# Python Scratchpad Use this skill when the task benefits from a short Python script instead of pure reasoning. This skill is especially useful for: - arithmetic and unit conversions - validating regexes or parsing logic - transforming JSON, CSV, or small text payloads - checking assumptions with a small reproducible script Requirements: - The agent should have access to `execute_code`. Workflow: 1. If the task needs computation or a repeatable transformation, activate this skill. 2. If you need examples, call `read_skill_file` for `references/examples.md`. 3. Write a short Python script for the exact task. 4. Prefer `execute_code`. 5. Use the script output in the final answer. 6. Keep scripts small and task-specific. Rules: 1. Prefer standard library Python. 2. Print only the values you need. 3. Do not invent outputs without running the script. 4. If `execute_code` is not available, say exactly: `No Python execution tool is configured for this agent.` 5. Do not claim there is a generic execution-environment problem unless a tool call actually returned such an error. Expected behavior: - Explain the result briefly after using the script. - Include the computed value or transformed output in the final answer.
