Modern Python

Modern Python tooling and practices: uv for dependencies, ruff for lint/format, ty for type checking, pytest for tests. Use for this project and when setting up or refactoring Python codebases.

When to Use

• Setting up or changing Python project structure and tooling
• Replacing pip/virtualenv with uv
• Replacing flake8/black/isort with ruff, or mypy with ty
• Adding pre-commit hooks and security scanning
• Writing or reviewing tests with pytest and coverage

Legacy Command Guidance

Prefer uv over raw python/pip. When about to run legacy commands, use:

Commands that already use uv run (e.g. uv run pytest) do not need changing.

Project Structure and pyproject.toml

• Layout : Prefer a src/ layout (package under src/<package_name>/). This project uses top-level packages (mcp_core, kroki, plantuml, etc.); when adding new packages, keep them at repo root or under a clear namespace.
• Config : Single pyproject.toml at repo root.
• Python : Prefer Python 3.11+ in [project] for new projects; this repo uses 3.10+.
• Dependency groups (PEP 735): Put dev/test/lint deps in dependency groups where the tool supports them.

Linting and Formatting (ruff)

• Use ruff for both linting and formatting (replaces flake8, black, isort, pyupgrade).
• Configure in pyproject.toml under [tool.ruff] and [tool.ruff.format].

Run:

• uv run ruff check .
• uv run ruff format .

Fix auto-fixable issues: uv run ruff check --fix .

Type Checking (ty)

• Use ty instead of mypy/pyright for faster type checking when introducing it.
• Configure in pyproject.toml under [tool.ty] if needed.

Run: uv run ty check

Unit Testing (pytest)

• Use pytest for all tests; prefer it over unittest for new code.
• Layout : tests/ at repo root; use conftest.py for shared fixtures.
• Coverage : Use pytest-cov. Enforce a minimum coverage threshold so CI fails when coverage drops.

Run:

• uv run pytest
• uv run pytest --cov=mcp_core --cov-report=term-missing
• uv run pytest -v tests/

Good practices:

• Use @pytest.fixture for setup/teardown and shared state.
• Use @pytest.mark.parametrize for multiple inputs/outputs.
• Prefer descriptive test names and clear assertion messages.
• Keep tests fast; use mocks for I/O or external services when appropriate.

Pre-commit and Security

• Use prek or pre-commit for hooks (ruff, ty, pytest, detect-secrets).
• Dependencies : Run uv run pip-audit or use in CI.
• Secrets : Use detect-secrets in pre-commit or CI.
• GitHub Actions : Use actionlint for workflow syntax.

Quick Checklist

• Project uses pyproject.toml with clear requires-python and dependency groups
• Dependencies managed with uv where possible; avoid bare pip install in instructions
• Lint/format with ruff; type check with ty or mypy as configured
• Tests with pytest; coverage enforced in config or CI
• Pre-commit runs lint, format, and tests where appropriate
• Security: pip-audit, detect-secrets; optional actionlint, Dependabot
