When to Use This Skill Use when automating post install configuration for any Salesforce managed package. This skill reads the package's post install documentation, discovers available execution methods, and automates the configuration steps — including permission sets, object/field permissions, page layouts, Visualforce page access, and tab settings. Input Required: Package name (e.g., LMA , FMA , work.com ) Optional: Path to post install doc (PDF, markdown, URL) If no doc is provided, ask the user to supply it. Workflow Execute phases in order. Each phase must pass before proceeding. Phase 1: Discover Available Execution Methods Priority order: 1. Org native platform MCP servers (highest — direct org access via Headless 360) 2. Claude Code external MCP servers (sf sobject all, sf sobject all sb, etc.) 3. sf CLI fallback (always available if authenticated) Step 1A: Resolve org API version Discover the org's current API version dynamically — never hardcode a version number: From the JSON response, read result.apiVersion (e.g., "67.0" ). Store this value and use it as v<apiVersion in all subsequent REST paths. If the command fails, fall back to the minApiVersion declared in this skill's metadata ( 67.0 ). Step 1B: Check for org native platform MCP servers Query the Tooling API for MCP server availability: Step 1C: Determine execution method Check which Claude Code MCP tools are available and authenticated. MCP tool prefixes by org type: Org Type Tool Prefix Production mcp sf sobject all Sandbox mcp sf sobject all sb Falcon Test (pc rnd) mcp sf sobject all falcon If MCP needs auth, call the authenticate tool. If auth fails, fall back to sf CLI. Phase 2: Verify Authentication & Org Identity 1. Run a lightweight test query ( SELECT Id, Name, IsSandbox FROM Organization ) 2. If MCP auth fails, automatically fall back to sf CLI 3. Display org info and ask user to confirm before proceeding Phase 3: Verify Package Installation 1. Determine the package namespace (ask user if unknown) 2. Check via Tooling API ( InstalledSubscriberPackage ) — do NOT use PackageLicense 3. If package not found, stop and inform user Phase 4: Read and Parse Post Install Document Read the provided document and extract discrete configuration steps. Supported formats: PDF, markdown, URL (via WebFetch), pasted text. Parsing approach: 1. Extract each numbered/bulleted step from the document 2. Present the extracted steps to the user for validation before proceeding Phase 5: Classify Steps & Interactive Plan Review For each step extracted from the doc, classify as Automated or Manual. Automation capabilities reference Via MCP (sobject all) or sf CLI CRUD: Record CRUD on any standard or custom object (PermissionSet, ObjectPermissions, FieldPermissions, SetupEntityAccess, PermissionSetTabSetting, PermissionSetAssignment, etc.) Via Metadata API retrieve/deploy (sf CLI): Page layout modifications (add related lists, fields, sections) Profile settings Custom metadata type records Via sf CLI Tooling API: Tooling queries (InstalledSubscriberPackage, ApexPage, ApexClass, etc.) Any REST accessible Tooling operation Manual (no API path — requires Setup UI): System permissions not exposed via REST Connected app OAuth configuration Environment Hub linkage Interactive approval Present the classified plan and let the user choose: "Approve all" — Execute all steps as planned "Let me choose" — Select which steps to approve/skip "I have questions" — Discuss specific steps before deciding Phase 6: Execute Approved Steps For each approved step, use the resolved execution method. Execution method reference Operation Via MCP Via sf CLI SOQL query soqlQuery tool sf data query query "<SOQL " target org <alias json Create record createSobjectRecord tool sf data create record sobject <Object values "..." target org <alias json Update record updateSobjectRecord tool sf data update record sobject <Object record id <id values "..." target org <alias json Describe object getObjectSchema tool sf api request rest "/services/data/v<apiVersion /sobjects/<Object /describe" target org <alias Page layout N/A Metadata API retrieve/deploy Page layout modifications via Metadata API Use sf project retrieve start → edit the layout XML → sf project deploy start . Execution rules Idempotency: Before creating any record, query to check if it already exists. Skip if so. Report after each step: Show success count, skipped items, and reasons. Automatic fallback: If MCP fails mid execution, retry via sf CLI. On failure: Report error, ask user to retry/skip/stop. Phase 7: Guide Manual Steps (if any) If any steps could not be automated, present each with Setup navigation instructions. Wait for user confirmation before proceeding to the next. Phase 8: Summary Display final summary with step by step status, method used, and any skipped items. Error Handling Auth failure mid execution: Stop, ask user to re auth, offer to resume Duplicate record errors: Treat as "already configured", skip and continue Permission errors: Report which permission is missing, suggest resolution Unknown step type: Ask user to clarify, offer to mark as manual Notes Priority: org native MCP Claude Code MCP sf CLI manual sf CLI is always a valid fallback for all CRUD and Tooling API operations Page layout modifications are automated via Metadata API retrieve/deploy Always verify org identity before making changes All actions respect the authenticated user's permissions
