2.3.8.8 release notes

2.3.8.8

• Issue 2843 - Integrated Agentforce Vibes-like functionality using Cline, bundled Salesforce-specific rules including those from Salesforce , and the Salesforce DX MCP Server. A demonstration video is available to help explain installation, configuration, and usage. Note that it's also possible to achieve similar functionality with other agentic AI tool plugins for JetBrains IDEs as documented in the linked issue.
  
  Please be aware of a few quirks and considerations that I've observed with Cline:
  • If you use a Windows/ARM64 machine, the Cline plugin in the JetBrains plugin repository is currently incompatible. I have created a patched build that works properly on that OS/architecture. IC can help download and install that build until the linked issue is resolved and a compatible version is available via the plugin repository.
  • If the Salesforce DX MCP Server is timing out, try running it once directly from the command-line first (use npx.cmd instead of npm on Windows):

    npx -y @salesforce/mcp --orgs ALLOW_ALL_ORGS --toolsets all

    Once started successfully, use Ctrl+C to terminate that instance and retry it from Cline.
  • If you see a message from Cline about not having sufficient credits when using a free model, switch temporarily to any other model and back to the original free model, then retry the prompt. I have already logged this as a bug in the Cline public issue tracker.
  
  
• Issue 2891 - Prospective performance improvement for LWC component attributes in free JetBrains IDEs, particularly against LWC components with larger JavaScript/TypeScript files.
• Updated the bundled system symbols that are used when the completions?type=apex Tooling API resource fails due to an internal server error. Added more concrete field data types for Apex classes in the ConnectApi namespace. Both of these changes require the OST to be regenerated.
• Several other related fixes and improvements.
