python

python is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jnPiyush/AgentX. It costs 41 tokens per session (2,176 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to writing Python applications, APIs, data pipelines, and AI or machine-learning systems. Python is a general-purpose programming language widely used for automation, web services, and data work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build Python applications and APIs, write async code, add type hints, test with pytest, and structure packages or data projects.
Why use it?
It helps organize Python projects and apply consistent practices for types, asynchronous code, errors, testing, and dependencies. It also helps select common tools for APIs and data processing.

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

python 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/scaffold-project.py), 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.

Python Development

Purpose: Production-ready Python development standards for building secure, performant, maintainable applications. Audience: Engineers building Python applications, APIs, data pipelines, or AI/ML systems. Standard: Follows github/awesome-copilot Python development patterns.


When to Use This Skill

  • Building Python applications or APIs
  • Adding type hints to Python code
  • Writing async/await patterns in Python
  • Testing with pytest
  • Structuring Python project layouts

Decision Tree

Python Project Decision
+-- Building a web API?
|   +-- High-performance async? -> FastAPI
|   +-- Full-featured framework? -> Django + DRF
|   +-- Lightweight / microservice? -> Flask
+-- Data processing / ML?
|   +-- Data pipelines? -> pandas + polars
|   +-- ML models? -> scikit-learn, PyTorch, or transformers
|   +-- Notebooks? -> Jupyter + ipykernel
+-- CLI tool?
|   +-- Simple? -> argparse (stdlib)
|   +-- Complex multi-command? -> click or typer
+-- Async I/O needed?
|   +-- HTTP client? -> httpx or aiohttp
|   +-- Task queue? -> Celery or asyncio
+-- Package management?
|   +-- Modern standard? -> pyproject.toml + poetry or hatch
|   +-- Legacy? -> requirements.txt + pip

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.14+ installed
  • pip or poetry package manager
  • pytest for testing

Quick Reference

Need Solution Pattern
Type hints Use everywhere def get_user(id: int) -> Optional[User]:
Async code Use async/await async def fetch_data() -> str:
Error handling Specific exceptions try-except ValueError
Testing pytest def test_user_creation():
Logging Standard library logger.info("User %s created", user_id)
Docstrings Google style """Gets user by ID.\n\nArgs:\n id: User identifier

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.

python is a skill published in the GitHub repository jnPiyush/AgentX (16 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 2,176 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
