Check and remediate a domain's DNS configuration and project verification state from a repository workflow.
REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS
- Version: 54.15.0
- <domain> (required): Domain to check; the docs use `example.com`.
- --project <project>: Select a project by name or ID.
- --strict: Enforce exact matching; detailed matching behavior is not specified on the cited page.
- --format json: Return the full diagnosis in JSON, including status, reason, recommended records, conflicts, and suggested next commands.
- Prerequisite: Install Vercel CLI with `pnpm i -g vercel`.
- Prerequisite: The changelog says to upgrade to CLI 54.15.1 to use the command.
- Automatic configuration and its Domain Connect URL are available only to eligible domains.
- Manual DNS guidance is provided as a fallback.
- Non-interactive runs emit structured status, simultaneous issue details, automatic-configuration metadata, and shell-safe, context-preserving next commands.
- The command exits non-zero when action is required.
- Docs conflict: The card identifies version 54.15.0, while Vercel’s changelog says to upgrade to 54.15.1 to get started. The cited docs do not resolve this version difference.
