Does this skill support older Python versions?

While it prioritizes modern Python 3.10+ features, the core idioms and best practices are applicable across most modern Python 3 environments.

What are the benefits of using the src-layout recommended here?

The src-layout prevents accidental imports of the local package and ensures that tests run against the installed version of the code, following industry standards.

How does this skill assist with asynchronous programming?

It provides specific patterns for async/await, concurrent task management with asyncio.gather, and implementing timeouts for robust network operations.

Does this skill manage Python dependencies?

This skill focuses on language expertise; for dependency management and project setup, it is designed to work alongside uv-project-management.

Can it help me find performance bottlenecks?

Yes, it includes specialized commands and patterns for CPU profiling, line-by-line analysis, and memory tracking using tools like cProfile and scalene.
