Enterprise software titan Salesforce is poised to capitalize on the burgeoning trend of 'vibe-coding' – where developers articulate their needs in natural language and AI agents then generate the corresponding code – with its newly unveiled AI-powered developer tool.
The company officially announced its latest offering, Agentforce Vibes, on Wednesday. This innovative coding tool is designed to empower developers to work with greater autonomy on Salesforce applications and agents by automating much of the technical implementation. Agentforce Vibes promises to support developers through every stage, from the initial app idea and building phases to observability, all while embedding robust enterprise security and governance controls.
Central to this new tool is Vibe Codey, an autonomous AI coding agent. Seamlessly connected to a company’s existing Salesforce account, Vibe Codey can leverage and reuse previously written code and adhere to established coding guidelines, ensuring new applications are consistent with existing products.
Dan Fernandez, Salesforce’s Vice President of Product for Developer Services, conveyed to TechCrunch that Agentforce Vibes’ deep integration with a company's current Salesforce account offers enterprises an ideal scenario. It enables them to explore vibe-coding without the typical security concerns or the burden of starting each new project from scratch.
"We’re trying to give you everything," Fernandez asserted, underscoring the tool's comprehensive nature. He elaborated that users are spared the time-consuming process of setting up model context protocols – systems that facilitate secure communication between AI models and external tools – along with development environments and various tools. Instead, everything, including AI requests to get started, comes prebuilt and ready, a key differentiator that significantly lowers the barrier to entry.
Fernandez further clarified that Agentforce Vibes represents not Salesforce's first foray into vibe-coding, but rather the latest sophisticated addition to its expanding suite of AI developer tools. This release marks a significant convergence, bringing together powerful capabilities.
"We are taking the power of the client tools and Agentforce for developers and making it tailored to Salesforce development," Fernandez explained, emphasizing an end-to-end enterprise vibe coding experience tailored for the "agentic enterprise."
The company's decision to utilize Cline within Agentforce Vibes followed an evaluation of numerous open-source coding tools. Fernandez noted that Cline's strong support for Model Context Protocols (MCP), crucial for AI models to securely interact with external tools and data, was a decisive factor.
This launch arrives at an intriguing moment for the broader vibe-coding industry. However, potential cost pressures often associated with such innovations are mitigated when vibe coding is integrated into a larger product suite, as is the case with Salesforce’s Agentforce Vibes.
Each Salesforce organization will receive 50 requests per day utilizing OpenAI’s GPT-5 model. Any additional requests beyond this limit will then be processed through a Salesforce-hosted Qwen 3.0 model. Salesforce is currently offering Agentforce Vibes free of charge to its existing users, with priced usage plans anticipated for the future.
