Salesforce Development with AI : Cursor + Agentforce Vibes

Learn how Cursor IDE, an AI-powered development tool, writes and refactors Apex and other code fast, understands your project, runs agents, and integrates with MCP for deployment and testing.

Discover how Cursor helps Salesforce admins and developers understand code, generate Apex classes and triggers, automate formula fields and validation rules with flow actions, and write SQL queries.

Prepare your development environment by installing cursor, Visual Studio Code, Salesforce CLI, Node.js, Java, JDK, git, and VS Code extensions; verify installations via command prompts.

Verify your machine has no prior installations, then download and install Cursor and Visual Studio Code on Windows, sign in, and launch the apps for Salesforce development workflow.

Install Salesforce CLI, cursor, git, Node.js, Java JDK, and Visual Studio Code on Windows, then verify installations with command prompt version checks.

Install the Salesforce extension pack and the Salesforce CLI in Visual Studio Code to set up essential tools for Salesforce development.

Create a standard project with manifest in VSCode, authorize your org via the command palette, then open it in Cursor and import VSCode settings and extensions.

Explore pricing models for AI code editor cursor, including free, pro, pro plus, and ultra plans with monthly and yearly options, and note features like agent limits and tab completions.

Explore important cursor settings, including administrator run for MCP server, account management, token usage, editor and keyboard preferences, VSCode import, notifications, chat modes, model selection, and rules for agent behavior.

Discover how the model context protocol (mcp) empowers the Cursor AI code editor by configuring the mcp.json file to connect to GitHub, Playwright, Salesforce DX, and other helpers.

Compare running cursor with and without the Salesforce DX MCP server: shell commands versus TypeScript commands, highlighting safer, structured API responses, direct library calls, and enhanced security and access control.

Configure the MCP.json in Cursor to connect to GitHub and Salesforce DX, manage tools and telemetry, and enable dynamic tool discovery for efficient automation.

Compare cursor's MCP-enabled versus non-MCP command execution for Salesforce deployments, where MCP yields JSON results with TypeScript commands, whereas non-MCP uses shell commands with plain text.

Create a demo Cursor project with manifest and authorize a Salesforce org as the target, then deploy code, build flows, and create trigger handlers, test classes, and a WC component.

Add health score, revenue tier, and last 90 day wins to the account object with Cursor, deploy the fields, and update the account layout for admin access.

Add a discount percent field to the opportunity object and enforce a 30% validation rule, deploying field level security and updating the page layout.

Explore how Cursor enables creating a record-triggered flow that auto-creates a task when an account’s health score falls below 40, including owner assignment, due date, and description.

Create an Apex service class with cursor to update account health score, based on revenue score and last 90 day wins, and deploy to the org.

Use cursor to create and deploy an Apex test class for account health service, covering revenue and 90 days win rate calculations, and verify 90% code coverage in the org.

Cursor creates an apex trigger on the opportunity object and a trigger handler to roll up last 90 day wins to the account field and recalculate the account health score.

Shows creating and deploying an opportunity trigger handler test class with cursor, validating 85% coverage and handling validation rule issues across accounts and opportunities.

Cursor creates a lightning web component from scratch, generating html, javascript, and an apex controller to search contacts by last name and show name and email in a data table.

Discover how prompts convert to tokens, how token counts drive costs including model responses, and how shorter prompts with sparing context reduce usage in cursor.

Cursor rules set ground rules for prompts, enforcing standards like naming conventions and camel case. They apply automatically in the background and persist until you change or remove them.

Discover how cursor commands differ from rules, create a command file in the dot cursor folder, and reference it in prompts to reuse instructions across tasks.

Connect the Cursor app to a GitHub MCP server using an MCP dot JSON file and a personal access token, configure tokens, test access, list repos, and create new repositories.

Learn how to use Cursor, MCP tool, to push files, commit to GitHub repositories, read or create readmes, manage issues, and list pull requests.
