Generate Salesforce Flows using the MCP tool execute_metadata_action. Use when the user asks to create, build, or generate a flow — including Screen, Autolaunched, Record-Triggered (before/after-save), Scheduled. Also trigger for flow-like requests such as \"when a record is created\", \"trigger daily at\", \"send an email when\", \"update the field when\", \"automate\", \"workflow\", or \"flow XML/metadata\". This is the only skill for Salesforce Flow generation.

When to use

• Create any type of Flow (Screen, Autolaunched, Record-Triggered, Scheduled)
• Generate Flow metadata XML
• Automate business processes without code
• Build user-guided workflows or background automation
• Troubleshoot deployment errors related to Flows

When not to use

• Manually create flow metadata XML
• Generate flow metadata outside of the 3-step pipeline
• Use any other tool, API, or method to generate flow metadata
