# Metadata Experts MCP Server

**note:** Available in: Production, Developer, sandbox, and scratch orgs that have MCPService permission enabled.

## Supported Editions

- Developer
- Enterprise

## Overview

The Metadata Experts MCP Server is a Salesforce hosted MCP (Model Context Protocol) server designed for high-quality metadata generation. It provides the `execute_metadata_action` tool, which handles core business logic for registered metadata types.

## Activate in Your Org

Before you can use the Metadata Experts server in Agentforce Vibes, your admin must activate it in org Setup:

1. From Setup, enter "MCP" in the Quick Find box, then select **MCP Servers**.
2. Navigate to **metadata-experts** in the server list and click **Activate**.

## Enable in Agentforce Vibes

After your admin activates the server in org Setup, if disabled, enable it in Agentforce Vibes:

1. Open the Agentforce Vibes panel and click the **Toolkit** tab.
2. Click **MCP Servers**.
3. Find **Metadata Experts** under the "Salesforce Platform" group.
4. Click the server and toggle it on.

Verify that it shows a "Connected" status with available tools.

## How Skills and MCP Tools Work Together

In Agentforce Vibes, Skills and MCP tools collaborate to generate high-quality Salesforce metadata. Skills interpret your intent and guide the task, while MCP tools handle the underlying execution.

Salesforce metadata skills are enabled by default and work alongside the Metadata Experts MCP server to deliver accurate results. For example, when you ask the agent to generate a Validation Rule, Agentforce Vibes automatically selects the appropriate Skill based on your request and uses the `execute_metadata_action` tool to complete the task.

To view and manage Skills:

1. Click the ⚖️ icon at the bottom of the Agentforce Vibes panel.
2. Open the **Skills** tab.

## MCP Server Details

| Server Name               | Tool Name               | Tool Description                                                                            |
| :------------------------ | :---------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| platform/metadata-experts | execute_metadata_action | Executes core business logic for Salesforce metadata experts for registered metadata types. |

## Considerations

- **Admin activation required**—the server won't appear in Agentforce Vibes until your admin activates it in org Setup.
- **Edition restrictions**—only available in Developer and Enterprise editions.
- **Beta status**—functionality may change. Review generated metadata before deploying to production.
