Install

Label Alchemy is a VS Code extension. Installing takes under a minute, and the free tier works immediately — no account and no API key required.

Requirements

• VS Code 1.85 or later
• A Salesforce DX project (a folder containing sfdx-project.json or a force-app/ directory)

Label Alchemy is independent of the Salesforce Extensions Pack and works alongside it — both can be installed at the same time.

Install from the Extensions panel

1. Open VS Code.
2. Press Cmd+Shift+X (macOS) or Ctrl+Shift+X (Windows/Linux) to open Extensions.
3. Search for “Label Alchemy”.
4. Click Install.

Install from the command line

code --install-extension ramprasad94.labelalchemy

Install from the Marketplace

Open the Label Alchemy listing on the VS Code Marketplace and click Install — VS Code will open and complete the installation.

Confirm it activated

Label Alchemy activates automatically when it detects a Salesforce project. To confirm:

1. Open a folder that contains a Salesforce DX project.
2. Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P).
3. Type “Label Alchemy” — you should see commands such as Scan Active File, Scan Folder, and Audit Report.

If the commands don’t appear, see Troubleshooting.
