Core Data Agent Skill

Core Data Agent Skill

Expert guidance for any AI coding tool that supports the [Agent Skills open format](https://agentskills.io/home) — safe persistence, performance optimization, and schema migration.

Based on the [Core Data Best Practices](https://github.com/AvdLee/CoreDataBestPractices) repo, WeTransfer production apps, and WWDC sessions, distilled into actionable, concise references for agents.

Who this is for

• Teams working with Core Data who need safe defaults and quick triage
• Developers debugging persistence issues, threading errors, or performance problems
• Anyone migrating schemas or integrating CloudKit sync
