What it does

Salesforce Cost Tuning is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Analyze Salesforce license, add-on, storage, event, API, support, middleware, and operating costs from current customer evidence. Use when making cost and value decisions. Trigger with "optimize Salesforce cost".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code; commercial, license, retention, architecture, and workload changes require procurement, finance, platform, and business approval

It sits in Sales & Support, covering CRM management. It works with Salesforce. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Making cost and value decisions
  • With optimize Salesforce cost

Example prompts

  • “optimize Salesforce cost”
  • “/salesforce-cost-tuning”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code; commercial, license, retention, architecture, and workload changes require procurement, finance, platform, and business approval
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, WebFetch, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Freeze review window, currencies, orgs, products, contracts, populations, workloads, outcomes, and accountable owners.
  2. Reconcile invoices and commitments with assigned and active licenses, storage, API and event usage, add-ons, support, middleware, compute…
  3. Normalize time periods and currencies while preserving source, effective date, allocation method, and confidence.
  4. Identify unused or mismatched assignments, duplicate capability, retention growth, event or API pressure, support load, and architectural…
  5. Model bounded scenarios with commercial assumptions, technical effects, business impact, security and data risk, reversibility, and…
  6. Present license, contract, retention, integration, scheduling, or architecture changes to the corresponding owners.
  7. Canary reversible operational changes, reconcile savings and outcomes, and never claim savings until invoices and service quality confirm…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • WebFetch
    • Write
    • Edit

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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):

    • developer.salesforce.com
    • help.salesforce.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.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code; commercial, license, retention, architecture, and workload changes require procurement, finance, platform, and business approval

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Salesforce Cost Tuning loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 416 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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.

Salesforce Cost and Value Governance

Overview

Build a dated total-cost model that connects commercial terms and technical consumption to business outcomes without inventing public prices or savings.

Prerequisites

  • Current order forms, invoices, license assignments, add-ons, storage, support, and vendor or partner statements
  • Org usage, API and event allocations, middleware, compute, operations, incident, and migration evidence
  • Finance, procurement, Salesforce platform, security, data, architecture, and business owners

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect approved repository and evidence files, WebFetch to re-check current first-party Salesforce documentation, and Write or Edit only for secretless plans, fixtures, configuration, and redacted receipts.

Current Contract

Salesforce editions, licenses, add-ons, storage, event delivery, API allocations, support, and partner services are customer-specific and change over time. Public documentation cannot establish one customer's price or entitlement.

Authentication

Use read-only approved billing, contract, org, and telemetry evidence. Separate commercial and technical access and do not expose user-level license, compensation, customer, or record data.

Instructions

  1. Freeze review window, currencies, orgs, products, contracts, populations, workloads, outcomes, and accountable owners.
  2. Reconcile invoices and commitments with assigned and active licenses, storage, API and event usage, add-ons, support, middleware, compute, and labor.
  3. Normalize time periods and currencies while preserving source, effective date, allocation method, and confidence.
  4. Identify unused or mismatched assignments, duplicate capability, retention growth, event or API pressure, support load, and architectural overhead.
  5. Model bounded scenarios with commercial assumptions, technical effects, business impact, security and data risk, reversibility, and confidence.
  6. Present license, contract, retention, integration, scheduling, or architecture changes to the corresponding owners.
  7. Canary reversible operational changes, reconcile savings and outcomes, and never claim savings until invoices and service quality confirm them.

Approval Boundaries

Do not remove licenses, change contracts, delete data, reduce support, throttle business-critical work, or re-architect integrations without owners.

Output

Return the reconciled baseline, dated sources, allocation model, anomalies, scenarios, assumptions, approvals, canary evidence, realized-versus-forecast result, and review date.

Error Handling

ConditionResponse
Invoice and org inventory disagreePreserve both and route reconciliation to finance, procurement, and the platform owner.
Scenario relies on undocumented pricing or entitlementMark it invalid until current customer terms are obtained.
Nominal savings degrade compliance or business outcomesReject or redesign the scenario regardless of headline cost.

Example

A redacted completion receipt might look like this:

text
window=FY2026-Q3; sources=contract+invoice+org+ops; reconciliation=exact; scenarios=4; approved=1; savings=unrealized

Resources

Next Steps

Run the workflow first in the lowest-risk authorized org and preserve its redacted receipt. Schedule a review against the next Salesforce seasonal release and the customer change calendar.
