change-data-capture-admin

change-data-capture-admin is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BanibrataChatterjee/AwesomeSalesforceSkills. It costs 50 tokens per session (2,568 once invoked), scanned B, original, Apache-2.0.

An administrator guide for Salesforce Change Data Capture, which publishes record-change events for selected data objects. It covers choosing what data is published, adding custom channels, and checking delivery limits.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure CDC entity selections, manage custom CDC channels, monitor daily event delivery, and check how Data Cloud CRM data streams affect those settings.
Why use it?
It helps avoid changing event settings that could unexpectedly affect Data Cloud synchronisation. It also clarifies platform limits and the difference between setup and code-based event handling.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

change-data-capture-admin scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/check_change_data_capture_admin.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Strips warnings and disclaimersmediumAnti-refusal

Omitting safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 211 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Change Data Capture Admin

This skill activates when an admin needs to configure Change Data Capture (CDC) entity selection, manage custom CDC channels, monitor daily delivery usage against edition limits, and understand the interaction between CDC and Data Cloud CRM data streams. It covers admin-facing CDC setup only — for Apex trigger subscriber implementation, see change-data-capture-integration.

Before Starting

Gather this context before working on anything in this domain:

  • CDC is an admin-configuration feature: Enabling CDC for an object is done in Setup > Integrations > Change Data Capture by selecting entities. No code is required to enable CDC — the events are published automatically by the platform once enabled.
  • Most critical gotcha: If the org has Data Cloud active and has created CRM Data Streams, Data Cloud silently adds CDC entity selections to the DataCloudEntities channel without admin intervention. Modifying these selections via the Metadata API or Tooling API can cause unintended Data Cloud sync side effects. Always check for Data Cloud CRM data streams before modifying CDC entity selections.
  • Daily delivery limits differ by edition: Performance and Unlimited editions receive 50,000 CDC events per 24 hours; Enterprise receives 25,000; Developer edition receives 10,000. These limits are monitored via PlatformEventUsageMetric.

Core Concepts

Entity Selection

CDC is enabled per object (entity) in Setup > Integrations > Change Data Capture. When an object is selected, Salesforce begins publishing change events to the /data/<ObjectName>ChangeEvent channel for every create, update, delete, and undelete operation on that object.

  • Standard objects: Select from the "Standard Objects" list.
  • Custom objects: Select from the "Custom Objects" list (both standard and custom CDC channels exist).
  • The ChangeEventHeader included with every event captures: changeType (CREATE, UPDATE, DELETE, UNDELETE), changedFields (array of changed field API names for UPDATE events), commitTimestamp, recordIds, and commitUser (the user who made the change).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
