Standard Create/Read/Update/Delete microflow patterns with the naming conventions that go with them. Use when writing the action microflows behind page buttons rather than looking up individual syntax.

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.

## Find it fast

`sed -n '<from>,<to>p' SKILL.md` one section rather than reading the file;
`./mxcli syntax <topic>` answers *how do I write this* for a fraction of either.

# CRUD Action Patterns

Standard patterns for Create, Read, Update, Delete operations on entities.

## Naming Conventions

| Prefix | Purpose | Example |
|--------|---------|---------|
| `ACT_` | Action microflow (page button) | `ACT_Customer_Save` |
| `VAL_` | Validation microflow | `VAL_Customer_Save` |
| `DS_` | Data source microflow | `DS_Customer_GetAll` |
| `SUB_` | Sub-microflow (internal) | `SUB_Customer_SendEmail` |

## Save Pattern (Create/Update)

Used for Save buttons on NewEdit pages.

```mdl
mdl 1;
/**
 * Save action for Customer NewEdit page
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mendixlabs/mxcli/patterns-crud@sha256:905c9be0faaae1b8

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.50fe33a, 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.
