service-omni-channel-inventory-analyze

SkillCommunication

Lets your agent list the Salesforce service channels configured in an org and see how each one routes work.

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the service-omni-channel-inventory-analyze skill

About this skill

Use to inventory configured Omni-Channel instances across Voice, Email, Chat, SMS, Facebook, WhatsApp, and In-App, including each channel's Queue, Flow, or Other routing target, without changing the org. TRIGGER when: list Omni channels, inventory Omni routing, inspect channel routing targets, analy

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by forcedotcom/sf-skills in skills/service-omni-channel-inventory-analyze/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Read the org's complete Omni-Channel setup-home inventory without making changes. The supported headless operation combines Voice, Email, Live Chat, and Messaging channel families and returns their derived routing type and routing target. Use this analyzer before changing an unfamiliar org or when a user asks what Omni channels and routing are already configured.

Inputs

bash scripts/analyze.sh <org-alias> [--type Voice|Email|Chat|SMS|Facebook|WhatsApp|InApp]
  • org-alias is required and must already be authenticated with Salesforce CLI.
  • --type is optional and case-insensitive. It filters the returned inventory without changing the source data.

Preconditions and safety

  • Target org authenticated through sf CLI.
  • API v66.0 or later.
  • The running user must have View Setup and Configuration and Customize Application.
  • This skill is read-only. The shared Headless dispatcher uses an HTTP POST envelope, but the invoked getChannelInstances controller action performs no org mutation.
  • Use sf api request rest; never extract or print an access token.

Run

Invoke scripts/analyze.sh with the target org and optional channel type. The script POSTs the approved OmniChannelInstancesController.getChannelInstances envelope to the shared Headless dispatcher, validates the inner response, optionally filters it, and returns a stable summary plus the matching channel instances.

The inventory includes these source fields when the platform supplies them:

FieldMeaning
id, labelChannel identity and display label
omniChannelInstanceTypeVoice, Email, Chat, SMS, Facebook, WhatsApp, or InApp
routingTypeQueue, Flow, or Other
routingRequirementId, routingRequirementLabelQueue, flow, or other routing target
channelUrl, routingRequirementUrlSetup navigation links synthesized by the platform
icon, messagesDisplay metadata and platform-provided notices

Output contract

The script emits one JSON object:

  • skill: service-omni-channel-inventory-analyze
  • status: analyzed or blocked
  • filter: canonical channel type or null
  • summary.total_configured: number of instances returned by the platform before filtering
  • summary.returned: number of instances in instances
  • summary.by_channel_type: counts for the returned inventory
  • summary.by_routing_type: Queue, Flow, and Other counts for the returned inventory
  • instances: normalized channel instance objects
  • blocking_issue: actionable failure reason or null

An empty instances array with status: analyzed is a valid inventory result. Authentication, authorization, endpoint, or malformed-response failures return status: blocked and exit non-zero; never reinterpret them as an empty org.

Boundaries

  • Do not replace this operation with independent SOQL queries. No single public object API reproduces the platform's cross-family aggregation, routing-type derivation, and setup URL generation.
  • Do not infer missing routing fields. Preserve null when the platform does not supply a value.
  • Do not use the returned setup URLs as mutation endpoints.
  • For configuration changes, hand off to the appropriate leaf skill only after presenting the inventory to the user.
