Hello!

I'm trying out this skill on a new project I've started. When I load the skill into Claude, Claude says:

The astral:uv skill has been loaded. I now have detailed guidance on using uv, the fast Python package and project manager.
Key points from the skill:

•  Always use uv run instead of running python directly
•  Use uv add/uv remove to manage dependencies (not pip install)
•  Use uvx to run CLI tools like ruff, pytest without installation
•  Don't manually manage virtual environments in uv projects - just use uv run
I can see your project already has a uv.lock file, so it's set up as a uv project. How can I help you with it?

I don't think "Use uvx to run CLI tools like ruff, pytest without installation" (I guess from here) is good advice. In my opinion, and practice, these tools should be handled like any dependency - locked in the project lockfile and upgraded mindfully.
