# `cwd`

This option specifies the path to the project's root directory.

::: info
By default, it uses the value obtained from [`process.cwd()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v20.x/api/process.html#processcwd).
:::

::: tip For users with a monorepo
When using a pnpm workspace or similar setup, running actions-vercel with each project's directory specified in `cwd` may prevent dependencies from being installed correctly. For details, see [Using a monorepo](/guide/monorepo.md).
