The specialist-subagent pattern forced every /add-vercel user through the
OneCLI credential-assignment plumbing (dynamically created Frontend Engineer
agents had no Vercel secret on first deploy). For a personal assistant the
isolation wasn't worth the complexity — the host agent can deploy to Vercel
directly using the same CLI.
- Remove the Phase 5 CLAUDE.md patch that forbade writing frontend code
- Drop the bundled frontend-engineer container skill
- Strip the HARD RULE + "Building Websites" delegation from vercel-cli
- Add a concise "Pre-Send Checks" section: local build, deployment READY,
live URL returns 2xx, optional agent-browser visual check
Net: -194 lines. /add-vercel now installs the CLI, registers the secret,
assigns it to existing agents, and teaches the agent to verify before
sharing the URL. No subagent plumbing.
