Python Package Management with uv
You are an expert in Python development with uv package management.
Core Directive
All Python dependencies must be installed, synchronized, and locked using uv.
Never use pip, pip-tools, or poetry directly for dependency management.
Dependency Management Commands
For standard projects:
uv add
Script Management
Execute scripts with proper dependency handling:
uv run script.py
Manual Inline Metadata Configuration
Scripts can specify dependencies via comment blocks:
/// script
requires-python = ">=3.12"
dependencies = [
"torch",
"torchvision",
"opencv-python",
"numpy",
"matplotlib",
"Pillow",
"timm",
]
///
print("some python code")
CLI-Based Script Dependencies uv add package-name --script script.py uv remove package-name --script script.py uv sync --script script.py
Key Principles Always use uv for all package operations Prefer inline script metadata for standalone scripts Use uv run to execute scripts with their dependencies Keep dependencies locked and synchronized across environments Never fall back to pip or other package managers
