Maintain or migrate EF6-based applications with realistic guidance on what to keep, what to modernize, and when EF Core is or is not the right next step. Use when working in an EF6 codebase or planning a data layer migration.

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

# Entity Framework 6

## Trigger On

- working in an EF6 codebase on .NET Framework or modern .NET
- deciding whether to keep EF6, move to modern .NET runtime, or port to EF Core
- reviewing EDMX, code-first, or legacy ASP.NET/WPF/WinForms data access
- planning a data layer migration strategy

## Workflow

1. **Audit current EF6 usage** before planning any migration. Identify which features the codebase depends on:
   ```csharp
   // Common EF6-specific patterns to inventory:
   // - EDMX designer models (check for *.edmx files)
   // - ObjectContext vs DbContext usage
   // - Lazy loading with virtual navigation properties
   // - Database.SqlQuery<T>() for raw SQL
   // - Stored procedure mappings in model
   // - Spatial types (DbGeography, DbGeometry)
   ```
2. **Decide runtime vs ORM migration separately:**

   | Path | When to use |
   |------|-------------|
   | Keep EF6 on .NET Framework | Legacy app with no runtime pressure |
   | EF6 on modern .NET | Runtime upgrade needed, ORM migration too risky |
   | EF6 → EF Core | Clean data layer, no EDMX, minimal stored-procedure mapping |

3. **For maintenance work** — keep EF6 stable:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add postpartum-genushyacinthus29/dotnet-skills/dotnet-entity-framework6@sha256:2fc3ed533c10e42c

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, 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.
