Also provides production-tested code smell patterns from Dagster Labs for API design, parameter complexity, and code organization. Essential for maintaining erk's dignified Python standards.

Dignified Python - Python 3.12 Coding Standards

Core Knowledge (ALWAYS Loaded)

@dignified-python-core.md @type-annotations.md

How to Use This Skill

1. Core knowledge is loaded automatically (LBYL, pathlib, ABC, imports, exceptions)
2. Type annotations are loaded automatically (Python 3.12 specific features including PEP 695)
3. Each file is self-contained with complete guidance for its domain
