Tools

Salesforce's official plugin that helps service admins configure Service Cloud web chat, messaging, WhatsApp and Email-to-Case channels, connect Agentforce service agents to them and set up handoff to humans. Needs Salesforce org admin rights, a logged-in Salesforce CLI (sf) and Python.

Salesforce's official skill that sets up Service Cloud Omni-Channel routing from the CLI instead of Setup clicks: agent and supervisor users, queues, presence statuses, permissions and routing flows. Read-only preview; writes only to sandbox, trial or dev orgs. Needs Service Cloud, sf and jq.

Community-run local Salesforce MCP: query, summarize and update accounts, opportunities and cases in plain language and search across objects; admins can also create custom objects and fields and edit Apex. Needs Salesforce login and security token (or a Connected App) and Node.js 22+.

Salesforce's official hosted MCP servers: after an admin enables them in Setup with an OAuth external client app, agents can query and update CRM records and run Flows under the user's permissions. Needs Enterprise Edition or higher, or a free Developer Edition org. Repo holds docs and Q&A.
