AI Code Generation for Salesforce Development

Generic AI code generators don't understand Salesforce. They produce code that compiles but hits governor limits at scale. SF Agent is built specifically for Salesforce — it knows about SOQL-in-loops, bulkification, DML limits, and the test coverage requirement.

The Manual Way

  1. 1Learn Salesforce-specific patterns (bulk triggers, governor limits)
  2. 2Set up local SFDX development environment
  3. 3Write code with IDE (VS Code + Salesforce Extension Pack)
  4. 4Manually handle bulk patterns, error handling, test data
  5. 5Write test classes achieving 75%+ coverage
  6. 6Deploy via SFDX, change set, or unlocked package
  7. 7Review and refactor for production quality

With SF Agent

  1. 1Describe the business logic in plain English
  2. 2SF Agent generates code following Salesforce best practices
  3. 3Bulk patterns, governor-limit awareness, and error handling built in
  4. 4Test classes with real assertions generated alongside the code
  5. 5Both deploy together — test failures block the deploy

Example

You type:

Create a batch Apex class that deactivates Contacts who haven't had any Activity in the last 365 days. Run nightly. Send a summary email to the admin when complete.

SF Agent generates:
  • Batch Apex: InactiveContactDeactivator (implements Database.Batchable)
  • Scheduler: InactiveContactScheduler (runs daily at midnight)
  • Email notification: summary of deactivated records
  • Test Class: InactiveContactDeactivatorTest (bulk test with 200 records)
