Why Hauler

The release workflow that feels native to VS Code

Hauler is built for teams that want more clarity before changes go live. Instead of splitting release work across terminals, manifests, browser tabs, and scattered checks, Hauler turns deployment into one guided workflow inside the editor where the work already happens.

Clear states. Reviewable changes. Safer execution.

VS Code-native workflow

Work where release work already happens

Hauler is built for desktop VS Code, so source context, staged components, logs, and deployment actions stay close to the codebase instead of being split across disconnected tools.

Use a connected org or workspace source
Stage components directly from VS Code context
Keep deployment actions and logs in one place

Guided execution

Move through one controlled path from connect to deploy

Hauler gives teams an explicit release path: Connect, Scope, Review, Validate, Deploy. Each step makes state visible, keeps handoffs cleaner, and reduces hidden decisions during release work.

Guided 5-step deployment flow
Clear step progression and release context
Type-aware metadata scoping and review

Review before release

See what is changing before anything goes live

Review is part of the workflow, not an afterthought. Teams can inspect selected components, compare source and target changes, preview package contents, and create recovery snapshots before execution.

Inline source vs target diff review
Package preview and backup snapshots
Better visibility before deployment

Operational safeguards

Add safer defaults without adding process drag

Hauler brings operational controls into the workflow itself, so teams can validate, check risk, reuse trusted setups, and export diagnostics without turning release work into a separate overhead-heavy process.

Preflight checks before validate and deploy
Risk scan flags and acknowledgement gates
Reusable deployment plans and report export

Local-first trust

Keep execution local, transparent, and auditable

Hauler works through your local Salesforce CLI and selected org APIs, stores sensitive auth material in VS Code Secret Storage, and keeps deployment history visible so teams can review outcomes with more confidence.

Local-first execution model
VS Code Secret Storage for auth material
Deployment history and diagnostics visibility

What stays visible

Desktop VS Code workflow
Local Salesforce CLI execution
Source vs target diff review
Preflight checks and validation
Reusable deployment plans
Deployment history visibility

Built for release work that needs more control

Hauler helps teams connect, review, validate, deploy, and track changes in one clearer workflow inside VS Code.
