# Install or upgrade Neelverse SF 2.0 v0.4.0

## Install from ZIP

1. Extract this ZIP.
2. In VS Code, open Extensions.
3. Select the `...` menu, then **Install from VSIX...**.
4. Select `neelverse-sf-vscode-0.4.0.vsix`.
5. Choose **Reload Window** when prompted.
6. Open the Neelverse SF 2.0 sidebar and activate with a valid code.

Installing v0.4.0 over an older version upgrades the extension. Existing activation is retained in VS Code SecretStorage.

## Enable direct Kiro CLI AI

1. Install Kiro CLI 2.x.
2. Authenticate locally with `kiro-cli login`.
3. In VS Code run `Neelverse SF 2.0: Select AI Provider`.
4. Choose **Select Kiro CLI model**, pick a model, then optionally run **Verify Kiro CLI connection**.
5. Selecting a Kiro model makes Kiro the first provider. You can switch back to VS Code-first at any time.

Kiro requests use the credits/subscription of the locally signed-in Kiro account. The extension does not store Kiro credentials.

Requirements: VS Code 1.90+, internet access to https://vscode.lalitpandit.in, Salesforce CLI for live-org operations, and at least one AI provider (VS Code Language Model, authenticated Kiro CLI, or configured external API fallback).
