Python backend patterns: layered architecture, async I/O, dependency injection, repository/service separation. TRIGGER when: creating routes, models, schemas, or services in a Python backend. SKIP: REST contract design (use api-design); schema/index tuning (use database-optimization). (Examples: FastAPI + SQLAlchemy + Pydantic.).

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

# Python Backend Patterns Skill

## Purpose
Best practices for Python backend development: layered architecture, async I/O, dependency injection, and clear separation between HTTP handling, business logic, and data access. The concrete examples below use FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, and Pydantic, but the patterns apply to any Python web framework, ORM, and validation library.

## Auto-Invoke Triggers
- Creating backend routes / endpoints
- Working with ORM models
- Implementing async operations
- Creating request/response validation schemas

---

## Layer Responsibilities

| Layer | Responsibility |
|-------|----------------|
| **Endpoints** | HTTP handling, request/response |
| **Services** | Business logic, orchestration |
| **Repositories** | Data access, queries |
| **Models** | Database schema |
| **Schemas** | Data validation, serialization |

These layers are framework-agnostic — keep HTTP concerns, business rules, and
data access in separate modules regardless of which framework/ORM you use.

## Example: FastAPI + SQLAlchemy + Pydantic (illustrative)

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add komluk/scaffolding/python-patterns@sha256:0c7dbe8e3f8299f2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260705.958c030, 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.
