Python Style Best Practices Skill

This skill automatically activates when writing Python code to ensure consistency with PEP standards, type hints, and modern Python idioms.

Core Standards

• PEP 8: Naming conventions, imports, line length
• Type Hints: Modern syntax (list[str] not List[str], X | None not Optional[X])
• Docstrings: Google style with Args, Returns, Raises sections
• Imports: stdlib → third-party → local, alphabetically sorted

Naming Conventions

# Classes: PascalCase
class UserAccount:
    pass

# Functions/variables: snake_case
