Agent skill
bootstrap-uv-python-workspace
Bootstrap new Python projects and multi-package workspaces with uv on macOS using deterministic scripts and consistent defaults. Use when creating a new uv Python project, scaffolding a uv monorepo/workspace, setting up package or service profiles, initializing dev tooling (pytest, ruff, mypy), creating README scaffolds, or initializing git with an optional first commit.

Bootstrap UV Python Workspace
Create repeatable uv-based scaffolds for both single projects and workspaces. Use this skill as the shared scaffolding basis for other Python bootstrap skills that need consistent uv project/workspace defaults.
Workflow
- Choose bootstrap mode:
- Single project:
scripts/init_uv_python_project.sh - Workspace:
scripts/init_uv_python_workspace.sh
- Select profile(s):
package: library/package layoutservice: FastAPI service layout
- Run scaffold script with explicit
--nameand optional--path,--python, and--initial-commit. - Verify generated environment with built-in checks run by the scripts.
- Return exact next commands to run locally.
Commands
# Package project
scripts/init_uv_python_project.sh --name my-lib --profile package
# Service project
scripts/init_uv_python_project.sh --name my-service --profile service --python 3.13
# Workspace with defaults (core-lib package + api-service service)
scripts/init_uv_python_workspace.sh --name my-workspace
# Workspace with explicit members and profile mapping
scripts/init_uv_python_workspace.sh \
--name platform \
--members "core-lib,billing-service,orders-service" \
--profile-map "core-lib=package,billing-service=service,orders-service=service"
# Allow non-empty target directory
scripts/init_uv_python_project.sh --name my-lib --force
# Skip git initialization
scripts/init_uv_python_workspace.sh --name platform --no-git-init
# Create initial commit after successful scaffold
scripts/init_uv_python_project.sh --name my-service --profile service --initial-commit
Guardrails
- Refuse non-empty target directories unless
--forceis set. - Refuse to overwrite an existing
pyproject.toml. - Require
uvandgit(when git initialization is enabled). - Exit non-zero with actionable error text for invalid arguments or missing prerequisites.
Defaults
- Python version:
3.13(override with--python). - Quality tooling:
pytest,ruff,mypy. - Git initialization: enabled by default (disable via
--no-git-init). - Workspace defaults:
- Members:
core-lib,api-service - Profiles: first member
package, remaining membersservice - Local linking: services depend on the first package member using uv workspace sources.
Automation Suitability
- Codex App automation: Medium. Best for scheduled scaffold health checks, not day-to-day product delivery.
- Codex CLI automation: High. Strong fit for CI or scheduled scaffold validation.
Codex App Automation Prompt Template
Use $bootstrap-uv-python-workspace.
Scope boundaries:
- Work only inside <REPO_PATH>.
- Create temporary scaffolds only under <SCRATCH_ROOT>/<NAME>-<STAMP>.
- Do not modify unrelated files outside the temporary scaffold path.
Task:
1. If <MODE:PROJECT|WORKSPACE> is PROJECT, run:
`scripts/init_uv_python_project.sh --name <NAME> --profile <PROFILE:PACKAGE|SERVICE> --python <PYTHON_VERSION> --path <SCRATCH_ROOT>/<NAME>-<STAMP> <FORCE_FLAG> <GIT_INIT_MODE>`
2. If <MODE:PROJECT|WORKSPACE> is WORKSPACE, run:
`scripts/init_uv_python_workspace.sh --name <NAME> --python <PYTHON_VERSION> --path <SCRATCH_ROOT>/<NAME>-<STAMP> --members "<MEMBERS_CSV>" --profile-map "<PROFILE_MAP>" <FORCE_FLAG> <GIT_INIT_MODE>`
3. Run validation checks in the scaffold root:
- `uv run pytest`
- `uv run ruff check .`
- `uv run mypy .`
4. If <KEEP_OR_CLEANUP_ARTIFACTS:KEEP|CLEANUP> is CLEANUP, remove the scaffold directory after reporting results.
Output contract:
1. STATUS: PASS or FAIL
2. COMMANDS: exact commands executed, in order
3. RESULTS: concise check outcomes
4. If FAIL: include a short stderr summary and minimal fix recommendation
5. If PASS with no findings: include "safe to archive"
Codex CLI Automation Prompt Template
codex exec --full-auto --sandbox workspace-write --cd "<REPO_PATH>" "<PROMPT_BODY>"
<PROMPT_BODY> template:
Use $bootstrap-uv-python-workspace.
Stay strictly within <REPO_PATH>. Create temporary artifacts only under <SCRATCH_ROOT>/<NAME>-<STAMP>.
Run scaffold generation for <MODE:PROJECT|WORKSPACE>, then run:
- `uv run pytest`
- `uv run ruff check .`
- `uv run mypy .`
Return STATUS, exact commands, and concise results only. If failures occur, provide only the minimal remediation needed.
Customization Placeholders
