Converts tracked entity changes into database INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE commands during SaveChanges().
SaveChanges() → DetectChanges() → IDatabase.SaveChanges() → UpdateAdapter creates IUpdateEntry list → CommandBatchPreparer.BatchCommands() → ModificationCommand per table row, composed of ColumnModification per column → SharedTableEntryMap is used to track entries mapped to the same row → Topological sort via Multigraph (FK dependency ordering) → Groups into ModificationCommandBatch (respects max batch size) → UpdateSqlGenerator generates SQL per batch → BatchExecutor executes all batches in a transaction → StateManager.AcceptAllChanges()
Concurrency tokens → WHERE conditions on UPDATE/DELETE. AffectedCountModificationCommandBatch checks affected rows. Throws DbUpdateConcurrencyException on mismatch.
SaveChanges() returns expected affected row countDbUpdateConcurrencyException thrown when expected for stale data| Case | Status | Duration (ms) | Turns | Tokens | Tool calls | ||||||||

DecimalAI ran this skill against gemini-3.6-flash twice over the same eval suite — once with the skill loaded and once without — and compared the two runs case by case. 22 cases were attempted. The headline lift of +27 percentage points is the difference between those two pass rates over the 22 comparable cases.
The per-case answers from this run were removed by the retention sweep, so the case table below shows the verdicts without the text either arm produced. The counts above were recorded at the time and are unaffected. Answers are now kept for 180 days.
