service-agentforce-channel-configure

service-agentforce-channel-configure is a skill for Claude Code from forcedotcom/sf-skills. It costs 211 tokens per session (5,003 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup guide for connecting an existing Salesforce Agentforce agent to a customer communication channel, such as chat, voice, or email. It also handles a fallback queue for work the agent cannot take.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to route enhanced chat, voice calls, or Email-to-Case messages to an existing Agentforce service agent and configure optional escalation.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually connect channel settings, routing rules, the agent, and overflow handling. This helps customer requests reach the intended agent reliably.

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

service-agentforce-channel-configure 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/validate-botemaildefinition.py, scripts/validate-emailtemplate.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.

service-agentforce-channel-configure: Wire an Agentforce agent to a channel

Adds inbound routing between an existing channel and an existing Agentforce agent. The agent receives work items from the channel; a fallback queue handles overflow when the agent is unavailable.

This skill is generic — it works for any Agentforce agent, not just the Help Agent template.

Scope

In scope:

  • Resolving or creating a fallback queue with the correct QueueSobject SobjectType
  • Branch A (Enhanced Chat / Enhanced Messaging): deploying sessionHandlerType=AgentforceServiceAgent + sessionHandlerQueue on an existing MessagingChannel, then binding SessionHandlerId via Data API PATCH
  • Branch B (Voice): assumes the phone number and PstnVoice MessagingChannel already exist (provisioned by the caller, e.g. service-helpagent-coordinate), then creating an inbound RoutingFlow (routingType: Copilot) that routes to the agent with the queue as fallback
  • Branch C (Email-to-Case): inbound routing via direct case-owner assignment or an Omni-Channel RoutingFlow, plus deploying a BotEmailDefinition (Email Configuration) that links the agent to Service Email and binding it to the routing address
  • Optional outbound escalation: delegating the verified agent-to-human handoff contract to service-agentforce-human-escalation-configure

Out of scope:

  • Creating the agent — use agentforce-generate or service-helpagent-coordinate
  • Creating the MessagingChannel — use service-digital-engagement-channel-configure
  • Creating the Embedded Service Deployment — use service-digital-engagement-deployment-configure
  • Creating the Voice or Email-to-Case channel infrastructure

Required inputs

  • Agent DeveloperName and agent label (MasterLabel) — must be an existing, active agent
  • Channel type — one of: Enhanced Chat, Enhanced Messaging (3rd-party), Voice, Email-to-Case
  • Channel identifier — MessagingChannel DeveloperName (Branch A), or the channel name/context (Branches B/C)
  • Target org alias

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.
