Do I need to install uv separately?

Yes, for Claude to utilize this skill effectively, the uv binary should be installed on your local system path.

How do I run tests with this skill?

The skill is configured to automatically use 'uv run pytest' whenever you need to execute your test suite.

Does this skill work with existing projects?

Yes, it can manage existing projects by using 'uv sync' or 'uv add' to migrate and manage your requirements.

Why does this skill use uv instead of pip?

uv is written in Rust and is significantly faster than pip, while also handling virtual environments and dependency resolution more reliably.

Can I still run bare Python commands?

While you can, this skill enforces the use of 'uv run python' to ensure that scripts always run within the correct project context and environment.

Developer Tools

Streamlines Python development by enforcing high-performance dependency management and script execution using the uv toolchain.

About

This skill optimizes the Python development workflow within Claude Code by standardizing on the 'uv' package manager. It replaces legacy tools like pip and poetry with uv's blazingly fast commands for installing packages, running scripts, and executing tests. By enforcing a consistent environment setup, it ensures that your Python projects are reproducible, well-organized, and benefit from significantly faster execution times and more reliable dependency resolution.

Key Features

High-speed dependency management using uv add
Standardized script execution via uv run
Seamless integration with pytest for automated testing
Automatic environment synchronization with uv sync
Eliminates common pip and virtualenv configuration errors
1 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Initializing and managing modern Python project environments
Running scripts and tests with isolated, reproducible dependencies
Speeding up CI/CD-like workflows within the Claude Code terminal
