Salesforce CLI plugin
setup-agents
Bootstrap AI agent rules for any Salesforce project in seconds.
Personal open-source project by Jaime Terrats. Not an official Salesforce product.
One command. 5 AI tools. Twenty-two role profiles.
setup-agents configures Cursor, GitHub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, Anthropic Claude Code, and Agentforce Vibes with role-aware rules so every AI assistant in your team has the same architectural context.

What it configures
Features
Auto-Detection
Detects installed tools (.cursor/, .vscode/, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .a4drules/) and active profiles (cgcloud__, WaveDashboard, DataStream, Playwright) automatically.
Role Profiles
10 combinable profiles — Developer, Architect, BA, MuleSoft, UX, CGCloud, DevOps, QA, CRMA, Data Cloud. Each generates its own rule file.
Sub-agent Protocol
Generates sub-agent-protocol.mdc — a routing manifest mapping task types to responsible roles across your whole team.
Agentforce Workflows
Creates .a4drules/workflows/ files invokable via /[workflow.md] in chat — deploy, run-tests, validate, create-apex-class, ADR, and more.
MCP Integration
sf setup-agents mcp wires @salesforce/mcp into Cursor for direct metadata, Apex, and sObject access from any org.
Auto-update
sf setup-agents update detects stale rule files (version mismatch) and regenerates only what's outdated — including workflow files.
Extension Recommendations
Writes .vscode/extensions.json combining base Salesforce extensions with profile-specific tools for every team member.
VS Code Extension
A sidebar UI for teams that prefer point-and-click over terminal — configure profiles, connect orgs, and manage rules visually.
Safe by Default
Never overwrites existing files without --force. Every file embeds a version token enabling precise staleness detection.
