Use when designing deployable Salesforce configuration with Custom Metadata Types, especially when choosing between CMTs, Custom Settings, and Custom Objects, protecting packaged defaults, or exposing config to Apex, Flow, and formulas. Triggers: 'custom metadata vs custom settings', 'deployable config', 'protected custom metadata', 'feature flags in Salesforce'. NOT for hierarchical Custom Settings resolution, getInstance/getValues, or their SOQL cost — use…
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
Use this skill when the org needs configuration that behaves like software, not like business data. Custom Metadata Types are the right answer when values should be versioned, deployed, packaged, and read consistently by Apex, Flow, and formulas without hardcoding environment-specific behavior. --- ## Before Starting Gather this context before you decide on the storage model: - Who changes the values, and how often do they change in production? - Do the records need to travel through source control, packaging, or deployment pipelines? - Are the values regular configuration, per-user overrides, reportable business data, or secrets such as tokens and passwords? --- ## Questions to Ask Before Configuring Ask these before creating the type. Each one decides an element you will have to write into the XML, and an LLM that skips them produces a type that deploys and then behaves wrongly in the target org. | Ask | Why it matters | What a good answer adds | |---|---|---| …

How to install
mdr add pranavnagrecha/awesomesalesforceskills/custom-metadata-types@sha256:b797853f7fd2c0e7The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
