In this announcement from Feb 4 [image] Vercel [image] Introducing the new v0 - Vercel The new v0 brings production-ready AI coding to enterprises with git workflows, security, and real integrations. Ship faster with agents and teams. The announcement says: Work on existing codebases Instead o…

Hey @jacob-8441 , welcome to the community! :slight_smile: Next to the New Chat button, there is a dropdown arrow, where you can select Import from GitHub. [image]

@mayven thanks I’m not sure that is what I’m looking for though. I’m not trying to import a repo. I want to have a buy directional set up where Leo is connected to my repo can create branches actively so I’m not importing my repo. I’m connecting it to my repo. Can I do that?

@jacob-8441 you can indeed, when you go through the Import from GitHub flow, you can connect it to your existing repo. Once connected, each new v0 chat creates a dedicated branch off main so you can make changes in isolation, then once ready you can open the PR from v0. [Screenshot 2026-02-18 at …

Thanks @mayven - unfortunately it appears I’m getting errors here. Here I am going to connect, create a new project (in our v0 team account.) [Screenshot 2026-02-18 at 10.49.23 AM] it’s confusing to me why we are doing this setup… [Screenshot 2026-02-18 at 10.50.33 AM] More setup…. [Screens…

Thanks for the info and screenshots, that’s helpful. Before this, did you have your project deployed to Vercel already, outside of v0?

@mayven not in this team account. But to be honest I’m not sure. This project I am creating in my screenshot is 100% new, I am choosing the ‘create new project’ option on the funnel. Also, if I go to our older, existing vercel account, and hit the button to launch v0, I see the same thing: [Scree…

It looks like the Git connection / import was successful, but the previews aren’t initialising successfully. They look like different errors on the different chats, so it’s difficult to know the source of the errors without the full context. However, you can try the Fix with v0 button to see if it …

@mayven Yes so thats’ the problem, I’m hesitant to ‘fix’ errors on our repo…since, in theory our repo works fine. Again, maybe I’m missing something here. My assumption is we can hook v0 up to our repo, have it cut a branch, do some excellent interfaces, and then have that pulled back in and integra…

[Screenshot 2026-02-18 at 11.38.20 AM] @mayven here is one random example, but they are all similar, basically v0 is expecting, I believe some core structures in my repo, an so when it doesn’t find them, it errors out…

@mayven I think this may be the root of the problem or at least one of the problems: This is a hard limitation of the v0 environment that I need to surface honestly. **The v0 build pipeline requires the Next.js app root at the repository root (/).** The build system runs next dev / next build fro…

Still working on this, trying now to create a branch that is ‘v0’ friendly but that is proving to be a huge challenge in and of itself….
