d360-deploy

A Claude Code skill for managing Salesforce Data 360 metadata deployments across multiple environments using a branch-per-org pipeline.

What it does

Guides you through the full deployment lifecycle:

• Retrieve metadata from a dev org into a feature branch
• Promote changes through environments in order (e.g. dev → stage → prod)
• Deploy to each org and handle required manual UI steps (Data Kit deploys, KQ field re-assignment)
• Set up a new Data 360 devops repo from scratch
• Troubleshoot failed deploys, ExtDataTranFieldTemplate errors, and manifest issues

Usage

Invoke in Claude Code with phrases like:

• "deploy this change to stage"
• "promote feature/my-change to prod"
• "set up a new Data Cloud pipeline repo"
• "retrieve metadata from my dev org"
• "my deploy failed, help me troubleshoot"

Claude will read your config/pipeline.config to find your actual promotion order and org aliases before doing anything.

Pipeline structure

feature/change → dev → stage → [uat →] prod

One git branch per environment. Scripts handle retrieve, PR creation, and deployment. Manual Data Kit deploys in the Salesforce UI are required after each metadata deploy.

Scripts

Script	Purpose
1-retrieve.sh	Retrieves metadata from an org and commits it to the feature branch
2-pr.sh	Creates a PR to the next environment, enforcing promotion order
3-deploy.sh	Deploys the current branch to a target org with pre-deploy conflict checks

Known platform workarounds (automated)

Issue	Workaround
ExtDataTranFieldTemplate unsupported by Metadata API	Stripped before retrieve/deploy, restored after
KQ_ fields cause deploy errors	Deleted before deploy, removed from manifests
Orphaned manifest members	Detected and removed automatically

Dependencies

This skill requires a pipeline repo based on d360-deploy-cli-pipeline. Your project repo must have:

• config/pipeline.config — defines PROMOTION_ORDER and ORG_BRANCH_MAP
• scripts/ — contains 1-retrieve.sh, 2-pr.sh, 3-deploy.sh
• manifests/ — contains your package.xml manifest(s)

Clone or copy from d360-deploy-cli-pipeline to get started.
