Platform Tracing Agentforce Configure

Generates the singleton AgentforcePlatformTracingSettings metadata file to pipe Agentforce agent execution trace spans into Data Cloud's ingestion pipeline. You'd use this when you want observability data from your agents flowing to Data Cloud for analysis, introduced in Spring '25 API v68.0. It's a simple boolean toggle, but the gotcha is it silently does nothing unless your org already has both Data Cloud provisioned and the PlatformObservability permission active, neither of which you can set via metadata. The skill warns you about prerequisites upfront and spits out the settings file in the right spot. Clean delegation too, it won't confuse this with regular Platform Tracing for TraceSpanEvent.

Platform Tracing — Agentforce Configure

Generate AgentforcePlatformTracingSettings metadata to enable or disable forwarding of Agentforce agent execution trace spans to Data Cloud's ingestion pipeline. This is a singleton Settings type with one boolean field introduced in API v68.0 (Spring '25).

Scope

In scope: Generating AgentforcePlatformTracing.settings-meta.xml to enable or disable Agentforce agent tracing.
Out of scope: Platform Tracing for TraceSpanEvent (use platform-tracing-configure). Event Log Files. Change Data Capture. Org permission provisioning. Data Cloud provisioning.

Prerequisites

Before generating, inform the user of these requirements. The skill cannot check org state, but deploying without these prerequisites means the setting has no effect:
