switching-org

SKILL.md

Steps

Identify the org: the user provides a username or alias (orgIdentifier). If not provided, run sf org list to show authenticated orgs and ask the user which one to use.

Set the default org:

Local (default): sf config set target-org <orgIdentifier>

Applies only within the current project directory. Use this for normal project work.

Global (only if user explicitly requests): sf config set target-org <orgIdentifier> --global

Applies system-wide across all directories. Use when working outside a project or when the user asks for global scope.

If this fails, report the error and suggest running sf org login web if the org may not be authorized.

Verify:

sf config get target-org --json

Note: the JSON output does not include a scope/location field — it cannot confirm whether the value is local or global. Confirm the value only, e.g.: target-org is now set to: <value>

If it fails, report the error and advise running sf config get target-org.
