Drive the sfdt CLI from VS Code: deploy, preflight, org monitoring & audit, docs, and the sfdt dashboard — all from the command palette and a dedicated Org Health sidebar.
Installation
Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press enter.
Drive the sfdt CLI from inside VS
Code. This extension is a thin, fast UI over the CLI — it does not reimplement
any logic, so it stays in lockstep with whatever version of sfdt you have on
your PATH.
Features
Org Health sidebar — a tree view that reads the latest sfdt audit and
sfdt monitor snapshots (logs/audit-latest.json, logs/monitor-latest.json)
and shows each check's status, summary, and findings. Click any check to
re-run just that check.
Command palette — SFDT: Run Command… lists the common operations
(preflight, audit, monitor, backup, drift, scan, quality, docs, deploy).
Dedicated commands exist for the most-used ones.
Embedded dashboard — SFDT: Open Dashboard spawns sfdt ui and shows the
full web dashboard in an editor tab.
Status bar — shows the active org and the worst monitor/audit status; click
to open the dashboard.
Requirements
The sfdt CLI installed and on your PATH (npm i -g @sfdt/cli), or set
sfdt.cliPath to its location.
A Salesforce DX project initialized with sfdt init.
