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.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Python Packaging

Comprehensive guide to creating, structuring, and distributing Python packages using modern packaging tools, pyproject.toml, and publishing to PyPI.

## When to Use This Skill

- Creating Python libraries for distribution
- Building command-line tools with entry points
- Publishing packages to PyPI or private repositories
- Setting up Python project structure
- Creating installable packages with dependencies
- Building wheels and source distributions
- Versioning and releasing Python packages
- Creating namespace packages
- Implementing package metadata and classifiers

## Core Concepts

### 1. Package Structure

- **Source layout**: `src/package_name/` (recommended)
- **Flat layout**: `package_name/` (simpler but less flexible)
- **Package metadata**: pyproject.toml, setup.py, or setup.cfg
- **Distribution formats**: wheel (.whl) and source distribution (.tar.gz)

### 2. Modern Packaging Standards

- **PEP 517/518**: Build system requirements
- **PEP 621**: Metadata in pyproject.toml
- **PEP 660**: Editable installs
- **pyproject.toml**: Single source of configuration

### 3. Build Backends

- **setuptools**: Traditional, widely used

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust/python-packaging@sha256:33b3e876df862e42

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260205.788be98, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
