Walkthrough

This pull request adds two documentation sections to the Vercel integration guide. The first is a "Quickstart" note inserted in the "How it works" section, reminding readers to complete the Quickstart guide before proceeding, including the creation of trigger.config.ts. The second is a new "Required Trigger Config" section that explains the mandatory presence of trigger.config.ts at the repository root, displays the error message that appears when it's missing, and describes how to specify an alternate configuration directory through Trigger.dev build settings.

🟡 Broken documentation link: /quickstart should be /quick-start

The new <Note> links to /quickstart, but the actual page file is docs/quick-start.mdx and the navigation in docs/docs.json:26 lists it as "quick-start". There is no redirect from /quickstart to /quick-start in the redirects section of docs/docs.json:618-747. Other docs that link to this page use the correct /quick-start path (e.g., docs/introduction.mdx:9 uses href="/quick-start" and docs/guides/ai-agents/claude-code-trigger.mdx:14 uses /quick-start). This will result in a 404 for users clicking the link.

Suggested change

🚩 Error message in 'Required Trigger Config' section may not match actual CLI output

The error message shown at docs/vercel-integration.mdx:103 (Error: The trigger config file was not found. By default, we look for a trigger.config.ts file in the root of your repository.) appears to be a paraphrased/fabricated error message rather than one copied from the actual CLI or build system. I was unable to find this exact string in the codebase. If a user encounters a different error message in practice, this could cause confusion. However, the general guidance is correct — a missing trigger.config.ts will cause build failures.
