1. Add Siere to your Vercel project

Find Siere on the Vercel Marketplace and click Add Integration. Select the project you want to connect.

This automatically sets SIERE_API_KEY and SIERE_SITE_ID on your Vercel project — no manual configuration needed.

2. Install the edge package

3. Add the middleware

Create or update your middleware file. AI agent requests get optimized content; human traffic passes through unchanged.

// middleware.ts
import { createSiereMiddleware } from '@siere/edge-vercel';

const siere = createSiereMiddleware();

export default async function middleware(request: Request) {
  const response = await siere(request);
  if (response) return response;
  // ... your existing middleware logic
}

No config needed — the middleware reads SIERE_API_KEY from your environment automatically.

4. Deploy and verify

Push your changes and check the health endpoint:

curl https://your-site.vercel.app/__aeo/health

Then test with an AI agent user-agent:

curl -H "User-Agent: GPTBot/1.0" https://your-site.vercel.app/
# Should return structured markdown instead of HTML

1. Get your API key

Sign up at siere.ai and create a site in your dashboard. Copy your API key from the setup page.

2. Install the package

3. Set environment variables

# .env.local
SIERE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

4. Add the middleware

// middleware.ts
import { createSiereMiddleware } from '@siere/edge-vercel';

const siere = createSiereMiddleware();

export default async function middleware(request: Request) {
  const response = await siere(request);
  if (response) return response;
  // ... your existing middleware logic
}

Alternative: Proxy Mode

If you want Siere to run as a standalone edge function in front of your site (instead of as middleware), use proxy mode. Set SIERE_ORIGIN_URL to your site's URL.

// .env.local
SIERE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
SIERE_ORIGIN_URL=https://your-site.com

// api/siere/route.ts
import { createSiereEdge } from '@siere/edge-vercel';

export const GET = createSiereEdge();
export const POST = createSiereEdge();

5. Deploy and verify

curl https://your-site.vercel.app/__aeo/health

Test with an AI agent:

curl -H "User-Agent: GPTBot/1.0" https://your-site.vercel.app/
# Should return structured markdown instead of HTML
