# AI, MCP, Data 360 and editor tools

Generated with `reference/overview/tools.md`, from the same registry and checks.

## AI coding agents and MCP

<!-- registry:ai -->
| Tool | Use it for | Get it | Checked version | Used in |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [Salesforce Skills Library (sf-skills)](https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills) | Salesforce's skills for AI coding agents: agentforce-generate, -test, -observe, Data 360, Apex, Flow, LWC and 200 more. Auto-installed in Agentforce Vibes | `npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills` | 1.66.0 (2026-10-16) | `guides/data360/automate-the-golden-record-pipeline.md` +4 |
| [Salesforce DX MCP server (local)](https://github.com/salesforcecli/mcp) | Local MCP server (60+ tools) using your CLI logins | `npx -y @salesforce/mcp --orgs DEFAULT_TARGET_ORG` | 0.30.15 (2026-07-09) — **end of life 2026-11-02 (README); npm not marked deprecated** | — |
| [Salesforce Hosted MCP Servers](https://github.com/forcedotcom/mcp-hosted) | MCP servers run by your org (records, Data 360 SQL, Prompt Builder, custom tools). Per-user OAuth with PKCE through an ECA, scopes `mcp_api` and `refresh_token`; enabled in Setup; billed in Flex Credits | Setup (Developer Edition includes them) | HEAD 7c962c7c2f54 | `reference/orgs/orgs-and-editions.md` |
| [Agentforce Vibes](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/ai/agentforce/guide/agent-dx-set-up-env.html) | Salesforce's AI coding agent: a VS Code extension (`salesforce.salesforcedx-einstein-gpt`, formerly Agentforce for Developers) and a browser IDE opened from Setup (formerly Code Builder) | VS Code Marketplace or Open VSX; the IDE from Setup | — | `reference/orgs/orgs-and-editions.md` |
<!-- /registry:ai -->

- **The local DX MCP server ends on November 2, 2026.** Its README says so, but npm doesn't mark the package deprecated. Don't build new setups on it. The CLI, the sf-skills library and Hosted MCP Servers remain. Hosted MCP Servers run in the org and are billed in Flex Credits.
- **sf-skills is Salesforce's own guidance for AI coding agents** (its setup page points Cursor and Claude Code at it). Its `agentforce-generate` skill matches this hub on `access`, `else if` and nested `if`. It still shows `source: @session.sessionID`, which the linter rejects (`reference/agentforce/agent-script.md`).

## Data 360

<!-- registry:data360 -->
| Tool | Use it for | Get it | Checked version | Used in |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [sf-plugin-data360 (community)](https://github.com/dsouza-anush/sf-plugin-data360) | 135 `data360` CLI commands over the Data 360 Connect and tenant APIs (query, ingest, streams, mappings, identity resolution, insights, search indexes, data kits). Experimental beta by an individual author, not Salesforce; its source maps endpoint paths | `sf plugins install @anushdsouza/sf-plugin-data360@0.1.2` | 0.1.2 (2026-08-07) — **community beta** | `guides/data360/automate-the-golden-record-pipeline.md` +6 |
| [Data 360 Connect API reference (OpenAPI)](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/data/connectapi/references/spec) | The official reference for every /ssot operation (about 201 at v67, per a community audit). It renders only in a browser; download the OpenAPI document from it | developer.salesforce.com/docs/data/connectapi/references/spec | — | `reference/data360/automation-and-data-kits.md` |
| [Data 360 Connect API Postman collection](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/data/connectapi/guide/postman-collection.html) | Salesforce Developers' Postman collection for querying and creating, updating, deleting and running Data 360 objects | Fork from the Salesforce Developers Postman workspace | — | — |
<!-- /registry:data360 -->

- No official `sf` plugin manages Data 360 setup. Script the Connect API (`guides/data360/automate-the-golden-record-pipeline.md`) or use data kits (`reference/data360/automation-and-data-kits.md`).

## Editors

<!-- registry:editors -->
| Tool | Use it for | Get it | Checked version | Used in |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [Salesforce Extension Pack (`salesforce.salesforcedx-vscode`)](https://github.com/forcedotcom/salesforcedx-vscode) | VS Code extensions: Apex, LWC, SOQL, org browser, Apex Replay Debugger, and Agentforce DX (`salesforce.salesforcedx-vscode-agents`) with the Agent Script language server (`salesforce.agent-script-language-client`) | VS Code Marketplace or Open VSX | 68.6.0 | `reference/agentforce/agent-observability.md` |
