Agent Skills & Plugins

Install B2C Commerce agent skills and plugins in your AI-powered editor. Three plugins are available: b2c-cli (CLI operations), b2c (development patterns), and b2c-dx-mcp (MCP server — Claude Code only).

• Claude Code: run these commands in chat:

  /plugin marketplace add SalesforceCommerceCloud/b2c-developer-tooling
  /plugin install b2c-cli@b2c-developer-tooling
  /plugin install b2c@b2c-developer-tooling
  /plugin install b2c-dx-mcp@b2c-developer-tooling
  

• VS Code (GitHub Copilot): Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) → Chat: Install Plugin From Source → enter the repo SalesforceCommerceCloud/b2c-developer-tooling.

• GitHub Copilot CLI:

  copilot plugin marketplace add SalesforceCommerceCloud/b2c-developer-tooling
  copilot plugin install b2c-cli@b2c-developer-tooling
  copilot plugin install b2c@b2c-developer-tooling
  

• Cursor: add the marketplace from this repo URL in Cursor Settings → Plugins, then install b2c-cli / b2c.

• Codex CLI: run /plugins and add from this repo (GitHub URL).

• Gemini CLI: gemini extensions install https://github.com/SalesforceCommerceCloud/b2c-developer-tooling

• Any supported IDE (file-copy install via CLI):

Packages

This is a pnpm monorepo with the following packages:

Package	Description
b2c-cli	Command line interface built with oclif
b2c-tooling-sdk	SDK/library for B2C Commerce operations; supports the CLI and can be used standalone
b2c-dx-mcp	MCP server for B2C Commerce developer experience tools

Development

Prerequisites

• Node.js >= 22.16.0
• pnpm 10.17.1+

Setup

pnpm install

Running the CLI in Development Mode

pnpm start
# or directly:
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-cli run dev
# or using convenience script:
./cli

The dev mode uses Node.js --conditions=development to resolve TypeScript source files directly from @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk without needing to build first.

Building

# Build all packages
pnpm -r run build

# Build individual packages
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-cli run build
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk run build

Testing

Tests use Mocha + Chai with c8 for coverage. HTTP mocking uses MSW.

# Run all tests with coverage (also runs linter after tests)
pnpm test

# Run tests for a specific package
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk run test

# Run tests without coverage (faster)
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk run test:unit

# Watch mode for TDD
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk run test:watch

# Run a specific test file
cd packages/b2c-tooling-sdk
pnpm mocha "test/clients/webdav.test.ts"

# Run tests matching a pattern
pnpm mocha --grep "uploads a file" "test/**/*.test.ts"

Coverage

Coverage reports are generated in each package's coverage/ directory:

• coverage/index.html - HTML report
• coverage/lcov.info - LCOV format for CI integration

The SDK package has a 5% coverage threshold that will fail the build if not met.

Linting

# Run linter only
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-cli run lint
pnpm --filter @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk run lint

Code Formatting

This project uses Prettier for code formatting.

# Format all packages
pnpm -r run format

# Check formatting without modifying files
pnpm -r run format:check

Documentation

Documentation is built using TypeDoc for API reference generation and VitePress for the documentation site.

Structure

• docs/ - VitePress documentation source
  • guide/ - User guide and getting started
  • cli/ - CLI command reference
  • api/ - Generated API documentation (do not edit manually)
• typedoc.json - TypeDoc configuration with entry points for SDK modules

Development Server

pnpm run docs:dev

This runs typedoc to generate API docs, then starts VitePress in development mode with hot reload.

Building Documentation

pnpm run docs:build

Previewing Built Documentation

pnpm run docs:preview

Deployed Documentation

The documentation site serves two versions:

• Stable (root URL) — built from the most recent release tag, updated on every stable release
• Dev (/dev/) — built from the main branch, updated on every push to main

Doc-only releases (without bumping CLI/SDK/MCP versions) are possible by creating a changeset targeting @salesforce/b2c-dx-docs. See PUBLISHING.md for details.

API Documentation

API documentation is auto-generated from JSDoc comments in the @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk package. The entry points are defined in typedoc.json:

See the documentation site for the generated API reference.

• auth - Authentication strategies (OAuth, API Key, Basic)
• instance - B2C instance configuration
• platform - MRT and ODS clients
• operations/code - Cartridge code operations
• operations/jobs - Job execution
• operations/sites - Site management
• i18n - Internationalization utilities
• logging - Structured logging

When adding new public APIs, ensure they have comprehensive JSDoc comments as these will appear in the generated documentation.

Releases and Publishing

This project uses Changesets for version management and publishes to npm using OIDC trusted publishers.

Release Type	npm Tag	Trigger
Stable	@latest	Merge version PR on main
Release Branch	@latest or @release-X.Y	Push to release/** branch
Nightly	@nightly	Scheduled (weekdays) or manual

For detailed information about the release process, including release branches, see PUBLISHING.md.

Quick Reference

# Create a changeset for your changes
pnpm changeset

# Check pending changesets
pnpm changeset status

Preview Releases

Preview releases are available as tgz files on GitHub Releases for testing before npm publication.

Package Exports

The @salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk package uses the exports field in package.json to define its public API surface. Each module is available as a subpath export:

import {OAuthStrategy} from '@salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk/auth';
import {B2CInstance} from '@salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk/instance';
import {getLogger} from '@salesforce/b2c-tooling-sdk/logging';

The development condition in exports enables direct TypeScript source resolution when using --conditions=development, which is how bin/dev.js works for local development.

Contributing

We welcome contributions! Please see our Contributing Guide for details on how to get started, submit pull requests, and our code of conduct.

Third-Party Dependency Review

To prevent net-new third-party libraries from being added without discussion, PRs are checked by the 3PL Guard workflow (Net-new 3PL check).

• The check compares changed package.json files in the PR and detects net-new external dependencies.
• If net-new dependencies are found, the PR is labeled needs-3pl-review and the check fails.
• After discussion and approval, a maintainer adds the 3pl-approved label to allow the check to pass.
• If the net-new dependency is removed, needs-3pl-review is removed automatically.

To enforce this as a merge gate, keep Net-new 3PL check as a required status check in branch protection.
