), or deploying to non-AKS targets like Web Apps, Container Apps, or Functions.
finetuning
microsoft/azure-skills
Fine-tune models on Microsoft Foundry using SFT (supervised), DPO (preference), or RFT (reinforcement with graders). Covers dataset preparation, training job submission, deployment, and evaluation. USE FOR: fine-tune, SFT, DPO, RFT, training data, grader, distillation, fine-tuned model, training job, large file upload, calibrate grader, deploy fine-tuned model, evaluate fine-tuned model. DO NOT USE FOR: general model deployment without fine-tuning (use deploy-model), agent creation (use agents), prompt optimization without training (use prompt-optimizer).
