Command Reference

sfdt ships 46 commands. They are grouped here by area — every table below is generated from the CLI’s own command registry (the catalog , regenerated on every command change), so this index cannot drift from the code. Every command accepts --help, and most operational commands accept --json for scripting and --dry-run to preview.
