Generate and maintain patches for Composer-installed packages (Drupal contrib modules, WordPress packages, PHP libraries) using cweagans/composer-patches. Invoke when the user needs to modify a contrib or vendor package, mentions "composer patch", "patch a module", "patch a contrib module", "cweagans", "diff -ruN", "extra.patches", or needs a package change that applies cleanly in CI. Covers generating diff -ruN patches, handling new files, wiring composer.json, and verifying the patch applies.
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
# Composer Patch Generator Generate reliable, CI-safe patches for Composer-managed packages you cannot edit directly (Drupal contrib modules, WordPress plugins/packages, PHP libraries). ## Philosophy Contrib and vendor code is not yours to fork. Patches let you carry a change on top of an upstream release, re-apply it on every `composer install`, and drop it the moment upstream ships a fix. ### Core Beliefs 1. **Patches are temporary by design** — always describe the change so it can be removed when upstream merges it. 2. **CI is the source of truth** — a patch that applies locally but fails in CI is a broken patch. Generate for how CI applies, not how your laptop does. 3. **Minimal surface** — a patch should contain only your delta, never build artifacts, `.git` metadata, or tooling files. 4. **Never edit `vendor/` or `web/modules/contrib/` directly** — those dirs are git-ignored and rebuilt on install. The patch is the only durable artifact. ## When to Use This Skill Activate when the user: - Wants to change a Composer-installed package (contrib module, plugin, library). - Mentions "composer patch", "patch this module", "cweagans", "extra.patches". …

How to install
mdr add kanopi/cms-cultivator/composer-patch-generator@sha256:09b8d59b671eee13The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260710.49226ee, 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.
