## What it does

This skill reads a managed package's post-install guide and turns it into discrete configuration steps. It checks the installed package through the Tooling API, shows a plan, and marks each action as automated or manual. You approve the whole plan or select individual steps.

For queries and record changes, it tries org-native MCP first, then Claude Code MCP tools, with `sf` CLI as the fallback. Before creating a record, it checks for an existing one. Page layout changes use Metadata API retrieve, XML edits, and deploy.

You need a package name and its post-install guide when you have one. An authenticated org is required for the `sf` CLI route, so verify access before approving the plan. The minimum API version is `67.0`.

## Requirements
- Works with: Salesforce

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill dx-pkg-post-install-configure -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill dx-pkg-post-install-configure -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill dx-pkg-post-install-configure -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install forcedotcom/sf-skills dx-pkg-post-install-configure
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill dx-pkg-post-install-configure -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills --path skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill dx-pkg-post-install-configure -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/dx-pkg-post-install-configure/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- configure a managed package after installation
- apply permission sets from package documentation
- set object and field permissions
- update page layouts through Metadata API
- separate Setup UI tasks from automatable steps

## Example prompts
- Configure post-install setup for `LMA`; here is the package guide.
- Check whether `FMA` is installed and prepare a plan for permission sets and FLS.
- Read this PDF with `work.com` post-install steps and run the approved actions.

## When to Use This Skill

Use when automating post-install configuration for any Salesforce managed package. This skill reads the package's post-install documentation, discovers available execution methods, and automates the configuration steps — including permission sets, object/field permissions, page layouts, Visualforce page access, and tab settings.

## Input

- **Required:** Package name (e.g., `LMA`, `FMA`, `work.com`)
- **Optional:** Path to post-install doc (PDF, markdown, URL)

If no doc is provided, ask the user to supply it.

## Workflow

Execute phases in order. Each phase must pass before proceeding.

---

### Phase 1: Discover Available Execution Methods

**Priority order:**
1. Org-native platform MCP servers (highest — direct org access via Headless 360)
2. Claude Code external MCP servers (sf-sobject-all, sf-sobject-all-sb, etc.)
3. sf CLI fallback (always available if authenticated)

#### Step 1A: Resolve org API version

Discover the org's current API version dynamically — never hardcode a version number:

```bash
sf org display --target-org <alias> --json
```

From the JSON response, read `result.apiVersion` (e.g., `"67.0"`). Store this value and use it as `v<apiVersion>` in all subsequent REST paths. If the command fails, fall back to the `minApiVersion` declared in this skill's metadata (`67.0`).

#### Step 1B: Check for org-native platform MCP servers

Query the Tooling API for MCP server availability:

```bash
sf api request rest "/services/data/v<apiVersion>/tooling/query?q=SELECT+Id,DeveloperName,MasterLabel+FROM+McpServerAccess" --target-org <alias>
```

#### Step 1C: Determine execution method

Check which Claude Code MCP tools are available and authenticated.

**MCP tool prefixes by org type:**
