use-uv

Do not call python, pip, venv, virtualenv, poetry, or pipx directly unless the user explicitly asks. Use uv instead. Start new Python projects with uv init. Add dependencies with uv add and remove them with uv remove. Run Python scripts and project tools with uv run, including pytest, mypy, and python -m equivalents. Use uv sync to install and align the environment with the lockfile. Use uv run --with <package> for one-off dependencies when you do not need to modify the project. Use uvx <tool> for one-off Python CLI tools that are not part of the project. Use uv pip only for legacy pip-compatible workflows when uv add or uv sync cannot be used.
