Use to generate a package.xml (and optionally destructiveChanges.xml / Pre / Post) from a source dir, a component list, or org introspection.

# platform-manifest-generate
Produce a Salesforce metadata manifest — `package.xml` (or one of the destructive variants) — from local source, an org, or an explicit component list. This skill is purely about authoring the manifest file. Hand off to `platform-metadata-deploy` or `platform-destructive-deploy` once the file exists.

## Tool Restrictions
**Use ONLY the Bash tool** to run `sf project generate manifest`, and the `Write` tool for the hand-built fallback path. Do NOT use MCP tools.
