Vercel Container Registry now supports 2 GB compressed image layers

Vercel Container Registry now accepts compressed image layers up to 2 GB, up from the previous 500 MB limit, while the total image size limit stays at 15 GB. Vercel said the higher per-layer cap lets developers push images with large toolchains or dependency sets without splitting them, citing custom Vercel Sandbox environments for coding-agent evaluations as a use case. Images can be built and pushed using Docker and the Vercel CLI.

Vercel Container Registry https://vercel.com/docs/container-registry now supports up to 2 GB per compressed image layer, up from 500 MB, allowing larger layers to be pushed without splitting them. The total image size limit remains 15 GB. The higher layer limit is useful for images with large toolchains or dependency sets, such as custom Vercel Sandbox https://vercel.com/docs/sandbox/concepts/images environments for coding-agent evaluations. With Docker and the Vercel CLI https://vercel.com/docs/cli installed, run these commands from the directory containing your Dockerfile: Read the Vercel Container Registry getting-started guide https://vercel.com/docs/container-registry/getting-started to build, push, and pull your first container image.
