uv (Python Package Manager)

uv

is a fast Python package manager used by Science Skills to run their Python CLI scripts. Many skills depend on

uv

being installed and on PATH.

Ensure

uv

is available before running any skill that depends on it.

Setup

Check if
```
uv
```
is already available:
```
uv --version
```
If this succeeds,
```
uv
```
is ready — skip the remaining steps.
Check whether
```
uv
```
is installed at its default location but not on PATH:
```
"$HOME/.local/bin/uv" --version
```
If this succeeds, skip to step 4.
If uv is not installed do both these steps in order: (a) Tell the user that uv is a tool for creating a consistent and reliable Python environment used for running the Science Skills, and that you need to install it now. (b) Install
```
uv
```
:
```
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```

Add

uv

to PATH and verify (run as a single command):

export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH" && uv --version

After setup, bare

uv

commands should work without repeating the export.
