What it does

Sf Vlocity Build Deploy is an agent skill from Jaganpro/sf-skills. Salesforce Industries DataPack deployment automation using Vlocity Build. TRIGGER when: user deploys or validates OmniStudio/Vlocity DataPacks with vlocity commands (packDeploy/packRetry/packExport/packGetDiffs), sets up DataPack CI/CD pipelines, or troubleshoots DataPack migration errors. DO NOT TRIGGER when: deploying Salesforce metadata with sf project deploy (use sf-deploy), authoring OmniStudio artifacts (use sf-industry-commoncore-), or writing Apex/LWC business logic (use sf-apex/sf-lwc).

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 13 other files, including reference files (for example `CREDITS.md`, `README.md` and `examples/business-internet-plus-bundle-deploy/TRANSCRIPT.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Deployment, CRM management and CI/CD. It works with Salesforce. The repository describes itself as: [ARCHIVED — migrated to forcedotcom/afv-library] Salesforce Skills for Agentic Coding Tools — Apex, Flow, LWC, SOQL, Agentforce, Data Cloud, OmniStudio. Read-only archive; active… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Validates OmniStudio/Vlocity DataPacks with vlocity commands (packDeploy/packRetry/packExport/packGetDiffs)
  • Sets up DataPack CI/CD pipelines
  • Troubleshoots DataPack migration errors
  • : deploying Salesforce metadata with sf project deploy (use sf-deploy)

Example prompts

  • “/sf-vlocity-build-deploy”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Ensure tool readiness
  2. Validate project data locally
  3. Export from source (when needed)
  4. Deploy to target
  5. Continue interrupted jobs
  6. Verify post-deploy parity

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 53c9956. 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:

    • sf
    • npm

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    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

Sf Vlocity Build Deploy loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 131 tokens; SKILL.md has 482 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~131
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.2k

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.

sf-vlocity-build-deploy: Vlocity Build DataPack Deployment

Use this skill when the user needs Vlocity DataPack deployment orchestration: export/deploy workflow, manifest-driven deploys, failure triage, and CI/CD sequencing for OmniStudio/Industries DataPacks.

When This Skill Owns the Task

Use sf-vlocity-build-deploy when work involves:

  • vlocity packDeploy, packRetry, packContinue, packExport, packGetDiffs, validateLocalData
  • DataPack job-file design (projectPath, expansionPath, manifest, queries)
  • org-to-org DataPack migration and retry loops
  • troubleshooting DataPack dependency, matching-key, and GlobalKey issues

Delegate elsewhere when the user is:

  • deploying standard metadata with sf project deploy -> sf-deploy
  • building OmniScripts, FlexCards, IPs, or Data Mappers -> sf-industry-commoncore-*
  • designing Product2 EPC bundles -> sf-industry-cme-epc-model
  • writing Apex/LWC code -> sf-apex, sf-lwc

Critical Operating Rules

  • Use Vlocity Build (vlocity) commands for DataPacks, not sf project deploy.
  • Prefer Salesforce CLI auth integration (-sfdx.username <alias>) over username/password files when available.
  • Always run a pre-deploy quality gate before full deploy:
    1. validateLocalData
    2. optional packGetDiffs
    3. then packDeploy
  • Use packRetry repeatedly when error counts are dropping; stop when retries no longer improve results.
  • Keep matching-key strategy and GlobalKey integrity consistent across source and target orgs.

Required Context to Gather First

Ask for or infer:

  • source org and target org aliases
  • job file path and DataPack project path
  • deployment scope (full project, manifest subset, or specific -key)
  • whether this is export, deploy, retry, continue, or diff-only
  • namespace model (%vlocity_namespace%, vlocity_cmt, or core)
  • known constraints (new sandbox bootstrap, trigger behavior, matching key customizations)

Preflight checks:

bash
vlocity help
sf org list
sf org display --target-org <alias> --json
test -f <job-file>.yaml
1. Ensure tool readiness
bash
npm install --global vlocity
vlocity help
2. Validate project data locally
bash
vlocity -sfdx.username <source-alias> -job <job-file>.yaml validateLocalData

Use --fixLocalGlobalKeys only when explicitly requested and after explaining impact.

3. Export from source (when needed)
bash
vlocity -sfdx.username <source-alias> -job <job-file>.yaml packExport
vlocity -sfdx.username <source-alias> -job <job-file>.yaml packRetry
4. Deploy to target
bash
vlocity -sfdx.username <target-alias> -job <job-file>.yaml packDeploy
vlocity -sfdx.username <target-alias> -job <job-file>.yaml packRetry
5. Continue interrupted jobs
bash
vlocity -sfdx.username <target-alias> -job <job-file>.yaml packContinue
6. Verify post-deploy parity
bash
vlocity -sfdx.username <target-alias> -job <job-file>.yaml packGetDiffs

High-Signal Failure Patterns

No match found for ...missing dependency in target orginclude missing DataPack key and redeploy
Duplicate Results found for ... GlobalKeyduplicate records in targetclean duplicates and re-run deploy
Multiple Imported Records ... same Salesforce Recordsource duplicate matching-key recordsremove duplicates in source and re-export
No Configuration Foundoutdated DataPack settingsrun packUpdateSettings or enable autoUpdateSettings
Some records were not processedsettings mismatch / partial dependency staterefresh settings both orgs, then retry
SASS / template compile failuresmissing referenced UI template assetsexport/deploy referenced template dependencies first

Detailed matrix: references/troubleshooting-matrix.md

CI/CD Guidance

Default pipeline shape:

  1. authenticate orgs (sf org login ...)
  2. validate local DataPack integrity (validateLocalData)
  3. export changed scope (packExport or manifest-driven export)
  4. deploy (packDeploy)
  5. retry loop (packRetry) until stable
  6. compare (packGetDiffs) and publish deployment report

For incremental deploy optimization, use job-file options such as:

  • gitCheck: true
  • gitCheckKey: <folder>
  • manifest for deterministic scope control
