Use when writing or reviewing asyncio code in Jupyter notebooks or '#%%' cell workflows — structuring event-loop ownership, orchestrating async tasks, or choosing compatibility strategies. Also use when hitting RuntimeError: This event loop is already running, asyncio.run() failures in cells, or tasks silently never completing.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Python Notebooks Async

## Overview

Notebook kernels own the event loop; async code must cooperate with that ownership rather than fight it.
This skill covers orchestration patterns, top-level `await`, and compatibility constraints for `.ipynb` and `#%%` workflows.

Treat these recommendations as preferred defaults.
When project constraints require deviation, call out tradeoffs and compensating controls.

## When to Use

- `asyncio.run()` raises `RuntimeError` inside a notebook cell.
- Event-loop conflicts when mixing async libraries in Jupyter.
- Porting async scripts into notebook workflows.
- Orchestrating concurrent tasks (`gather`, `TaskGroup`) in IPython kernels.
- Deciding where to place reusable async logic across notebook/module boundaries.

### When NOT to Use

- Pure script or service code with no notebook involvement.
- Synchronous notebook workflows with no async needs.
- General asyncio API design outside notebook contexts — the `python` skill covers concurrency audit defaults.

## Invocation Notice

- Tell the user when this skill is running: `python-notebooks-async`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ahgraber/skills/python-notebooks-async@sha256:5f051d88bfc37a3e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.209d97b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
