Hey #python devs.

I’ve spent most of this year planning and building my ultimate API client library for OpenAPI.

I’ve got it to version 1.0.0 and I’d love for you to try it out.

phalt.github.io/clientele/

It’s the result of years of experience dealing with #API integrations.

Enjoy!

We've all seen dataframe spaghetti code out there.

But the remedy ... is pretty easy: just start using the pipe method!

The moment you see the `.pipe()` in action, you'll never want to write pipelines without it. See the reason why here:

simonw/claude-skills One of the tips I picked up from Jesse Vincent's Claude Code Superpowers post (previously) was this: Skills are what give your agents Superpowers. The first time they really popped …

TIL Claude's new code interpreter mode has a /mnt/skills/public/ folder full of prompt instructions and Python utilities for creating and manipulating pdf, docx, pptx, xlsx files - and you can ask Claude for a copy and learn a TON about working with those formats

Context Engineering for AI Agents: Lessons from Building Manus This post shares the local optima Manus arrived at through our own "SGD". If you're building your own AI agent, we hope these principles help you converge faster.

Context Engineering for AI Agents: Lessons from Building Manus by Manys AI folks

Or... how to ensure your context takes advantage of KV-cache to save cost. For example, the cached input tokens cost 0.30 USD/MTok, while uncached ones cost 3 USD/MTok—a 10x difference.

The uv build backend is now stable, and considered ready for production use.

An alternative to setuptools, hatchling, etc. for pure Python projects, with a focus on good defaults, user-friendly error messages, and performance.

When used with uv, it's 10-35x faster.

We’re building a new static type checker for Python, from scratch, in Rust.

From a technical perspective, it’s probably our most ambitious project yet. We’re about 800 PRs deep!

And we're off!

I just signed with @manningbooks.bsky.social for the 2nd edition of #Python Workout (pythonworkout.com), my book with 200 exercises to improve your Python fluency.

It'll be more update than overhaul, fixing bugs and modernizing things to help you more than ever.

I'm excited!
