What it does
Feature Branch is an agent skill from forcedotcom/salesforcedx-vscode. Create feature branches for all work. Use when creating branches, checking out, or pushing. Prevents accidental pushes to protected branches.
Its SKILL.md is about 180 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Salesforce Extensions for VS Code. The licence is BSD-3-Clause.
When your agent uses it
- Creating branches
Example prompts
- “/feature-branch”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 27807f6. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Feature Branch loads about 182 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 34 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
The full file from forcedotcom/salesforcedx-vscode at commit 27807f6, republished under its BSD-3-Clause licence (© forcedotcom). 34 words, ~182 tokens.

Branch
Resolve ownerPrefix via gus-cli runner identity.
Format: <ownerPrefix>/W-XXXXX-short-description.
Example for Shane McLaughlin (ownerPrefix = sm):
git fetch origin develop
git checkout -b sm/W-XXXXX-short-description origin/develop --no-track
# ... work, commit ...
git push -u origin sm/W-XXXXX-short-descriptionNever omit --no-track off origin/develop — bare git push could push develop.
