description

Deploy, download, and manage cartridge code versions on B2C Commerce instances. Use this skill whenever the user needs to upload or download cartridges to/from a sandbox, activate or delete code versions, watch for local file changes during development, or deploy a subset of cartridges. Also use when pushing code to an instance, pulling code from an instance, or setting up a dev workflow with live reload -- even if they just say 'push my code to the sandbox', 'download the code', or 'how do I activate the new version'.

B2C Code Skill

Use the b2c CLI to deploy, download, and manage code versions on Salesforce B2C Commerce instances.

Tip: If b2c is not installed globally, use npx @salesforce/b2c-cli instead (e.g., npx @salesforce/b2c-cli code deploy).

Configuration & Authentication

The CLI auto-discovers the target instance and credentials from SFCC_* environment variables, dw.json in the current or parent directories, ~/.mobify, package.json, and configuration plugins. Flags like --server, --client-id, --client-secret, --username, and --password are usually unnecessary — only pass them to override what's auto-detected.

Run b2c setup inspect to see the resolved configuration and which source provided each value (use --json for scripting, --unmask to reveal secrets). For precedence rules and troubleshooting, see the b2c-cli:b2c-config skill.

Examples

Deploy Cartridges

# deploy all cartridges from current directory

b2c code deploy --server my-sandbox.demandware.net --code-version v1


b2c code deploy --reload


b2c code deploy --delete --reload


b2c code deploy -c app_storefront_base -c plugin_applepay


b2c code deploy -x test_cartridge
