pypi-maintainer

pypi-maintainer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from agentculture/fleet-cli. It costs 83 tokens per session (727 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of pypi-maintainer, Apache-2.0.

A tool for changing where a Python package is installed from: the public PyPI package index, TestPyPI (a separate index for testing releases), or a local editable checkout.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps maintainers test a pre-release package, reproduce bugs against a published version, use an in-progress local fix, and return to the production package.
Why use it?
It avoids manually changing installation commands when comparing a released package, testing a development build, or working on local code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pypi-maintainer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/switch-source.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PyPI Maintainer

Switch the install source for a package the agent maintains. Three sources are supported: production PyPI, TestPyPI (pre-release / dev builds), and a local editable checkout. The same script works for any package an AgentCulture sibling publishes — pass the package name as the first argument.

When to use

  • Verifying a PR's TestPyPI dev build before merging.
  • Reproducing a user-reported bug against the published version.
  • Hot-patching against a local checkout while a fix is in flight.
  • Restoring the production install after local-mode debugging.

Usage

# Production PyPI
bash .claude/skills/pypi-maintainer/scripts/switch-source.sh <package> pypi

# TestPyPI (pre-release dev builds)
bash .claude/skills/pypi-maintainer/scripts/switch-source.sh <package> test-pypi

# TestPyPI, pinned to a specific dev version
bash .claude/skills/pypi-maintainer/scripts/switch-source.sh <package> test-pypi --version 0.4.0.dev42

# Local editable checkout (defaults to current directory)
bash .claude/skills/pypi-maintainer/scripts/switch-source.sh <package> local

# Local editable from an explicit path
bash .claude/skills/pypi-maintainer/scripts/switch-source.sh <package> local --path ../<package>

Prerequisites

The script requires the following tools on PATH:

  • bash
  • uv — the script delegates to uv tool install and uv tool list (or uv pip install for local).

Why TestPyPI needs special flags

When a package is published to both PyPI and TestPyPI, uv tool install finds the production version on PyPI first and never looks at TestPyPI. The script passes --index-strategy unsafe-best-match so uv compares the two index sets and picks the highest version, plus --prerelease=allow because TestPyPI builds carry dev suffixes (e.g. 0.4.0.dev42).

After running

The script prints the resolved version once install completes — cross-check that against the expected version (PR run number, local pyproject.toml) before continuing.

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
