platform-custom-metadata-type-generate

platform-custom-metadata-type-generate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from forcedotcom/sf-skills. It costs 189 tokens per session (5,700 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A generator and validator for Salesforce Custom Metadata Types, which store deployable configuration definitions and records in a Salesforce project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create custom metadata types, fields, relationship fields, and deployable record files, or to validate and troubleshoot them.
Why use it?
It helps avoid metadata structure and deployment errors when configuration must move between Salesforce orgs or ship with a package.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Anti-Refusal · line 366
    Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.
    Fix: Remove instructions that suppress warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Let the agent surface safety-relevant caveats to the user.
  • medium Tool Misuse · line 365
    Tool defaults are unsafe or overly permissive (e.g. disabled TLS verification, no authentication, world-writable permissions). Unsafe defaults widen the attack surface.
    Fix: Override unsafe defaults with secure settings (verify=True, auth required, restrictive permissions). Review and harden all tool configurations.

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

platform-custom-metadata-type-generate 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 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/sanitize-developer-name.sh), 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.

Salesforce Custom Metadata Type Generator and Validator

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

  • Create a Custom Metadata Type (__mdt)
  • Generate or validate CMDT fields, including MetadataRelationship fields
  • Generate CMDT records as deployable .md-meta.xml files
  • Troubleshoot CMDT deployment errors

1. Overview and Purpose

A Custom Metadata Type produces two separate artifact families, and most requests need both:

Artifact Path Metadata type
Type definition objects/<Name>__mdt/<Name>__mdt.object-meta.xml CustomObject
Fields objects/<Name>__mdt/fields/<Field>__c.field-meta.xml CustomField
Records customMetadata/<Name>.<Record>.md-meta.xml CustomMetadata

API name suffix: __mdt on the type; fields still end in __c.

The defining advantage over a custom setting: CMDT records are metadata and therefore deploy between orgs. When a user says configuration should "ship with the package" or "be the same in every org," CMDT is the right answer.

The root element is <CustomObject>, but almost none of a custom object's rules apply. sharingModel, nameField, and deploymentStatus are required or normal on a regular custom object and are hard errors here. Do not carry assumptions across from platform-custom-object-generate.


2. Syntactic Essentials — Type Definition (Tier 1)

Required and Allowed Elements

Element Requirement Notes
<label> Required Singular UI name
<pluralLabel> Required Omitting it gives Must specify a non-empty plural label for the CustomObject
<visibility> Always include Public, or Protected/PackageProtected only in dev/sandbox/scratch (Section 6)
<description> Always include What this type configures and who owns it

<pluralLabel> being required here but forbidden on a custom setting is the most commonly inverted rule between the two families. Neither failure mentions the other family's rule.

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.
