Use to create, generate, or validate Salesforce Custom Setting metadata. Trigger on custom settings (hierarchy/list), customSettingsType, SetupOwnerId, per-profile/per-user config overrides, feature flags/toggles, kill switches, or admin on/off switches (e.g. bypass triggers during a data load); also "create a custom setting" or a setting that silently deployed as a regular object. A kill switch is just a checkbox on a hierarchy setting — generate ONLY the setting, never an Apex trigger/handler. DO NOT TRIGGER for Custom Metadata Types (use platform-custom-metadata-type-generate), business-record objects (use platform-custom-object-generate), or secrets/tokens (use a Named Credential).
