dx-org-snapshot-manage

ALWAYS USE THIS SKILL to create, check the status of, list, or delete scratch org snapshots. A snapshot is a point-in-time copy of a scratch org's metadata AND data, referenced by name in the `snapshot` field of a scratch org definition file. Use when the user asks to create/take a snapshot, check a snapshot's status or creation progress, list/show/view existing snapshots (including filtering for snapshots expiring soon), or delete/remove a snapshot. Requires a Dev Hub with Scratch Org Snapshots enabled. DO NOT TRIGGER for creating org shapes (use dx-org-shape-manage) or for creating scratch orgs, including from an existing snapshot via `--snapshot` (use dx-org-manage).

# dx-org-snapshot-manage

Coordinates the full lifecycle of Salesforce scratch org snapshots — **create**, **get** (status), **list**, and **delete** — via `sf org create snapshot`, `sf org get snapshot`, `sf org list snapshot`, and `sf org delete snapshot`. A snapshot is a point-in-time copy of a scratch org (its metadata **and** data) that you reference by name in a scratch org definition file to spin up new orgs from saved state.

## Tool Restrictions

**Use ONLY the Bash tool** to execute the `sf org ... snapshot` commands. Do NOT use MCP tools — ignore them completely.

**Output artifacts for eval/testing:** ALWAYS write the command's complete JSON response to a file when an output directory is available. Do NOT ask the user what file to write — this skill defines the filenames. After executing each command: (1) if the user specified an output path, write there immediately; (2) otherwise run `[ -d force-app/main/adk-eval-output/ ] && echo 'force-app/main/adk-eval-output'` to detect the eval directory; (3) write the command's full, unmodified JSON response to `<output-dir>/<filename>` using these filenames: `create-snapshot-result.json`, `get-snapshot-result.json`, `list-snapshots-result.json`, or `delete-snapshot-result.json`. This is the generated output — write it without asking. (4) If no output directory can be found by either check, include the command's complete, unmodified JSON response verbatim (e.g. in a fenced code block) in your final reply instead of skipping the artifact.
