Core Responsibilities

Product Creation: Create EPC Product2 records with consistent naming, lifecycle dates, status, and classification fields.
Attribute Modeling: Define category-based attributes, defaults, valid value sets, display sequences, and required flags.
Offer Bundle Modeling: Compose offers with child products using
```
%vlocity_namespace%__ProductChildItem__c
```
records and clear quantity rules.
Companion Metadata Generation: Generate and align all related bundle files (pricing, object field attributes, orchestration/decomposition, overrides, parent keys) from the same offer baseline.
DataPack Consistency: Keep record source keys, global keys, lookup objects, and namespace fields internally consistent for deployment.

Invocation Rules (Mandatory)

Route to this skill whenever the prompt intent matches either of these:

Create a product bundle:
- User asks to create/build/generate/model an EPC offer bundle.
- User asks for Product2 offer setup with Product Child Items.
- User asks to generate bundle DataPack JSON artifacts from templates/examples.
Score or review an existing product bundle:
- User asks to score/assess/validate/audit an existing EPC bundle.
- User asks to apply the 120-point rubric to existing Product2/ProductChildItem (PCI)/attribute payloads.
- User asks for risk findings, quality gaps, or fix recommendations on bundle metadata.

Instruction priority: treat these two intents as direct triggers for

modeling-omnistudio-epc-catalog

, even if the prompt is brief and does not mention EPC by name.

Workflow (Create/Review)

Phase 0: Prerequisites

Before proceeding, verify:

Salesforce Industries org with EPC enabled
Authenticated org alias in sf CLI — run
```
sf org display --target-org <alias>
```
to confirm
Namespace model identified:
```
%vlocity_namespace%
```
,
```
vlocity_cmt
```
, or Core

If any prerequisite is unmet, ask the user to supply the org alias or namespace before continuing.

Phase 1: Identify Catalog Intent

Ask for:

Product type: spec product or offer bundle
Domain taxonomy: Family, Type/SubType, category path, and channel
Attribute requirements: required/optional, picklist values, default values
Bundle composition: child products, quantity constraints, optional vs required
Target org namespace model:
```
%vlocity_namespace%
```
,
```
vlocity_cmt
```
, or Core

Idempotency check: If a

ProductCode

is provided, verify no matching Product2 already exists before generating artifacts:

bash

sf data query --query "SELECT Id, Name, ProductCode FROM Product2 WHERE ProductCode = '<code>'" --target-org <alias>

If a match is found, ask the user whether this is a net-new record or an update to the existing one before continuing.

Phase 1A: Clarifying Questions for Complete Bundle (Mandatory)

Before generating a new offer bundle payload, ask clarifying questions until all required inputs are known.

Required clarification checklist:

Offer identity
- What is the offer name and
```
ProductCode
```
  ?
- Is this net-new or an update to an existing Product2 offer?
Catalog classification
- What are Family, Type/SubType, and channel/sales context values?
- Should
```
SpecificationType=Offer
```
  and
```
SpecificationSubType=Bundle
```
  be set now?

Lifecycle and availability

What are
```
EffectiveDate
```
and
```
SellingStartDate
```
?

Should

IsActive

and

%vlocity_namespace%__IsOrderable__c

be true at creation time?

Child product composition
- Which child products are included (name/code for each)?
- For each child, what are required/optional semantics and sequence order?
Quantity behavior per child
- What are
```
MinQuantity
```
  ,
```
MaxQuantity
```
  , and default
```
Quantity
```
  ?
- Should
```
%vlocity_namespace%__MinMaxDefaultQty__c
```
  be enforced for each line?
Attribute model
- Which attributes are required vs optional?
- What are valid values, defaults, display types, and display sequences?
Pricing and companion artifacts
- Should pricebook and price list entries be generated now?
- Should orchestration/decomposition/override/parent-key files be included in the same request?
Namespace and keying
- Which namespace convention should be used (
```
%vlocity_namespace%
```
  ,
```
vlocity_cmt
```
  , or Core)?
- Are there existing global keys/source keys to preserve?

If any required checklist item is unanswered, do not generate final bundle files yet; ask focused follow-up questions first.

Phase 2: Build Product2 Backbone

For every new EPC record, define:

```
Name
```
```
ProductCode
```
(unique, stable, environment-agnostic)
```
%vlocity_namespace%__GlobalKey__c
```
(stable UUID-style key)

%vlocity_namespace%__SpecificationType__c

and

%vlocity_namespace%__SpecificationSubType__c

%vlocity_namespace%__Status__c

and date fields (

EffectiveDate

SellingStartDate

)

IsActive

and

%vlocity_namespace%__IsOrderable__c

Use

assets/product2-offer-template.json

as baseline structure.

Phase 3: Add Attributes

When attributes are required:

Populate

%vlocity_namespace%__AttributeMetadata__c

category and

productAttributes

records.

Populate
```
%vlocity_namespace%__AttributeDefaultValues__c
```
with attribute code to default value mapping.
Create
```
%vlocity_namespace%__AttributeAssignment__c
```
records with:
- category linkage
- attribute linkage
- UI display type (dropdown, etc.)
- valid values and default marker

Use

assets/attribute-assignment-template.json

as the assignment baseline.

