Overview of the Salesforce DX MCP Server (Developer Preview)

The Salesforce DX MCP Server is a specialized Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementation designed to facilitate seamless interaction between large language models (LLMs) and Salesforce orgs. This MCP server provides a robust set of tools and capabilities that enable LLMs to read, manage, and operate Salesforce resources securely.

Key Features:

• Direct interaction with Salesforce orgs through LLM-driven tools.
• Secure access using TypeScript libraries (not shelling out to the sf Salesforce CLI).
• Improved security by avoiding the exposure of secrets in plain text.
• Granular access control with org allowlisting.
• Modular tool architecture for easy extensibility.

NOTE: The Salesforce DX MCP Server is available as a developer preview. The feature isn’t generally available unless or until Salesforce announces its general availability in documentation or in press releases or public statements. All commands, parameters, and other features are subject to change or deprecation at any time, with or without notice. Don't implement functionality developed with these commands or tools. As we continue to enhance and refine the implementation, the available functionality and tools may evolve. We welcome feedback and contributions to help shape the future of this project.

Security Features

The Salesforce DX MCP Server was designed with security as a top priority.

• Uses TypeScript libraries directly

  • Greatly decreases the size of the MCP Server.
  • Significantly reduces the risk of remote code execution (RCE).

• No secrets needed in configuration

  • Eliminates the risk of plain text secret exposure.
  • Accesses pre-existing (encrypted) auth files on the user's machine.
  • Implements allowlisting for auth info key/values to prevent sensitive data exposure.

• No secrets exposed via MCP tools

  • Prevents other tools from accessing unencrypted tokens.
  • Tools pass usernames around instead of tokens.

• Granular access control

  • MCP Server can access auth info for only orgs that have been explicitly allowlisted.
  • Users specify allowed orgs when starting the server.

Agentforce for Developers Includes the Salesforce DX MCP Server

Agentforce for Developers is an AI-powered Salesforce developer tool that's available as an easy-to-install Visual Studio Code (VS Code) extension. It includes Dev Agent (developer preview), an intelligent coding partner that provides information and, most importantly, can take action. Through agentic chat powered by MCP, Dev Agent can execute commands and perform complex workflows automatically, right from within VS Code.

The Salesforce DX MCP server is pre-configured in Agentforce for Developers, so you can start using the DX MCP tools immediately after you install the extension in VS Code.

See Set Up Agentforce for Developers and Chat with Dev Agent (Dev Preview) for more information.

Get Started Using VS Code as the Client

Want to jump in and see what all the fuss is about? Read on!

This example uses Visual Studio Code (VS Code) as the MCP client. After you configure it with the Salesforce DX MCP Server, you then use GitHub Copilot and natural language to easily execute typical Salesforce DX development tasks, such as listing your authorized orgs, viewing org records, and deploying or retrieving metadata.

But you're not limited to using only VS Code and Copilot as the MCP client! As already mentioned, you can use Agentforce for Developers, which is pre-configured with the DX MCP server. Or you can configure many other clients to use the Salesforce DX MCP Server, such as Cursor, Cline, Claude Desktop, Zed, Windsurf, and more.

Before You Begin

For the best getting-started experience, make sure that you have a Salesforce DX environment set up on your computer. In particular:

• Install Salesforce CLI on your computer.
• Install VS Code on your computer.
• Create a Salesforce DX project and open it in VS Code. You can also clone an example repo, such as dreamhouse-lwc, which is a ready-to-use DX project that contains a simple Salesforce application, with metadata and test data.
• Authorize at least one Salesforce org to use with your DX project. You can also create a scratch org.

Let's Do It

1. Create a .vscode/mcp.json file at the root of your DX project and add this JSON:

   json

   {  "servers": {    "Salesforce DX": {      "type": "stdio",      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@salesforce/mcp", "--orgs", "DEFAULT_TARGET_ORG", "--toolsets", "all"]    }  }}

   You can also configure the MCP server globally by editing the VS Code settings.json file and adding a similar JSON snippet but contained in an mcp:servers section.

   The --orgs flag is required and specifies the authorized orgs you're allowing the MCP server to access. The --toolsets and --tools flags are used to specify which tools the server will start with. See Configure the DX MCP Server for the available values for these flags.

2. Open VS Code, go to View -> Command Palette and enter MCP: List Servers.

   TIP: You can also get to the command palette by pressing press Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows or Linux) or Command-Shift-P (macOS).

3. Click Salesforce DX, then Start Server.

   Check the Output tab for the server status.

4. Run Chat: Open Chat (Agent) from the command palette to start a new GitHub Copilot chat session.

   Be sure your Copilot chat window is in Agent mode; if you're in Ask or Edit mode, use the little drop-down to switch.

