Is anyone getting WebStorm to create the manifest file? It seems to miss lots of things from my objects directory.

Things in your Objects directory shouldn't be in the manifest; the manifest lists external dependencies

WS added several fields from one of my custom records, I didn't understand what it was doing.

I've since read the docs - I'm transitioning from a Salto shop to an SDF shop - bit better with Salto to be honest

Hm I don't use the IDE plugins so I'm less helpful there. In the CLI, I would not expect the `adddependencies` command to add anything from the Objects folder to the manifest.

if your custom object is NOT in your WS project, but you have  scripts that use/reference it, then it WILL need to be a dependency

usually those objects are IN the project though?  and the only thing left to go in the manifest is... wholesale OTHER projects/bundles, and NS features

It will need to be, yes, but I don't believe `adddependencies` will detect that, as it doesn't scan the source code.

_Usually_ yes, particularly for Account Customizations I'd expect the code and objects to be distributed together, but not always.

oh yeah it wouldn't auto add those - i misread I thought the question was around why is this stuff in my manifest (and I assumed someone else had previously manually added it)
