    I want to disable in sandbox. 

    I have this turned off. 

    I still can see the agentforce vibes 

    Disable Extension

    This will prevent the extension from being used when this org is the connected org in the IDE.

Thank you for adding the ability to install Code Builder in sandbox environments. This was critical for ensuring that we don't have developers accessing production environments. 

 

What does the roadmap look like for dynamically handling IP restricted environments for Code Builder access? This is a big hurdle for us using the tool as we don't want to burden our admins with maintaining IP addresses for this.

How to add my team shared project repo hosted on github to agentforce Vibes IDE as a remote repo.? 

 

I want to checkout to the local feature branch in the local github repo and commit my features to that local feature branch. Then push those changes to the remote feature branch in remote team shared repo which is the same workflow most developers follow when using VS Code IDE installed on their desktops.

Following up on my recent blog post

 on Web Console, I wanted to address a few great questions that came up. 

 

Web Console vs. Agentforce Vibes IDE

 

A simple way to think about it:

  • Web Console = lightweight, instant-on browser development
  • Agentforce Vibes IDE = full cloud IDE with a full compute environment

What Web Console is

  • A browser-based IDE embedded directly in Salesforce
  • Built for fast, in-context tasks without leaving the org
  • Available in all orgs, including free orgs
  • Best for:
    • running SOQL
    • checking debug logs
    • using Anonymous Apex
    • making targeted Apex edits
    • validating a fix quickly
  • In production, Apex is read-only for safety
  • In non-production, you can make inline edits and save changes

What Agentforce Vibes IDE is

  • A full web-based IDE that brings the power of VS Code into the browser
  • Available in Professional Edition, Unlimited Edition, Enterprise Edition and Developer Edition
  • Includes:
    • Salesforce Extensions
    • Salesforce CLI
    • GitHub integration
    • Agentforce Vibes extension for AI-powered development
  • Best for:
    • larger projects
    • multi-file changes
    • source-driven development
    • AI-assisted coding
    • broader team/dev workflows

Biggest difference

  • Web Console is optimized for proximity to the org
    • launch from Salesforce
    • stay in context
    • investigate → fix → validate fast
  • Agentforce Vibes IDE is optimized for depth
    • full project workspace
    • richer tooling
    • better for sustained development work

Strengths of Web Console

  • Loads fast and keeps you in the flow
  • Great for troubleshooting and quick fixes
  • Designed around common “something broke” workflows
  • Lets you move from issue to code faster because it is embedded in Salesforce surfaces like Setup and org-aware workflows

Strengths of Agentforce Vibes IDE

  • Full-featured browser IDE
  • Better for building complete solutions, not just investigating issues
  • Supports CLI, GitHub, AI workflows, and testing/deploying against scratch orgs, sandboxes, and Developer Edition orgs

Use Web Console when…

  • you are already in the org and need to peek under the hood
  • you want to run SOQL or inspect query behavior
  • you need to review logs
  • you want to make a small, targeted fix
  • you want to inspect code in production safely
  • speed and context matter more than a full dev environment

Use Agentforce Vibes IDE when…

  • you are doing feature development
  • you need a full IDE experience
  • you are working across multiple files/components
  • you need CLI, GitHub, or AI-assisted development
  • you are working in a source-driven team workflow

Takeaway

  • Use Web Console for quick, in-context investigation and edits
  • Use Agentforce Vibes IDE for full-fidelity development

Developer Console will continue to coexist with Web Console for now, so this is not a sudden transition. Our goal is for Web Console to become the modern way to handle the quick-debug, query, and edit workflows developers have long used Developer Console for. If a key workflow is missing, that feedback is exactly what we want.

    @Ravi Grover Not sure what you mean. Tested it just now and I was able to open Web Console, go into Org Browser and retrieve all LightningComponentBundle in the org (LWC) and they opened correctly in the editor.

Hi Trailblazer Community, 

 

I’m looking for clarification on the transition from legacy Code Builder to Agentforce Vibes IDE, specifically for production-launched Code Builder environments. 

 

In my production org, I can still navigate to the Code Builder Dashboard and launch Code Builder. The dashboard shows the retirement warning stating that legacy Code Builder support ends April 14, 2026, and that users should begin transitioning to Agentforce Vibes IDE. 

