This skill should be used when the user is creating new Magento 2 modules or customizations, implementing features following Magento architecture, working with Dependency Injection, Repositories, or Plugins, writing secure Magento code, or building backend logic, CLI commands, or cron jobs. Foundation skill for professional Magento 2 development. This is the CORE skill that other Magento 2 skills depend on. Always load this first.

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

# Magento 2 Developer Core

This skill provides the foundational patterns all Magento 2 developers must follow. It covers architectural decisions, security, and best practices that apply to every part of a Magento project.

## Related Skills

This is the foundation the other Magento 2 skills build on: `magento2-frontend-dev` and `magento2-hyva-dev` cover the two mutually exclusive theme stacks (check the theme's `theme.xml` parent to see which one the project actually uses, Luma vs Hyvä), `magento2-backend-dev` covers APIs/CLI/cron, and `magento2-linter`, `magento2-security-scan`, `magento2-performance-audit` verify the patterns below, `magento2-code-review` orchestrates all three (plus this skill's own anti-pattern checks) into one report scoped to a PR/module/theme/project. In a Govard environment, pair this with `govard-magento` for the container/CLI side.

## Core Architectural Standards

> Note: For framework-agnostic PHP (PSR-12/Composer/PDO) see `php-dev-core`. This skill covers Magento-specific DI/Repository/Plugin.

### Dependency Injection (DI)

**DO**: Use Constructor Injection for all dependencies.

```php
class MyService
{
    public function __construct(

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ddtcorex/maestro-skills/magento2-dev-core@sha256:5310ae63b7dad10a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.b2b8f0b, 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.
