Salesforce DX MCP Server

by salesforcecli

The official Salesforce DX MCP Server gives AI agents direct access to Salesforce orgs through over 60 structured tools covering metadata deployment, data management, Apex testing, Lightning Web Component development, and org administration. Built and maintained by Salesforce CLI team, it's the canonical way to connect Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, or any MCP-compatible AI assistant to production Salesforce environments. The toolset is organized into logical groups: orgs (authentication and org management), metadata (deploy/retrieve), data (SOQL queries and DML operations), users (permissions and profiles), testing (Apex test execution and coverage), code-analysis (Salesforce Code Analyzer integration), and framework-specific toolsets for LWC and Aura components. An experimental dynamic tool discovery feature reduces context window usage by loading only relevant tools for the current task. For Salesforce developers, this changes the workflow significantly. Instead of context-switching between VS Code, Salesforce CLI, and the org UI, an AI agent can query data, inspect metadata, run tests, and deploy changes through natural language. The server supports both classic Personal Access Tokens and OAuth for enterprise teams, with optional HTTP server mode that lets companies run a shared MCP instance with token forwarding.