 

However, when I launch Code Builder from production, the IDE that opens appears to already be the Agentforce Vibes IDE experience. The UI includes Agentforce Vibes branding, MCP servers, Agentforce Vibes walkthroughs, and Salesforce DX tooling. I can also see my Salesforce DX project structure, including LWC metadata under force-app/main/default/lwc. 

 

When I run sf org display, the target org is my production org. 

 

My question is: 

 

After legacy Code Builder support ends, will Salesforce still support launching a full Agentforce Vibes IDE workspace from a production org, or will production users be expected to use Web Console for production investigation and use Agentforce Vibes IDE only from sandbox / Developer Edition orgs? 

 

The reason I’m asking is that my workflow includes both production investigation and LWC development/inspection. Web Console appears useful for SOQL, logs, Anonymous Apex, and production-safe code inspection, but it does not seem like a full replacement for a project-based IDE workflow involving LWC files, metadata, Salesforce CLI, and multi-file development. 

 

I’m trying to understand the intended future-state workflow for users who currently rely on production-launched Code Builder for: 

 

  • inspecting production-connected metadata
  • reviewing LWC files
  • running Salesforce CLI commands
  • querying production data for troubleshooting
  • validating behavior against production records
  • then building/testing changes safely in sandbox

 

Is the current production-launched Agentforce Vibes-style IDE experience expected to remain available after the legacy Code Builder cutoff, or is the supported path moving to: 

 

  • Web Console for production investigation
  • Agentforce Vibes IDE for sandbox / Developer Edition development?

 

Any clarification on the supported post-retirement workflow would be appreciated.

Hello all! 

 

I wanted to ask a question about how Agentforce Vibes can be used for testing. 

 

I see there are many posts and training material on how Vibes can be used for quick developments and deploys, but haven't seen really any extensive content on how the results of the new configurations are tested. 

 

My question is: is it useful to also use Agentforce Vibe to test the new developments using a battery the Secenario-Based Tests so they can run automatically or should we still maintinain the classic manual/data import for testing? 

 

Thanks

    Hello Alberto, 

     

    A lot of the hype around Agentforce Vibes is focused on building fast, not so much on testing properly. Right now, Vibes isn’t really designed to replace your traditional testing strategy. It’s great for quickly validating behavior, trying scenarios, and doing lightweight checks, but it’s not a full-blown automated testing framework where you define a structured suite of scenario-based tests that run consistently across environments.

    So in practice, what most teams are doing is using Vibes for exploratory and rapid validation—basically simulating user interactions and seeing how the agent responds—while still relying on classic testing approaches for anything critical. That means manual QA, controlled data setups, and sometimes automated tests via Apex or external tools. If you try to rely only on Vibes, you’ll run into gaps like lack of repeatability, version control over test cases, and proper regression coverage.

    Hope this helps!

Question regarding transition from code builder to Agentforce Vibes IDE on Gov cloud

    Great question about the Code Builder to Agentforce Vibes IDE transition on Government Cloud.

    Current Status for Government Cloud: As of early 2026, Agentforce Vibes IDE (formerly Code Builder 2.0) is not yet generally available on Government Cloud (GovCloud/FedRAMP). The banner warning you're seeing (end of Code Builder support on April 14, 2026) applies to commercial cloud orgs.

    For Government Cloud customers:

    1. Code Builder will remain available on GovCloud past the April 14 commercial deadline. Salesforce has communicated that GovCloud timelines are typically separate and follow compliance review periods.
    2. Check your Account Executive or Success Manager for the specific GovCloud transition timeline — they receive region-specific roadmap communications.
    3. Alternative IDE options: While awaiting Vibes IDE support on GovCloud, you can continue using VS Code with the Salesforce Extension Pack and the Salesforce CLI locally, which fully supports GovCloud orgs.
    4. Monitor the release notes: Check the Salesforce GovCloud release notes at help.salesforce.com for announcements specific to FedRAMP/GovCloud IDE support.

    In short: GovCloud orgs should not be immediately impacted by the April 14 Code Builder sunset that applies to commercial orgs.
