## API Endpoints
When running in HTTP mode, the server provides these endpoints:
### Core Endpoints:
- `GET /` - Web UI interface
- `GET /health` - Health check

- `GET /api/tools` - Available tools list
- `POST /api/execute` - Execute Salesforce CLI commands
- `POST /mcp` - MCP protocol endpoint
### Example API Usage:
```bash
# Execute a SOQL query
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/execute \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"command": "data query --json --query \"SELECT Id, Name FROM Account LIMIT 5\""}'
# List all orgs
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/execute \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"command": "org list --json"}'
# Check server health
curl http://localhost:3000/health
```
## MCP Client Configuration
### For Claude Desktop
Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop MCP settings file:
**macOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
**Windows**: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
#### STDIO Mode:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"salesforce-cli": {

4. Click "Execute" and view results
### Via Natural Language (MCP clients)
Once configured, you can use natural language with your AI assistant:
#### Org Management
- "List all my Salesforce orgs"
- "Show me the connection status of all orgs"
#### Data Queries
- "Query all accounts in my org"
- "Get all contacts where the email contains 'example.com'"
- "Run this SOQL query: SELECT Id, Name FROM Account LIMIT 10"
#### Metadata Operations
- "Deploy all metadata to my sandbox"
- "Retrieve the Account object metadata"
- "Deploy only the AccountController class"
#### Testing
- "Run all Apex tests in my org"
- "Run tests for the AccountTest class"
#### Data Import
- "Import the accounts.csv file as Account records"
#### Custom Commands
- "Run the command: org display --target-org myorg"
## Development
### Testing
Use the MCP Inspector to test your server:
```bash
npm run inspector
```
### Development Mode
Run in development mode with auto-rebuild:
```bash
npm run dev
```
### Web UI Development
For web UI development, start the HTTP server and make changes to files in the `public/` directory:
```bash
npm run web
```
The server will serve static files from the `public/` directory automatically.
## Security Considerations
This MCP server executes Salesforce CLI commands directly on your system. Ensure that:
1. You trust the AI assistant you're using
2. You have proper backup procedures in place
3. You understand the implications of the commands being executed
4. You review any destructive operations before confirming
5. The HTTP server (if used) is only accessible from trusted networks
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
1. **"Command not found: sf"**
- Ensure Salesforce CLI is installed and in your PATH
2. **"No orgs found"**
- Make sure you have authorized at least one Salesforce org using `sf org login web`
3. **"Permission denied"**
- Ensure the build files have execute permissions: `chmod +x build/*.js`
4. **"Module not found"**
- Run `npm install` to install dependencies
- Run `npm run build` to compile TypeScript
5. **"Port already in use"**
- Change the port: `MCP_PORT=3001 npm run web`
6. **Web UI not loading**
- Ensure you've run `npm run build` first
- Check that `public/index.html` exists
- Verify server is running: `curl http://localhost:3000/health`
