Install Salesforce in Kiro CLI

What you need first

• Kiro CLI, installed.
• Docker, which gives the docker command the server starts with.
• Your own values for YOUR_AUTH_MODE,YOUR_SALESFORCE_CLIENT_ID,YOUR_SALESFORCE_CLIENT_SECRET,YOUR_SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL.

Steps

1. Open ~/.codex/config.toml, or create it. The Codex CLI, its IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app share this file.
2. Add this table at the end of the file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "salesforce-mcp": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "-e", "AUTH_MODE", "-e", "SALESFORCE_CLIENT_ID", "-e", "SALESFORCE_CLIENT_SECRET", "-e", "SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL", "ghcr.io/wyre-technology/salesforce-mcp:v1.0.3"],
      "env": { "AUTH_MODE": "YOUR_AUTH_MODE", "SALESFORCE_CLIENT_ID": "YOUR_SALESFORCE_CLIENT_ID", "SALESFORCE_CLIENT_SECRET": "YOUR_SALESFORCE_CLIENT_SECRET", "SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL": "YOUR_SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL" }
    }
  }
}

3. Replace YOUR_AUTH_MODE,YOUR_SALESFORCE_CLIENT_ID,YOUR_SALESFORCE_CLIENT_SECRET,YOUR_SALESFORCE_INSTANCE_URL with your own values.
4. Save the file and restart Kiro CLI.

Check it worked

Ask Kiro CLI: List the tools of salesforce-mcp.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon

Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Kiro CLI.

The server starts, but its tools fail

A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.

Nothing changes after a restart

The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
