Vercel CLI with Tokens

Deploy and manage projects on Vercel using the CLI with token-based authentication, without relying on vercel login.

Step 1: Locate the Vercel Token

Before running any Vercel CLI commands, identify where the token is coming from. Work through these scenarios in order:

A) VERCEL_TOKEN is already set in the environment

test -n "${VERCEL_TOKEN:-}" && echo "VERCEL_TOKEN is set"

If this returns a value, you're ready. Skip to Step 2.

B) Token is already managed by the project environment
