Introduction

The Agentic B2C Developer Toolkit helps you and your AI assistant build, deploy, and operate Salesforce B2C Commerce from your terminal or IDE.

• B2C CLI — commands for cartridge deployment, jobs, sandboxes, Managed Runtime, WebDAV, and administration.
• MCP Server — documentation, skills, debugging, deployment, and B2C Commerce API access for your AI assistant.
• Agent Skills — B2C Commerce, B2C CLI, and Storefront Next guidance, included with the MCP or available as standalone plugins.
• IDE Extension — sandbox management, cartridge code sync, content libraries, SCAPI explorer, and a server-side script debugger.
• Tooling SDK — typed TypeScript APIs for custom integrations and automation.

Documentation and skills work immediately without B2C Commerce credentials. Connected tasks use your existing B2C configuration.

The MCP includes the B2C Commerce, B2C CLI, and Storefront Next skills from our agent skills plugins. No need to install those skills plugins separately.

IDE Extension Install

The Salesforce B2C Commerce IDE Extension brings sandbox management, code sync, content libraries, the SCAPI explorer, and a server-side debugger into VS Code, Cursor, and other compatible editors. Open the Extensions view in your editor and search for Salesforce B2C Commerce — VS Code installs from the Visual Studio Marketplace, while Cursor, VSCodium, Windsurf, and other VS Code–compatible editors install from the Open VSX Registry.

See the IDE Extension section for the full overview, installation, and configuration.
