Summary

Kernel is now a preset in Vercel's connector registry, so the connector is created by name instead of by MCP server URL.

What changed

In integrations/vercel/eve-extension.mdx:

  • Step 2 uses vercel connect create kernel --name kernel-mcp --connection-method mcp / vercel connect attach kernel/kernel-mcp, with a sentence on what the registry entry fills in and why the connection method is explicit.
  • Every mount snippet uses kernel/kernel-mcp (setup, project layout, connection override).
  • A Vercel CLI >= 58.8.0 prerequisite — that's where --connection-method landed.
  • A <Note> that connectors created before the registry entry keep their old UID and keep working.

Kernel's registry entry exposes two connection methods, mcp and api-key, with no default yet, so omitting the flag drops readers into an interactive prompt. Only mcp brokers the per-user OAuth the Connect path is documented around.

Matches the corresponding PRs on kernel/eve-extension and kernel/eve-connect-kernel.

Heads up: the Vercel check fails on this PR, but it fails on every PR in this repo including the last four merged ones — unrelated to these edits. Mintlify deploy and broken-links pass.


Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only changes to integration setup instructions; no runtime or security-sensitive code paths.

Overview
Updates the Eve extension integration guide so Vercel Connect setup follows Kernel’s registry preset instead of creating a connector from the MCP server URL.

Connector creation now uses vercel connect create kernel --name kernel-mcp --connection-method mcp and vercel connect attach kernel/kernel-mcp, with mount/override examples using connect: "kernel/kernel-mcp". The doc adds a Vercel CLI ≥ 58.8.0 prerequisite for --connection-method, dashboard steps that pick MCP in Connectors → Browse all, and a Note that pre-registry connectors (e.g. mcp.onkernel.com/eve-extension) still work unchanged.

`vercel connect create kernel` pre-fills the MCP URL, auth type, and
branding, and yields a `kernel/<name>` UID. Update the setup commands and
mount snippets, and note that pre-registry connectors keep working.

Vercel's CLI 58.8.0 adds --connection-method. Kernel's registry entry
offers both mcp and api-key, and only mcp brokers the per-user OAuth the
extension's Connect path expects.

Stale comment

Risk assessment: Very Low

Verdict: Very Low risk — prior approval remains valid (not re-approved).

Re-evaluation after synchronize

This automation previously approved commit eccd756. Head is now 164906e. Re-assessed the full base…head diff and the delta since approval.

Delta since approval (still docs-only in the same file):

  • Prerequisite note for Vercel CLI >= 58.8.0 / --connection-method
  • Recommended connector name eve-extensionkernel-mcp
  • Create/attach examples add --connection-method mcp and use kernel/kernel-mcp
  • Copy clarifies choosing mcp over api-key for per-user OAuth

Evidence (from diff only)

  • 1 file changed: integrations/vercel/eve-extension.mdx (+12 / −7)
  • Documentation-only MDX updates to Vercel Connect setup commands, CLI version note, and example connect UIDs
  • No runtime code, config, CI, infrastructure, or schema changes
  • No CODEOWNERS file requiring ownership review

Risk factors checked

Factor Assessment
Codepaths / blast radius Docs page only; no production logic
Complexity Trivial command/string updates in examples
Infra / security None (docs describe auth setup; no auth code changed)
User-facing surface Developer docs copy/examples only

Risk change: None — remains Very Low. Approval is not dismissed and is not re-issued.

This automation previously approved commit eccd756 and last assessed 164906e as Very Low. Head is now 533031f. Re-assessed the full base…head diff and the delta since the last assessment.

Delta since last assessment (still docs-only in the same file):

  • Reformatted the Connect setup explanation from a dense paragraph into a lead-in plus bullets (registry autofill, --connection-method mcp vs api-key, dashboard path, UID confirmation)

Evidence (from diff only)

  • 1 file changed: integrations/vercel/eve-extension.mdx (+17 / −7)
  • Documentation-only MDX updates to Vercel Connect setup commands, CLI version prerequisite, example connect UIDs, and a compatibility note for pre-registry connectors
  • No runtime code, config, CI, infrastructure, or schema changes
  • No CODEOWNERS file requiring ownership review
