SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Managing Salesforce org lifecycle tasks by hand is slow, error-prone, and repetitive. This Skill turns common org operations into a guided workflow so you can create scratch orgs, create snapshots, and open orgs without memorizing CLI details.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scratch Org Creation: Builds scratch orgs from a definition file, edition, snapshot, or org shape with the right Dev Hub checks and optional flags.
  • Snapshot Management: Creates point-in-time snapshots from scratch orgs and returns structured results for downstream automation.
  • Org Opening: Opens a default or specific org, navigates to a path, or launches a metadata file in the correct Salesforce builder.
  • Use Case: A developer needs a new scratch org for feature work, a snapshot for reuse in CI, and a direct link to a setup page; this Skill handles all three workflows consistently.

Quick Start

Ask the dx-org-manage skill to create the required Salesforce scratch org or open the specified org using the correct Dev Hub, alias, and JSON output rules.
