  • Bootstrap uv FastMCP projects and workspaces, plus optional OpenAPI or FastAPI mapping guidance.
• bootstrap-python-service
  • Bootstrap uv FastAPI projects and workspaces with consistent app, test, and quality-tool defaults.
• bootstrap-uv-python-workspace
  • Create the shared uv package or workspace scaffolds used directly or as the basis for the higher-level bootstrap skills.
• uv-pytest-unit-testing

Notes

• The repository stays flat at the root; active skills are not nested under skills/.
• Root docs are the canonical installation and discovery surface.
• Each skill’s maintained contract lives in SKILL.md plus agents/openai.yaml; per-skill README.md files are intentionally retired.
• Maintainer-side validation is standardized on uv run pytest and uv run python scripts/validate_repo_metadata.py.
