Platform Flexipage Generate

Generates Salesforce Lightning page (FlexiPage) metadata using the SF CLI's template command as a starting point, then helps you add components, validate structure, and fix deployment errors. The workflow is opinionated: always bootstrap with the CLI for new pages (never hand-write XML), do a dry-run deploy to catch issues early, then layer on additional components if needed. It's built around avoiding the common FlexiPage mistakes like duplicate identifiers, wrong field reference formats, or broken facet nesting. If you're building RecordPages, AppPages, or HomePages and want guardrails around the finicky XML structure, this keeps you from shooting yourself in the foot.

Specification

Overview

CRITICAL: When creating NEW FlexiPages, you MUST ALWAYS start with the CLI template command. Never create FlexiPage XML from scratch - the CLI provides valid structure, proper regions, and correct component configuration that prevents deployment errors.

Generate Lightning pages (RecordPage, AppPage, HomePage) using CLI bootstrapping for component discovery and configuration.

Quick Start Workflow

Step 1: Bootstrap with CLI

MANDATORY FOR NEW PAGES: This step is NOT optional. Always use the CLI template command when creating a new FlexiPage. The CLI generates valid XML structure, proper regions, and correct metadata that prevents common deployment errors. Only skip this step if you're editing an existing FlexiPage file.
