Use this skill when the hard part is not "how do I automate" but "what is the right record-triggered pattern for this object and this event?" The purpose is to choose the correct trigger context (before-save vs after-save), control how often the flow runs (entry criteria + prior-value checks), align with Salesforce order-of-execution semantics (so the flow plays well with Validation Rules, Apex triggers, and duplicate rules), and know when the answer is to escalate to Apex rather than force more logic into Flow.
Record Triggered Flow Patterns is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/record-triggered-flow-patterns/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when designing or reviewing Salesforce record-triggered Flows, especially before-save vs after-save behavior, entry criteria, recursion avoidance, and when to escalate to Apex. Triggers: 'before save vs after save', '$Record__Prior', 'record-triggered flow', 'order of execution', 'flow recursion'.
The Record Triggered Flow Patterns Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 69,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
