Accelerate Your AgentScript Migration - Community Tool for Agentforce

Migrating to Salesforce's new AgentScript format? A community tool can now generate 85% of your migration code automatically!

Salesforce's AgentScript is powerful, but migrating existing UI-based agents can feel overwhelming. This new community tool in GenAI Explorer helps teams adopt AgentScript faster by automatically generating production-ready YAML from your existing Agentforce configurations.

TLDR;​

Here is a 30s demo

🎯 The AgentScript Migration Challenge​

Salesforce's AgentScript represents a major shift in how we build agents - from UI-based configuration to code-based development. While this brings huge benefits (version control, code review, CI/CD), the migration path isn't straightforward:

Result: Many teams delay adopting AgentScript because migration feels like too much work.

💡 How This Community Tool Helps​

The AgentScript Migration Tool in GenAI Explorer bridges this gap by:

✅ Accelerating Migration (85% Automated)​

Generate complete agent scripts automatically from your UI configurations:

• Config and system blocks
• All variables converted to YAML
• Initial topics routing logic (very basic, based on scope)
• Actions with parameters
• Proper Salesforce formatting

✅ Teaching by Example​

Learn AgentScript by seeing your own configurations converted:

• Study the generated structure
• Understand YAML patterns
• See how UI maps to code
• Learn best practices

✅ Ensuring Spec Compliance​

Generated code follows Salesforce Agent Script Recipes:

• Python-style booleans (True/False)
• Compact action notation
• Multi-line instruction format
• Proper protocol handling

🚀 Migration Time Savings​

Plus reduced learning curve as team members learn from generated examples!

📋 How It Works​

Step 1: Open Your Agent​

Navigate to any GenAI Planner Definition in GenAI Explorer.

Step 2: Generate AgentScript​

Click "Generate Agent Script" button.

Step 3: Study the Code​

Review the complete YAML structure - this is your learning opportunity!

Step 4: Add Business Logic (15%)​

The generated script is 85% complete. You add:

• Detailed reasoning instructions
• Specific business rules
• Custom error handling
• Advanced routing logic

Step 5: Deploy & Test​

Save to your project, deploy to sandbox, test thoroughly.

🎓 Example: What Gets Generated​

Here's a simplified example of what the tool creates:

# Generated automatically from your Agentforce configuration

system:
    instructions: "You are a helpful customer support assistant..."
    messages:
        welcome: "Hi there! How can I help you today?"
        error: "Sorry, something went wrong..."

config:
    developer_name: "customer_support_assistant"
    default_agent_user: "agentforce@salesforce.com"
    description: "Assists customers with orders and billing"

variables:
    user_email: mutable string
    order_id: mutable string = ""
    verified: mutable boolean = False

start_agent topic_selector:
    description: "Welcome and route to appropriate topic"
    reasoning:
        actions:
            go_to_orders: @utils.transition to @topic.Orders
            go_to_billing: @utils.transition to @topic.Billing

topic Orders:
    description: "Handle order-related inquiries"
    actions:
        lookup_order:
            description: "Look up order by ID"
            inputs:
                order_id: string
            outputs:
                order_summary: string
            target: "flow://GetOrderDetails"

85% done! You just need to add detailed reasoning instructions.

🌟 Why Community Tools Matter​

Salesforce's AgentScript is the future of agent development, but the community needs practical support for adoption:

🤝 Bridge the Gap​

Help teams transition without overwhelming complexity.

📚 Practical Learning​

Learn by doing - see your configs transformed, not just reading docs.

⚡ Reduce Friction​

Make migration feel achievable instead of daunting.

🎯 Enable Innovation​

Faster adoption = faster innovation with AgentScript's full capabilities.

📖 Understanding the New AgentScript Approach​

Before (UI-Based)​

• ❌ Click through Salesforce Setup
• ❌ No version control
• ❌ Hard to review changes
• ❌ Manual deployment
• ❌ Environment drift

After (AgentScript)​

• ✅ Code in your IDE
• ✅ Git integration
• ✅ Standard code reviews
• ✅ CLI deployment
• ✅ Consistent across orgs

🛠️ Best Practices for Migration​

1. Start Small​

Begin with 1-2 non-critical agents:

• Learn the patterns
• Build team confidence
• Scale gradually

2. Use as Learning Tool​

Study generated code to understand:

• YAML structure
• AgentScript patterns
• Best practices
• How UI maps to code

3. Migrate Progressively​

Don't migrate everything at once:

• Pick simple agents first
• Test thoroughly
• Document learnings
• Train team members

4. Test Thoroughly​

Always test in sandbox:

• Compare behavior with UI version
• Validate all topics
• Check action parameters
• Test error scenarios

5. Embrace Code Practices​

Treat AgentScript like any code:

• Version control (Git)
• Code reviews
• Feature branches
• Documentation
