escalation-rules is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BanibrataChatterjee/AwesomeSalesforceSkills. It costs 75 tokens per session (2,698 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to Salesforce Case Escalation Rules, which notify people or reassign support cases when they remain unresolved past a time limit.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure time-based escalation entries, email alerts, reassignment actions, and troubleshoot cases that do not escalate.
Why use it?
It helps teams account for business hours, hourly processing, and the fact that only one escalation rule can be active in an organization.

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 A, and why

escalation-rules scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/check_escalation_rules.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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Escalation Rules

This skill activates when you need to configure, review, or troubleshoot Salesforce Case Escalation Rules — the declarative mechanism that automatically notifies stakeholders or reassigns cases when they are not resolved within a specified time window.


Before Starting

Gather this context before working on anything in this domain:

  • Active rule limit: Only one escalation rule can be active per org. If multiple rule configs exist, only the one marked Active fires. Confirm whether an active rule already exists before creating a new one.
  • Processing cadence: The time-based workflow engine that drives escalation runs approximately every hour. Escalations are not fired in real time. A case that hits its threshold at 2:05 PM may not escalate until the next engine run — plan SLA commitments accordingly.
  • Business hours dependency: If an escalation entry is configured to use business hours, those business hours must exist and be assigned to the case. If no business hours are defined at org level, the default is 24/7.

Core Concepts

How Escalation Rules Differ from Assignment Rules

Assignment rules route cases to users or queues when a case is created or re-opened. They fire once on creation.

Escalation rules operate on a timer: they fire when a case that matches defined criteria has been open for longer than a configured threshold. If a case is not resolved within X hours, escalation rules send notifications or reassign the case.

The two rules are complementary. Assignment routes the case on arrival; escalation follows up when response time is exceeded.

Rule Structure: One Rule, Many Entries

A single active escalation rule contains multiple rule entries. Each entry defines:

  1. Entry criteria — which cases this entry applies to (filter logic: field = value, using the same criteria builder as other rule types)
  2. Escalation time — how many hours must pass before the escalation actions fire
  3. Business hours — whether the timer counts all hours or only configured business hours
  4. Age-over field — whether the timer is based on the case's creation date or the date the case was last modified (default is creation date; choose "last modified" to reset the clock when agents update the case)

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.
