A comprehensive VS Code extension for Salesforce development featuring Apex notebooks, SObject code generation, schema analysis, and permission auditing tools.
Features
🏃♂️ Apex Notebooks
Execute Anonymous Apex scripts and SOQL queries directly within VS Code's native notebook interface. Supports:
- Anonymous Apex execution with syntax highlighting and error reporting
- SOQL query execution with formatted table results
- Interactive debugging with debug-only output
- Multi-cell execution with confirmation dialogs
- JSON output for raw query results
🔧 SObject Code Generation
Generate Apex code from Salesforce objects with three specialized generators:
- SObject to Apex: Generate basic Apex classes from SObject metadata
- SObject to Apex Parent-Child: Generate Apex code with parent-child relationship handling
- SObject to Apex Child-Parent: Generate Apex code with child-parent relationship handling
📊 Schema Analysis
Explore Salesforce object schemas with detailed field and relationship information:
- Field definitions with types, labels, and properties
- Relationship mappings and dependencies
- Org-wide defaults and sharing model information
- Interactive webview with searchable field lists
🔐 Permission Auditing
Comprehensive permission analysis tools for security auditing:
Object Permissions
- Permission Set analysis - View CRUD permissions across all permission sets
- Permission Set Group analysis - Aggregated permissions from permission set groups
- Profile permissions - User profile-based object access
- Org-wide defaults - Sharing model configuration
User Permissions
- Individual user analysis - Permission analysis for specific users
- Effective permissions - Combined permissions from profiles, permission sets, and groups
- Master-detail inheritance - Automatic detection of inherited permissions
- Real-time permission evaluation
Field Level Security (FLS)
- Field-by-field analysis - Read/Edit permissions for individual fields
- Permission set visibility - FLS settings across all permission sets
- Profile-based FLS - User profile field access controls
- Security gap identification - Highlight fields with insufficient access

Extension Settings
This extension contributes the following settings:
Apex Notebook Settings
anonymous-apex-notebook.apexConfirmDialogPreference: Controls when to show confirmation dialogs for Apex execution
Always - Always prompt before executing ApexOnly when running multiple - Only prompt when executing multiple cellsNever - Never prompt, execute immediately
anonymous-apex-notebook.enableSoqlJsonOutput: Display raw JSON output alongside formatted table results for SOQL queries

Architecture
The extension is built with a clean domain-driven architecture:
- Domain Layer: Business logic classes for permissions, schemas, and user management
- Service Layer: Business services for data processing and analysis
- Selector Layer: Data access objects for Salesforce API interactions
- UI Layer: Angular-based webview components for rich data visualization
- Notebook Integration: Native VS Code notebook controller and serializer
Security Features
- Input validation for all Salesforce identifiers and object names
- Safe Apex code generation with proper escaping and formatting
- Permission-aware analysis respecting user's current org access
- Error handling with detailed logging and user-friendly messages
Development
This extension uses:
- TypeScript for type-safe development
- Mocha + Sinon for comprehensive unit testing
- ESLint for code quality
- Salesforce APIs (@salesforce/core, @salesforce/apex-node)
- Semantic UI for webview styling
