Vercel Agent (alert validation)
Vercel Agent now investigates monitor alerts and forwards only Critical ones to paging tools such as incident.io.
Overview
On October 26, 2026 Vercel added alert validation to Vercel Agent. With validation enabled on a webhook destination such as incident.io, Agent checks logs and metrics for each Vercel monitor alert to assess customer impact and only forwards those it classifies as Critical. For example, it can dismiss health-check errors that do not affect customers while confirming sustained 5xx errors on checkout. Enable it with Critical Only in a monitor's notification settings or with vercel monitors notifications --critical-only. It requires a Pro or Enterprise plan with Observability Plus.
