Payload CMS 3.x, the Next.js-native TypeScript headless CMS. Use when working in payload.config.ts, collections, fields, access control, hooks, the Local API, versions and drafts, database or storage adapters, plugin authoring, or the official MCP plugin.
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
# Payload CMS Payload 3.x runs inside a Next.js (or TanStack Start) app: the config is source code, the admin panel is mounted routes, and the database schema is derived from your collections. Prefer the project's existing conventions, then steer with three leading words: **config is the schema**, **access is opt-in**, and **thread the request**. Branch-specific references, loaded on demand: - [reference/collections.md](reference/collections.md) — collection config, auth, uploads, versions and drafts, globals. - [reference/fields.md](reference/fields.md) — field types, virtual and join fields, the experimental `slug` field, validation, type guards. - [reference/access-control.md](reference/access-control.md) — collection, field, and admin access; the Access Operation trap. - [reference/hooks.md](reference/hooks.md) — hook families, argument shapes, `context`, loop prevention. - [reference/queries.md](reference/queries.md) — operators, `depth`, `select`, Local API, transactions. - [reference/mcp.md](reference/mcp.md) — the official `@payloadcms/plugin-mcp` server, its tools and its three authorization gates. …

How to install
mdr add firzus/agent-skills/payload-cms@sha256:67638b58fcb467b1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260810.69da1fd, 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.
