Summary
Vercel published a June 19 guide for building AI agents with AI Gateway and AI SDK, positioning its agent stack around model routing, OIDC authentication, tool loops, code execution in Sandbox, third-party access through Connect, and durable runs through Workflow. The guide turns Vercel's separate AI products into a clearer full-stack agent workflow.
What changed
Vercel updated its knowledge base with an agent-building guide that connects AI Gateway, AI SDK, Sandbox, Vercel Connect, Chat SDK, and Workflow SDK into one developer path.
Why it matters
The guide makes Vercel's agent infrastructure easier to adopt by showing how routing, credentials, sandboxed execution, chat surfaces, and durable workflows fit together. This is important because agent platforms increasingly compete on operational completeness, not just model access.
Evidence excerpt
The Vercel guide is marked Last updated June 19, 2026 and says AI Gateway provides a single endpoint and credentials while AI SDK provides primitives for agent loops.
