Individual skill
platform-value-set-generate
Use to create, generate, or validate a Salesforce GlobalValueSet (reusable picklist shared across fields) or customize a StandardValueSet (built-in picklists like Industry, Lead Source, Opportunity Stage). Trigger on global/standard value set, reusable picklist, .globalValueSet-meta.xml or .standardValueSet-meta.xml, or deploy errors adding values to a standard picklist. DO NOT TRIGGER for a one-off inline picklist on a single field with no reuse — use platform-custom-field-generate.

## Overview
Generates and validates the two reusable picklist value-set metadata types — **GlobalValueSet** (a new reusable set shared across fields) and **StandardValueSet** (customizing a built-in catalog picklist like Industry or Lead Source) — and wires a CustomField to one via `<valueSetName>`.
For authoritative Metadata API type, field, and enum details beyond this skill, use the `platform-metadata-api-context-get` skill.
### Scope
- **In scope:** creating a GlobalValueSet, customizing a StandardValueSet, referencing either from a field, and the related deployment errors.
- **Out of scope:** a one-off inline picklist on a single field with no reuse → use **`platform-custom-field-generate`** (inline `<valueSetDefinition>`). Generating the *field* that references a value set is also `platform-custom-field-generate`'s job; this skill produces the value set itself.
**Two different metadata types — do not confuse them:**
| Concern | GlobalValueSet | StandardValueSet |
