  ---
  
  ## Features
  
  ### Data Operations
  - **Data Push** — Upload CSV, JSON, or Excel files and push records into any Salesforce object using the REST Collections API or Bulk API 2.0. Supports field mapping, data transformation, retry on failure, and type-to-confirm deletes.
  - **Data Cleanser** — Rename, drop, and reorder columns. Apply bulk field updates with formula interpolation and conditional rules. Preview changes before applying.
  - **Pipeline Builder** — Visual step-chain builder for data transformation (filter, transform, lookup, aggregate, join steps) with intermediate result preview.
  - **Test Data Generator** — Auto-generate test data using faker.js. Configure null rates, static values, formulas, and relationship ID injection per field.
  - **Data Templates** — Save and reuse field mapping configurations. Organise templates by category with usage tracking.
  
  ### Querying
  - **SOQL Query Editor** — Structured SOQL builder with context-aware autocomplete, or raw SOQL text mode. Performance metrics, query folders, favourites, tags, and fuzzy search.
  
  ### Schema & Analytics
  - **Schema Explorer** — Browse Salesforce object schemas, view field metadata, and explore object relationships as an interactive graph.
  - **Schema Comparison** — Diff the fields of any two objects or two orgs side-by-side with export to CSV, JSON, or HTML.
  - **Field Usage Analytics** — Population rate, cardinality analysis, and optimisation recommendations per field.
  - **API Usage Dashboard** — View all Salesforce governor limits with colour-coded consumption bars.
  - **Org Health** — Monitor org health metrics at a glance.
  
  ### Cross-Org
  - **Multi-Org Support** — Connect and switch between multiple Salesforce orgs. Custom nicknames, colour dots, and PROD/SBX badges for visual identification.
  - **Data Comparison** — Compare record-level data across orgs. Colour-coded diff with selective sync to push specific records from source to target.
  
  ### Advanced Operations
  - **Duplicate Detection & Merging** — Find duplicates using exact, Levenshtein (fuzzy), or Soundex (phonetic) matching. 3-step merge wizard with field-level control.
  - **Cross-Object Cloning** — Clone records with automatic dependency graph detection, topological ordering, and ID remapping for lookups.
  - **Bulk Object Operations** — Record counts, bulk delete with safety confirmations, and production org warnings.
  - **Data Quality Scorecards** — Define rule sets (required fields, regex, range, picklist, uniqueness) and score datasets before pushing.
  
  ### History & Recovery
  - **Push History** — Sortable, filterable push log with error grouping and CSV/JSON export.
  - **Undo / Rollback** — Automatic capture of inserted record IDs. One-click undo via `Ctrl+Z` or the undo panel.
  
  ### User Interface
  - Three UI modes: popup, in-page side panel, and full-page app
  - Dark mode (light, dark, or auto)
  - Command palette (`Ctrl+K`) with fuzzy search
  - Customisable keyboard shortcuts with conflict detection
  - Onboarding wizard and contextual help tooltips
  - Shadow DOM isolation for the in-page panel
