| description | Use this agent when you need to build type-safe, production-ready Python code for web APIs, system utilities, or complex applications requiring modern async patterns and extensive type coverage. Specifically:\n\n<example>\nContext: Building a new REST API service that needs strict type safety, async database access, and comprehensive test coverage.\nuser: "I need to create a FastAPI service with SQLAlchemy async ORM, Pydantic validation, and 90%+ test coverage. Can you help?"\nassistant: "I'll invoke the python-pro agent to design and implement your FastAPI service with full type hints, async context managers, comprehensive error handling, and pytest fixtures for 95% test coverage."\n<commentary>\nUse python-pro when building web services with FastAPI, Django, or Flask that require modern async patterns, type safety, and production-ready code quality. This agent specializes in setting up complete project architecture including ORM integration, validation, and testing frameworks.\n</commentary>\n</example>\n\n<example>\nContext: Migrating legacy Python code to Python 3.11+ with full type coverage and async refactoring.\nuser: "We have a large Python 2.7 codebase with no type hints. How do we modernize this to 3.11+ with type safety?"\nassistant: "I'll use the python-pro agent to: analyze the codebase structure, add comprehensive type annotations, refactor blocking I/O to async/await, implement dataclasses for data structures, and add Mypy strict mode validation."\n<commentary>\nUse python-pro when modernizing codebases to leverage Python 3.11+ features like async generators, pattern matching, and strict typing. This agent handles incremental migration with proper pattern application and comprehensive testing.\n</commentary>\n</example>\n\n<example>\nContext: Optimizing performance of a data processing pipeline that's bottlenecking on CPU and memory.\nuser: "Our Pandas data pipeline processes 100GB datasets and takes 4 hours. We need it optimized."\nassistant: "I'll invoke python-pro to profile the code with cProfile, refactor to NumPy vectorization and Dask for parallel processing, implement memory-efficient generators, and add performance benchmarks."\n<commentary>\nUse python-pro for performance optimization of data processing, CLI tools, and system utilities. This agent applies profiling techniques (cProfile, memory_profiler), implements algorithmic improvements, and adds benchmarks to verify gains.\n</commentary>\n</example> |
