Agentforce Vibes is Salesforce’s enterprise-grade implementation of "Vibe Coding"—a new way of building software where you use natural language to describe your intent (your "vibe") and the AI handles the heavy lifting of writing code, building metadata, and setting up automation.
It effectively replaces and expands upon the older Code Builder and Agentforce for Developers tools.
1. The Core Concept: "Vibe Coding"
In traditional coding, you type every character. In "vibe coding," you have a conversation with the AI.
"I need a Lightning Web Component that shows a list of high-priority cases for the logged-in user with a button to escalate them."
Agentforce Vibes doesn't just give you a snippet; it understands your entire Salesforce Org.
2. Two Ways to Access It
Depending on how you like to work, you can use Vibes in two places:
Agentforce Vibes IDE (Web): A browser-based version of VS Code.
You can launch this directly from the Salesforce Setup menu. No installation is required VS Code Extension (Local): An extension you install on your computer. This is what you would use if you want to pull code to your local machine (as we discussed in the previous step).
3. Key Modes of Operation
Agentforce Vibes typically operates in two distinct modes to help you manage the development lifecycle:
Plan Mode: You describe what you want to build.
Act Mode: The AI executes the plan. It creates the files, writes the logic, and even runs CLI commands to deploy the changes to your sandbox or scratch org.
4. What Makes It "Enterprise" (The Trust Layer)
Unlike generic AI (like ChatGPT), Agentforce Vibes is built with the Salesforce Trust Layer.
Data Privacy: Your code and metadata are never used to train the global AI models.
Compliance: It follows Salesforce best practices (e.g., it won't write DML statements inside loops).
Security: It integrates with the Salesforce Code Analyzer to scan for vulnerabilities before you deploy.
5. Practical Capabilities
| Feature | What it does |
| Auto-completion | Predicts the next line of Apex or LWC code as you type. |
| Test Generation | Automatically writes unit tests to help you reach that 75% coverage requirement. |
| Refactoring | You can highlight a "messy" piece of code and ask Vibes to "make this more efficient." |
| Metadata Creation | It can create custom objects, fields, and flows, not just code. |
Summary of Limits
As of late 2025, Agentforce Vibes typically offers 50 "Pro" requests per day (using top-tier models like GPT-5).
To get access to Agentforce Vibes, you need to enable it within your Salesforce Org and then choose whether to use the Web IDE (direct browser access) or the VS Code Extension (local computer access)
1. Requirements for Access
Before you can see the settings, ensure your Org meets these criteria:
Edition: Enterprise, Performance, or Unlimited.
Permissions: Your user profile or a Permission Set must have the "View All Data" and "Modify All Data" (or specific Agentforce Developer) permissions enabled.
Licenses: Salesforce provides a specific number of Agentforce Vibes licenses based on your edition (e.g., 40 for Enterprise, 100 for Unlimited).
2. How to Enable It (Admin Steps)
An Admin must perform these steps in the Production or Sandbox environment:
Turn on Einstein:
Go to Setup > Einstein Setup
Toggle Turn on Einstein to "On.
Enable Agentforce:
In Setup, search for Agentforce Agents.
Ensure the Agentforce toggle is "On."
Launch Agentforce Vibes IDE:
In the Setup Quick Find box, type Agentforce Vibes.
Click on Agentforce Vibes and accept the Terms and Conditions.
It may take a few minutes for the environment to initialize.
3. How to Use It (The Two "Vibes" Interfaces)
A. The Web IDE (No Install Needed)
Once enabled by the Admin, you can access it directly in the browser:
Go to the App Launcher (the 9 dots) and search for Agentforce Vibes.
This opens a browser-based version of VS Code with all the "Vibe Coding" tools pre-installed.
B. Local VS Code (For your Computer)
If you want the "vibes" on your local machine:
Open Visual Studio Code on your computer.
Go to the Extensions view (
Ctrl+Shift+X).Search for and install the Salesforce Extension Pack and the Einstein for Developers extension (this provides the Agentforce Vibes chat interface locally).
Authorize your Org (as we discussed earlier) to link your local AI chat to your Salesforce metadata.
| Feature | Web IDE | Local VS Code |
| Setup Time | Instant | 10–15 minutes |
| Source Control | Built-in Git | Local Git/GitHub |
| Offline Work | No | Yes |
| Best For... | Quick prototyping & Admins | Full-time Developers |
After you change all the settings, you can access Web Agentforce vibes from here.
To show you how Agentforce Vibes works in practice, let's walk through a common request: Creating a "Gold Member" Trigger.
In "Vibe Coding," you don't start by writing the logic; you start by describing the business outcome.
1. The Prompt (Your "Vibe")
In the Agentforce Vibes chat panel, you would enter a prompt like this:
"I want to create an Apex trigger on the Account object. Whenever an Account's 'AnnualRevenue' is updated to more than $1,000,000, automatically change the 'CustomerPriority' field to 'High' and create a Task for the Account Owner to reach out and say thank you."
2. Step 1: The "Plan Mode"
Before writing code, Agentforce Vibes will respond with a Plan. It might look like this:
Step 1: Create an Apex Trigger (
AccountTrigger) on theAccountobject.Step 2: Create an Apex Handler class (
AccountTriggerHandler) to follow best practices (logic-less triggers).Step 3: Filter for Accounts where
AnnualRevenuewas changed and is now over $1M.Step 4: Logic to update
CustomerPriority__c.Step 5: Logic to insert a
Taskrecord.
You then click "Approve Plan" or say "Looks good!"
3. Step 2: The "Act Mode" (Code Generation)
Vibes will then generate the code. Here is what it would look like behind the scenes:
The Apex Handler Snippet:
public with sharing class AccountTriggerHandler {
public static void handleAfterUpdate(List<Account> newAccs, Map<Id, Account> oldMap) {
List<Task> tasksToCreate = new List<Task>();
List<Account> accsToUpdate = new List<Account>();
for (Account acc : newAccs) {
// Check if revenue crossed the 1M threshold
if (acc.AnnualRevenue > 1000000 && oldMap.get(acc.Id).AnnualRevenue <= 1000000) {
// Add Task
tasksToCreate.add(new Task(
Subject = 'Thank Gold Member',
OwnerId = acc.OwnerId,
WhatId = acc.Id,
Priority = 'High'
));
}
}
if (!tasksToCreate.isEmpty()) insert tasksToCreate;
}
}
4. Step 3: Deployment & Refinement
Once the code is generated:
Click "Apply": This injects the files directly into your project structure in the sidebar.
Ask for Tests: You can then type: "Now write the Apex Test class for this with 100% coverage."
Deploy: You can use the built-in terminal or the SFDX buttons to push this code to your Scratch Org or Sandbox.
5. Why this is better than "Old" Coding
Context Awareness: If your field is actually named
Priority_Level__cinstead ofCustomerPriority, Vibes will see that in your Org's metadata and use the correct API name automatically.Bulkification: It automatically handles lists and maps so your code doesn't hit governor limits—a common mistake for beginners.
Documentation: It will automatically add comments to the code explaining what each section does.
Important Tip for Success
When using Agentforce Vibes, follow the "C.R.A.F.T." rule for your prompts:
Context: What object are we on?
Role: Act as a Senior Salesforce Developer.
Action: Create a trigger and a task.
Format: Use a Handler/Trigger pattern.
Target: Deploy to my Sandbox.
