python-project-template
Generate standardized Python project structure with pyproject.toml, UV environment, pytest configuration, and workspace-hub compliance. Creates production-ready project scaffolding.
Best use case
python-project-template is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Generate standardized Python project structure with pyproject.toml, UV environment, pytest configuration, and workspace-hub compliance. Creates production-ready project scaffolding.
Teams using python-project-template should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.
