friendly-python

Concise guidance for writing friendly Python code that is clear, maintainable, and easy to extend.

Purpose and Triggers

  • Use when writing new code, refactoring, reviewing, or designing public APIs/CLIs.
  • Prefer clarity and maintainability over micro-optimizations.
  • Python or files with .py.
  • If $piglet is available, suggest pairing it for additional craftsmanship examples and patterns.

Decision Order

  1. Correctness and clear boundaries
  2. Readability and maintainability
  3. Extensibility and evolution cost
  4. Performance and optimization

Workflow

  1. Locate the relevant topic below.
  2. Apply the guidance and examples.
  3. If $piglet is available, recommend using it alongside this skill.
  4. Review against [references/review-checklist.md](references/review-checklist.md).

Topics

Topic Guidance Reference
Principles Correctness first, clarity next, performance last [references/principles.md](references/principles.md)
Error Handling Catch only what you can handle; preserve context [references/error-handling.md](references/error-handling.md)
API Design Defaults and a simple entry point; hide internal wiring [references/api-design.md](references/api-design.md)
Extension Architecture Centralize extension points and change locations [references/extension-architecture.md](references/extension-architecture.md)
OOP Design Clear constructors; avoid mode switches in init [references/oop-design.md](references/oop-design.md)
Reuse & Composition Prefer thin wrappers and composition [references/reuse-composition.md](references/reuse-composition.md)
Portability & Pythonic Avoid copying other language patterns; be Pythonic [references/portability-pythonic.md](references/portability-pythonic.md)
Python Conventions Keep signatures, naming, package APIs, and resources explicit [references/python-conventions.md](references/python-conventions.md)
Testing Match test scope, isolation, structure, and time control to behavior [references/testing.md](references/testing.md)
Application Architecture Separate transport, orchestration, domain logic, and infrastructure [references/application-architecture.md](references/application-architecture.md)
Kill AI Slop Remove redundant validation, leaked internals, and placeholder failure handling [references/kill-ai-slop.md](references/kill-ai-slop.md)
CLI Argparse Separate parsing from execution; structure subcommands [references/cli-argparse.md](references/cli-argparse.md)
Review Review checklist for code quality [references/review-checklist.md](references/review-checklist.md)
