What it does

Integration Connectivity Generate is an agent skill from forcedotcom/sf-skills. Salesforce integration architecture and runtime plumbing with 120-point scoring. Use this skill to set up Named Credentials, External Credentials, External Services, REST/SOAP callout patterns, Platform Events, and Change Data Capture. TRIGGER when: user sets up Named Credentials, External Services, REST/SOAP callouts, Platform Events, CDC, or touches .namedCredential-meta.xml files. DO NOT TRIGGER when: Connected App/OAuth config (use integration-connectivity-connected-app-configure), Apex-only logic (use…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 54 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `README.md` and `assets/external-services/external-service-operations.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering CRM management, Third-party API integration and OAuth and OpenID Connect. It works with Salesforce. The repository describes itself as: Salesforce's curated collection of agent skills for building applications. Optimized for Agentforce Vibes, compatible with all AI tools. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Set up Named Credentials
  • External Credentials
  • External Services
  • REST/SOAP callout patterns

Example prompts

  • “/integration-connectivity-generate”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Choose the integration pattern
  2. Choose the auth model
  3. Generate from the right templates
  4. Validate operational safety
  5. Hand off deployment or implementation details

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e5164d9. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Integration Connectivity Generate loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~36k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 192 tokens; SKILL.md has 684 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~192
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~36k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

integration-connectivity-generate: Salesforce Integration Patterns Expert

Use this skill when the user needs integration architecture and runtime plumbing: Named Credentials, External Credentials, External Services, REST/SOAP callout patterns, Platform Events, CDC, and event-driven integration design.

When This Skill Owns the Task

Use integration-connectivity-generate when the work involves:

  • .namedCredential-meta.xml or External Credential metadata
  • outbound REST/SOAP callouts
  • External Service registration from OpenAPI specs
  • Platform Events, CDC, and event-driven architecture
  • choosing sync vs async integration patterns

Delegate elsewhere when the user is:

  • configuring the OAuth app itself → integration-connectivity-connected-app-configure
  • writing Apex-only business logic → the platform-apex-generate skill
  • deploying metadata → the platform-metadata-deploy skill
  • importing/exporting data → the platform-data-manage skill

Required Context to Gather First

Ask for or infer:

  • integration style: outbound callout, inbound event, External Service, CDC, platform event
  • auth method
  • sync vs async requirement
  • system endpoint / spec details
  • rate limits, retry expectations, and failure tolerance
  • whether this is net-new design or repair of an existing integration

1. Choose the integration pattern
NeedDefault pattern
authenticated outbound API callNamed Credential / External Credential + Apex or Flow
spec-driven API clientExternal Service
trigger-originated calloutasync callout pattern
decoupled event publishingPlatform Events
change-stream consumptionCDC
2. Choose the auth model

Prefer secure runtime-managed auth:

  • Named Credentials / External Credentials
  • OAuth or JWT via the right credential model
  • no hardcoded secrets in code
3. Generate from the right templates

Use the provided assets under:

  • assets/named-credentials/
  • assets/external-credentials/
  • assets/external-services/
  • assets/callouts/
  • assets/platform-events/
  • assets/cdc/
  • assets/soap/
4. Validate operational safety

Check:

  • timeout and retry handling
  • async strategy for trigger-originated work
  • logging / observability
  • event retention and subscriber implications
5. Hand off deployment or implementation details

Use:

  • the platform-metadata-deploy skill for deployment
  • the platform-apex-generate skill for deeper service / retry code
  • the automation-flow-generate skill for declarative HTTP callout orchestration

High-Signal Rules

  • never hardcode credentials
  • do not do synchronous callouts from triggers
  • define timeout behavior explicitly
  • plan retries for transient failures
  • use middleware / event-driven patterns when outbound volume is high
  • prefer External Credentials architecture for new development when supported

Common anti-patterns:

  • sync trigger callouts
  • no retry or dead-letter strategy
  • no request/response logging
  • mixing auth setup responsibilities with runtime integration design

Output Format

When finishing, report in this order:

  1. Integration pattern chosen
  2. Auth model chosen
  3. Files created or updated
  4. Operational safeguards
  5. Deployment / testing next step

Suggested shape:

Integration: <summary>
Pattern: <named credential / external service / event / cdc / callout>
Files: <paths>
Safety: <timeouts, retries, async, logging>

Output Expectations

When this skill completes an integration task, it produces:

  1. Credential metadata — one or more files in assets/named-credentials/ or assets/external-credentials/ filled with org-specific values
  2. Callout Apex class — a .cls file using the Named Credential pattern, with async/sync pattern chosen based on context
  3. Event/CDC artifacts — Platform Event .object-meta.xml, subscriber trigger, or CDC config (when event-driven pattern is chosen)
  4. Endpoint security metadata — Remote Site Setting and/or CSP Trusted Site XML files
  5. Scoring report — 120-point score across 6 categories (Security, Error Handling, Bulkification, Architecture, Best Practices, Documentation)
  6. Next step — a deployment or testing instruction for the generated artifacts

Pre-Delivery Checklist

  • Never hardcode credentials — all secrets stored in Named Credentials or External Credentials
