+description: "Local Python scripts and automation tooling for Python 3.13/3.14 with uv as the default package + project manager (uv init / uv add / uv run / uv tool — Astral, acquired by OpenAI Mar 2026, ~75M monthly downloads vs Poetry 66M, 10–100× faster than pip). Covers project layout for ETL/CLI/cron jobs, Pydantic Settings (.env), reusable httpx + tenacity client, WordPress REST integration, MariaDB/Postgres direct access (no ORM), structured CLI with argparse + match/case + rich, structured logging, and uv single-file scripts via PEP 723 inline metadata. Use for WordPress, ad-platform automation, ETL, scrapers, batch jobs."

-## When to Use
+## When to use
 
-- WordPress API automation (create/update posts, manage media)
-- Ad campaign management (Google Ads, Facebook Ads, TikTok Ads API)
-- Data pipelines (CSV/Excel processing, database sync)
-- Web scraping and data extraction
-- File system operations and batch processing
-- Scheduled tasks and cron-like automation
-- API integrations without a web framework

-## Project Structure
+## Toolchain (2026)
+
+| Tool | Why |
+|---|---|
+| **`uv`** (Astral) | Project + package + Python-version manager. 10–100× faster than pip; surpassed Poetry in monthly downloads in early 2026. Astral was acquired by OpenAI in March 2026 with public commitment to keep `uv` open source. |
+| `ruff` | Lint + format in one Rust binary |
+| `pyright` | Type checking (correctness); `ty` (Astral) when speed matters |
+| `httpx` + `tenacity` | HTTP with retries |
+| `pydantic-settings` | Typed env config |
+| `rich` | Terminal output, tables, progress bars, tracebacks |
+| `tomllib` (3.11+ stdlib) | TOML reading — drop `tomli`/`toml` from deps |

+# Bootstrap a project

+`uv` reads/writes `pyproject.toml` and produces a single universal `uv.lock` that resolves consistently across macOS/Linux/Windows. Commit the lockfile.
+
+## `pyproject.toml` (uv-native)

+requires-python = ">=3.13"
+dependencies = [
+    "httpx>=0.27",

+```
+
+## Single-file scripts — PEP 723 inline metadata
+
+For one-off scripts you want runnable without `pip install`:
+
+```python
+#!/usr/bin/env -S uv run --script
+# /// script
+# requires-python = ">=3.13"
+# dependencies = ["httpx>=0.27", "rich>=13.7"]
+# ///
+
+import httpx
+from rich import print
+
+r = httpx.get("https://api.example.com/status", timeout=5)
+print(r.json())
 ```
 
+`uv run script.py` reads the inline metadata, builds an isolated venv, runs the script. Killer for cron jobs, GitHub Actions one-liners, throwaway helpers.

 ## FORBIDDEN
 
-1. **Hardcoded credentials** — use `.env` + Pydantic Settings
-2. **No error handling on API calls** — always try/except + retry
-3. **No logging** — every script must log actions and errors
-4. **`requests` library** — use `httpx` (modern, sync+async)
-5. **Print statements for output** — use `logging` or `rich`
-6. **No `--dry-run` flag** — destructive scripts must support dry run
-7. **SQL without parameterization** — always use `?` placeholders
-8. **No `.env.example`** — always provide template for credentials
+| Anti-pattern | Reason |
+|---|---|
+| Hardcoded credentials | Use `.env` + `BaseSettings(extra="forbid")` |
+| No retry on flaky API | Use `tenacity` with exponential backoff + jitter |
+| `print()` for output | Use `logging` + `rich` (machine-readable + human-readable) |
+| `requests` library | Use `httpx` (sync + async, http/2, modern API) |
+| `pip install` in new projects | Use `uv add` (Astral's `uv` is the 2026 default) |
+| Missing `uv.lock` in repo | Builds become non-reproducible |
+| f-string interpolation in SQL | SQL injection — always parameterise |
+| No `--dry-run` on destructive scripts | Always provide a safe preview mode |
+| No `.env.example` | Onboarding nightmare |
+| Per-tool config files (`.flake8`, `.isort.cfg`, `pyproject` for black + isort + ruff) | Consolidate under `[tool.ruff]` + `[tool.pyright]` in `pyproject.toml` |
+| `tomli` / `toml` deps for 3.11+ | Use stdlib `tomllib` |
