The README identifies it as a command-line interface to force.com and documents commands for login, metadata import/export, SOQL queries, bulk APIs, Apex, packages, records, limits, and org inspection. ### Project history The project is maintained in the ForceCLI/force repository. Its README labels the documented generation as force CLI v1.3.0, while the repository tag list shows later v1.x releases, including v1.13.0. ### Adoption history The README documents precompiled binaries from the GitHub release page or CLI home page, plus source installation with Go. It also documents reuse of SFDX usernames or aliases when a stored force session is unavailable, placing the tool alongside Salesforce DX workflows rather than only older standalone Force.com usage. ### How it is used Users authenticate with force login, list and switch saved logins, inspect objects, run SOQL, import and export metadata directories, deploy metadata, run Apex tests, and interact with Bulk API 1.0 and 2.0. The generated command docs expose a --config option whose default directory is .force, but no specific config file path is documented. ### Why package nerds care Force CLI is significant as a standalone Go-era Salesforce CLI that predates or coexists with SFDX-style tooling. For package managers, it is a single executable that wraps authenticated cloud workflows, release binaries, and local metadata directory conventions. ### Timeline - v1.3.0: README documents the command set under the force CLI v1.3.0 heading. - v1.13.0: official Git tags include a later v1.13.0 release line. ### Related projects - The README and command docs relate Force CLI to Force.com, Salesforce, SFDX authentication, Salesforce metadata directories, Apex, SOQL, and Bulk API workflows. ### Sources - - - ## Security Notes No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for forcecli.
