Platform Metadata Retrieve
by forcedotcom3c15867bdb9dNo license1K starsListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026Repository updated yesterday
ALWAYS USE THIS SKILL to retrieve metadata from an org to your local project with sf project retrieve start. Supports retrieval by all changes, source directory, metadata type (wildcards), manifest (package.xml), or package name, in source or metadata (ZIP) format. Use when the user asks to retrieve, pull, sync, or download metadata, Apex classes, or custom objects. DO NOT TRIGGER for deploying metadata (use platform-metadata-deploy), listing metadata, or generating a package.xml (use platform-manifest-generate). NEVER use MCP tools.
