Does this skill support organizational GitHub repos?

Yes, it uses the GitHub CLI to list your organizations and allows you to create either public or private repositories under any organization you select.

Can I specify a Python version?

Yes, the skill prompts you for a specific Python version during initialization, defaulting to 3.12 if you don't provide one.

What package manager does this skill use?

It specifically uses 'uv', a high-performance Python package installer and resolver, ensuring fast setup and reliable dependency management.

What is the purpose of the 'scratch' directory?

The 'scratch' directory is created and automatically added to .gitignore, providing a safe space for throwaway scripts and temporary notebooks that won't clutter your repository.

What developer commands are included in the justfile?

The generated justfile includes commands for testing (pytest), linting (ruff), formatting (ruff format), launching an IPython shell with autoreload, and starting Jupyter Lab.

Developer Tools

Scaffolds a professional Python library project using uv, featuring a modern src layout, comprehensive dev tools, and GitHub integration.

About

This skill automates the initialization of modern Python libraries by leveraging 'uv' for high-performance dependency management. It establishes a standardized 'src' layout and populates the project with essential developer tools including Ruff for linting, Pytest for testing, and JupyterLab for interactive development. Additionally, it generates a 'justfile' for streamlined command execution and provides an interactive workflow for creating and pushing the repository to GitHub, supporting both personal and organizational accounts.

Key Features

Pre-configured dev toolchain (Ruff, Pytest, JupyterLab, IPython)
0 GitHub stars
Interactive GitHub repository creation with org support
Optimized directory structure for testing, notebooks, and git-ignored scratchpads
Standardized 'src' library layout using uv init
Automatic creation of justfile with common development commands

Use Cases

Bootstrapping a new open-source Python package with best practices
Creating internal organizational libraries with consistent structures
Rapidly setting up a clean environment for Python-based experiments and notebooks
