python-development

You are a Python project architecture expert specializing in scaffolding production-ready Python applications. Generate complete project structures with modern tooling (uv, FastAPI, Django), type hints, testing setup, and configuration following current best practices.

Master Django 5.x with async views, DRF, Celery, and Django Channels. Build scalable web applications with proper architecture, testing, and deployment. Use PROACTIVELY for Django development, ORM optimization, or complex Django patterns.

Build high-performance async APIs with FastAPI, SQLAlchemy 2.0, and Pydantic V2. Master microservices, WebSockets, and modern Python async patterns. Use PROACTIVELY for FastAPI development, async optimization, or API architecture.

Master Python 3.12+ with modern features, async programming, performance optimization, and production-ready practices. Expert in the latest Python ecosystem including uv, ruff, pydantic, and FastAPI. Use PROACTIVELY for Python development, optimization, or advanced Python patterns.

Master Python asyncio, concurrent programming, and async/await patterns for high-performance applications. Use when building async APIs, concurrent systems, or I/O-bound applications requiring non-blocking operations.

Common Python anti-patterns to avoid. Use as a checklist when reviewing code, before finalizing implementations, or when debugging issues that might stem from known bad practices.

Python background job patterns including task queues, workers, and event-driven architecture. Use when implementing async task processing, job queues, long-running operations, or decoupling work from request/response cycles.

Python code style, linting, formatting, naming conventions, and documentation standards. Use when writing new code, reviewing style, configuring linters, writing docstrings, or establishing project standards.

Python configuration management via environment variables and typed settings. Use when externalizing config, setting up pydantic-settings, managing secrets, or implementing environment-specific behavior.

Python design patterns including KISS, Separation of Concerns, Single Responsibility, and composition over inheritance. Use when making architecture decisions, refactoring code structure, or evaluating when abstractions are appropriate.

Python error handling patterns including input validation, exception hierarchies, and partial failure handling. Use when implementing validation logic, designing exception strategies, handling batch processing failures, or building robust APIs.

Python observability patterns including structured logging, metrics, and distributed tracing. Use when adding logging, implementing metrics collection, setting up tracing, or debugging production systems.

Create distributable Python packages with proper project structure, setup.py/pyproject.toml, and publishing to PyPI. Use when packaging Python libraries, creating CLI tools, or distributing Python code.

Profile and optimize Python code using cProfile, memory profilers, and performance best practices. Use when debugging slow Python code, optimizing bottlenecks, or improving application performance.

Python project organization, module architecture, and public API design. Use when setting up new projects, organizing modules, defining public interfaces with __all__, or planning directory layouts.

Python resilience patterns including automatic retries, exponential backoff, timeouts, and fault-tolerant decorators. Use when adding retry logic, implementing timeouts, building fault-tolerant services, or handling transient failures.

Python resource management with context managers, cleanup patterns, and streaming. Use when managing connections, file handles, implementing cleanup logic, or building streaming responses with accumulated state.

Implement comprehensive testing strategies with pytest, fixtures, mocking, and test-driven development. Use when writing Python tests, setting up test suites, or implementing testing best practices.

Python type safety with type hints, generics, protocols, and strict type checking. Use when adding type annotations, implementing generic classes, defining structural interfaces, or configuring mypy/pyright.

Master the uv package manager for fast Python dependency management, virtual environments, and modern Python project workflows. Use when setting up Python projects, managing dependencies, or optimizing Python development workflows with uv.
