Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00039 | $0.02658 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.01063 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00532 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00266 |
Grade A, and why
modern-python scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.
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.

Modern Python
Guide for modern Python tooling and best practices, based on trailofbits/cookiecutter-python.
When to Use This Skill
- Creating a new Python project or package
- Setting up
pyproject.tomlconfiguration - Configuring development tools (linting, formatting, testing)
- Writing Python scripts with external dependencies
- Migrating from legacy tools (when user requests it)
When NOT to Use This Skill
- User wants to keep legacy tooling: Respect existing workflows if explicitly requested
- Python < 3.11 required: These tools target modern Python
- Non-Python projects: Mixed codebases where Python isn't primary
Anti-Patterns to Avoid
| Avoid | Use Instead |
|---|---|
[tool.ty] python-version |
[tool.ty.environment] python-version |
uv pip install |
uv add and uv sync |
| Editing pyproject.toml manually to add deps | uv add <pkg> / uv remove <pkg> |
hatchling build backend |
uv_build (simpler, sufficient for most cases) |
| Poetry | uv (faster, simpler, better ecosystem integration) |
| requirements.txt | PEP 723 for scripts, pyproject.toml for projects |
| mypy / pyright | ty (faster, from Astral team) |
[project.optional-dependencies] for dev tools |
[dependency-groups] (PEP 735) |
Manual virtualenv activation (source .venv/bin/activate) |
uv run <cmd> |
| pre-commit | prek (faster, no Python runtime needed) |
Key principles:
- Always use
uv addanduv removeto manage dependencies - Never manually activate or manage virtual environments—use
uv runfor all commands - Use
[dependency-groups]for dev/test/docs dependencies, not[project.optional-dependencies]
Decision Tree
What are you doing?
│
├─ Single-file script with dependencies?
│ └─ Use PEP 723 inline metadata (./references/pep723-scripts.md)
│
├─ New multi-file project (not distributed)?
│ └─ Minimal uv setup (see Quick Start below)
│
├─ New reusable package/library?
│ └─ Full project setup (see Full Setup below)
│
└─ Migrating existing project?
└─ See Migration Guide below

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.

modern-python is a skill published in the GitHub repository marduk191/qwen3_mcp (15 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 2,658 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