5. In the GitHub Copilot chat window, use natural language to explain what you want to do. The MCP server determines which configured tool to use, and then shows it to you along with other information. Click Continue to run the tool and see the results of your request.

   Try out these examples:

   • List all my orgs.
   • Which are my active scratch orgs?
   • Show me all the accounts in the org with alias my-org.
   • Deploy everything in my project to the org with alias my-org.
   • Do you see any performance or security issues with the Apex code in the MyApexClass.cls file?
   • I see that my Apex code violates the pmd:ApexCRUDViolation rule; can you give me more information about this rule?

6. To stop, restart, or view the MCP server configuration, run the MCP: List Servers command, click Salesforce DX, then click the appropriate option.

Installing via Smithery

To install salesforce-mcp-kodey automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @kodey-ai/salesforce-mcp-kodey

Configure the DX MCP Server

Configure the Salesforce DX MCP Server by passing flags to the args option. Surround the flag name and its value each in double quotes, and separate all flags and values with commas. Some flags are Boolean and don't take a value.

This example shows two flags that take a string value (--orgs and --toolsets) and one Boolean flag (--allow-non-ga-tools):

     "servers": {       "Salesforce DX": {         "type": "stdio",         "command": "npx",         "args": ["-y", "@salesforce/mcp", "--orgs", "DEFAULT_TARGET_ORG", "--toolsets", "all", "--allow-non-ga-tools"]       }     }

The "-y", "@salesforce/mcp" part tells npx to automatically install the @salesforce/mcp package instead of asking permission. Don't change this.

These are the available flags that you can pass to the args option.

Configure Orgs

The Salesforce MCP tools require an org, and so you must include the required --orgs flag to specify at least one authorized org when you configure the MCP server. Separate multiple values with commas.

You must explicitly authorize the orgs on your computer before the MCP server can access them. Use the org login web Salesforce CLI command or the VS Code SFDX: Authorize an Org command from the command palette.

These are the available values for the --orgs flag:

• DEFAULT_TARGET_ORG - Allow access to your default org. If you've set a local default org in your DX project, the MCP server uses it. If not, the server uses a globally-set default org.
• DEFAULT_TARGET_DEV_HUB - Allow access to your default Dev Hub org. If you've set a local default Dev Hub org in your DX project, the MCP server uses it. If not, the server uses a globally-set default Dev Hub org.
• ALLOW_ALL_ORGS - Allow access to all authorized orgs. Use this value with caution.
• <username or alias> - Allow access to a specific org by specifying its username or alias.

This example shows how to specify that the MCP tools run against your default org when you configure the MCP server for VS Code:

       "servers": {         "Salesforce DX": {           "type": "stdio",           "command": "npx",           "args": ["-y", "@salesforce/mcp", "--orgs", "DEFAULT_TARGET_ORG"]         }       }

This sample snippet shows how to configure access to your default Dev Hub org and an org with username [email protected]:

           "args": ["-y", "@salesforce/mcp", "--orgs", "DEFAULT_TARGET_DEV_HUB,[email protected]"]

This sample snippet shows how to configure access to two orgs for which you specified aliases when you authorized them:

           "args": ["-y", "@salesforce/mcp", "--orgs", "my-scratch-org,my-dev-hub"]

Configure Toolsets

The Salesforce DX MCP Server supports toolsets - a way to selectively enable different groups of MCP tools based on your needs. This allows you to run the MCP server with only the tools you require, which in turn reduces the context.

Use the --toolsets flag to specify the toolsets when you configure the Salesforce DX MCP Server. Separate multiple toolsets with commas. Set --toolsets to all to register every available toolset.

These are the available toolsets.

This example shows how to enable the data, orgs, metadata, and other toolsets when configuring the MCP server for VS Code:

       "servers": {         "Salesforce DX": {           "type": "stdio",           "command": "npx",           "args": ["-y", "@salesforce/mcp", "--orgs", "DEFAULT_TARGET_ORG", "--toolsets", "data,orgs,metadata,other"]         }       }

Configure Tools

The Salesforce DX MCP Server also supports registering individual tools. This can be used in combination with toolsets to further fine-tune registered tools.

Use the --tools flag to enable specific tools when you configure the Salesforce DX MCP Server. Separate multiple tools with commas. The --tools flag is optional.

This example shows how to enable the orgs and metadata toolsets, as well as the run_soql_query and run_apex_test tools when configuring the MCP server for VS Code:

       "servers": {         "Salesforce DX": {           "type": "stdio",           "command": "npx",           "args": [              "-y",              "@salesforce/mcp",               "--orgs",               "DEFAULT_TARGET_ORG",               "--toolsets",              "orgs,metadata"              "--tools",              "run_soql_query,run_apex_test"            ]         }       }