Phase 4: Build Offer Bundles

For offers:

Keep parent

Product2

record as offer (

SpecificationType=Offer

SpecificationSubType=Bundle

Create root

%vlocity_namespace%__ProductChildItem__c

row (

IsRootProductChildItem=true

Add child rows per component with:
- parent and child references
- sequence and line number
- min/max/default quantity behavior (
```
MinMaxDefaultQty
```
  ,
```
MinQuantity
```
  ,
```
MaxQuantity
```
  ,
```
Quantity
```
  )
Use override rows only when behavior differs from inherited/default behavior.

Use

assets/product-child-item-template.json

for child relationship structure.

For complete bundle payloads, also align and include:

```
assets/pricebook-entries-template.json
```
```
assets/price-list-entries-template.json
```

assets/object-field-attributes-template.json

assets/orchestration-scenarios-template.json

assets/decomposition-relationships-template.json

assets/compiled-attribute-overrides-template.json

assets/override-definitions-template.json

```
assets/parent-keys-template.json
```

Phase 4B: Generate Companion Metadata Files

When the user asks to generate a bundle, generate/update all companion files together as one coherent set:

```
pricebook-entries-template.json
```
and
```
price-list-entries-template.json
```
- Keep Product2 GlobalKey/ProductCode references aligned with the parent offer.
```
object-field-attributes-template.json
```
- Keep object class references and field mappings aligned with the same offer model.
```
orchestration-scenarios-template.json
```
and
```
decomposition-relationships-template.json
```
- Keep decomposition and orchestration artifacts consistent with bundle child items.
```
compiled-attribute-overrides-template.json
```
and
```
override-definitions-template.json
```
- Keep override keys and references aligned with attribute metadata and assignments.
```
parent-keys-template.json
```
- Keep parent linkage values synchronized with generated artifact keys.

Mandatory rule: do not generate only a partial subset when a full bundle payload is requested unless the user explicitly asks for a limited file scope.

Phase 5: Validate and Handoff

Read

assets/completion-block-template.txt

and fill in each field to produce the handoff summary block.

Output Expectations

For a full offer bundle request, the following files are produced:

File pattern	Content
`*_DataPack.json`	Product2 offer record
`*_AttributeAssignments.json`	Attribute category and assignment payloads
`*_ProductChildItems.json`	Root and child ProductChildItem (PCI) rows
`*_PricebookEntries.json`	Standard and custom pricebook entries
`*_PriceListEntries.json`	Price list entries
`*_ObjectFieldAttributes.json`	Object field mapping
`*_OrchestrationScenarios.json`	Orchestration metadata
`*_DecompositionRelationships.json`	Decomposition metadata
`*_CompiledAttributeOverrides.json`	Compiled attribute override payload
`*_OverrideDefinitions.json`	Override definition payload
`*_ParentKeys.json`	Parent key linkage

For spec product (non-bundle) requests, only the DataPack, AttributeAssignments, PricebookEntries, and PriceListEntries files are required.

If generation of any file fails, stop immediately. List every file successfully generated so far and instruct the user to delete the partial set before retrying the full bundle — partial bundles cause GlobalKey mismatches on DataPack import. Do not generate the remaining files until the user confirms the partial set has been removed and a fresh attempt can begin.

Gotchas

Issue	Resolution
Attribute default not in valid values list	Ensure the default value exists inside the `values[]` array — cart will reject invalid defaults at runtime
Root ProductChildItem row missing	Offer bundle traversal breaks without `IsRootProductChildItem=true` — always create the root row first
Mixed namespace convention in one payload	Pick one namespace style ( `%vlocity_namespace%` vs `vlocity_cmt` ) and apply it consistently across all files in the bundle
Duplicate display sequences in same attribute category	UI ordering conflict — use spaced values (10, 20, 30) to allow future inserts without collisions
`ProductCode` contains environment suffix	Breaks cross-org references — remove `_DEV` , `_UAT` , `_PROD` suffixes
Companion files generated with different offer names	Key mismatches break DataPack import — generate all companion files from the same baseline offer name and GlobalKey
DataPack import fails with `Key not found` error	A lookup object reference points to a GlobalKey absent in the target org — verify GlobalKey alignment across all companion files before import
DataPack import rolls back silently	Add `--verbose` during deployment and inspect the log for the specific record and field that triggered the rollback
Namespace mismatch between files in same bundle	Mixed `%vlocity_namespace%` and `vlocity_cmt` styles in one payload cause field resolution failures — enforce a single namespace style throughout

Generation Guardrails (Mandatory)

If any anti-pattern appears, stop and ask for confirmation before proceeding.

Anti-pattern	Why it fails	Required correction
Missing `ProductCode` or unstable code values	Breaks quote/cart references and package diffs	Use deterministic code convention
Hardcoded org-specific IDs in relationships	Fails across orgs/environments	Use lookup objects with matching keys/global keys
Offer bundle without root PCI row	Runtime bundle traversal issues	Add root `%vlocity_namespace%__ProductChildItem__c`
Attribute defaults not present in valid values	Invalid cart configuration defaults	Ensure default exists in allowed value set
Duplicate display sequences in same attribute category	UI ordering conflict	Enforce unique and spaced sequence values
Offer marked active with incomplete child references	Broken bundle at runtime	Complete and validate child link set before activation
Mixed naming styles ( `snake_case` , ad hoc abbreviations)	Reduces maintainability and discoverability	Enforce naming convention from references doc

Notes

This skill is intentionally DataPack-first and optimized for
```
vlocity/Product2/...
```
artifact authoring.
Keep
```
%vlocity_namespace%
```
placeholders intact in templates to preserve portability.
Prefer creating reusable spec products first, then assemble offers via child relationships.
