When we released the CLI, we said we were hard at work on deploy. It's ready for you to use today: clerk deploy is now available in the Clerk CLI, taking your application from development to production with a single command.

Run clerk deploy from a linked project and the CLI walks you through everything production needs:

• Production instance: Creates a production instance from your development configuration and prompts for your production domain

• DNS records: Displays the CNAME records to add at your DNS provider, and can export them as a DNS zone file you can import at any compatible provider

• OAuth credentials: Detects the social connections enabled in development and prompts for production Google and Apple credentials, including importing a Google Cloud Console JSON file or pointing at your Apple .p8 key. Other providers are flagged for setup in the Clerk Dashboard

• Verification: Checks DNS, SSL, and email DNS in one loop and reports exactly what's still pending

Built for agents

In a non-TTY context, or with --mode agent, clerk deploy emits a read-only JSON handoff describing the current deploy state instead of prompting.
