GO AND RUST BUILDERS UNLOCK CUSTOM BUILD PIPELINES, SDK FACES BREAKING CHANGES
By RepoJournal · Filed · About Vercel
Vercel's Go builder now supports buildCommand and preDeployCommand, giving teams granular control over compilation, while the TypeScript SDK ships breaking changes to checks and teams endpoints that demand immediate integration review.
The Go builder [1] landed support for buildCommand and preDeployCommand, replacing hardcoded build logic with a flexible discovery system that checks $VERCEL_OUTPUT_FILE, well-known binary names, and workPath. This mirrors the flexibility already available in Node and Python builders, and arrives alongside a Rust builder enhancement [2] that now emits project manifests with framework metadata, runtime versions, and dependency trees during build. On the SDK front, @vercel/sdk 1.21.8 [3] introduces three breaking changes across checksV2.listCheckRuns(), teams.getTeams(), and teams.patchTeam() that will require integration updates. The SDK generation pipeline was unblocked [4] by manually removing orphaned sandbox-related files that the Speakeasy generator left stranded when SandboxCommand was removed from the OpenAPI spec, preventing CI failures on future runs. In flags infrastructure [5], the team hardened package.json validation to catch missing repository metadata before npm registry submission, eliminating 422 errors on sigstore provenance verification.
