Master Python asyncio, concurrent programming, and async/await patterns for high-performance applications. Use when building async APIs, concurrent systems, or I/O-bound applications requiring non-blocking operations.
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.

# Async Python Patterns
Comprehensive guidance for implementing asynchronous Python applications using asyncio, concurrent programming patterns, and async/await for building high-performance, non-blocking systems.
## When to Use This Skill
- Building async web APIs (FastAPI, aiohttp, Sanic)
- Implementing concurrent I/O operations (database, file, network)
- Creating web scrapers with concurrent requests
- Developing real-time applications (WebSocket servers, chat systems)
- Processing multiple independent tasks simultaneously
- Building microservices with async communication
- Optimizing I/O-bound workloads
- Implementing async background tasks and queues
## Sync vs Async Decision Guide
Before adopting async, consider whether it's the right choice for your use case.
| Use Case | Recommended Approach |
|----------|---------------------|
| Many concurrent network/DB calls | `asyncio` |
| CPU-bound computation | `multiprocessing` or thread pool |
| Mixed I/O + CPU | Offload CPU work with `asyncio.to_thread()` |
| Simple scripts, few connections | Sync (simpler, easier to debug) |
| Web APIs with high concurrency | Async frameworks (FastAPI, aiohttp) |

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260524.1fee1b9, 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.
A 17 of 17 checks passed. Fixed automatic checks with no AI involved, so the same checks give the same answer every run.
