# Agent Orchestration Patterns
When building multi-agent systems and tool-calling workflows, follow these patterns for reliable, maintainable orchestration.
**Trigger Keywords**: agent, multi-agent, tool calling, orchestration, subagent, tool schema, function calling, agent state, agent routing, agent graph, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Anthropic tools
**Agent Integration**: Used by `ml-system-architect`, `agent-orchestrator-engineer`, `llm-app-engineer`, `security-and-privacy-engineer-ml`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Tool Schema with Pydantic
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import List, Literal, Optional
from enum import Enum
class SearchQuery(BaseModel):
"""Tool input for search."""
query: str = Field(..., description="Search query string")
max_results: int = Field(
10,
ge=1,
le=100,
description="Maximum number of results to return"
)
filter_domain: Optional[str] = Field(
None,
description="Optional domain to filter results (e.g., 'python.org')"
)
class SearchResult(BaseModel):
"""Individual search result."""
title: str
url: str
snippet: str
relevance_score: float = Field(ge=0.0, le=1.0)
class SearchResponse(BaseModel):
"""Tool output for search."""
results: List[SearchResult]
total_found: int
query_time_ms: float
async def search_tool(input: SearchQuery) -> SearchResponse:
"""
Search the web and return relevant results.
Args:
input: Validated search parameters
Returns:
Search results with metadata
Example:
>>> result = await search_tool(SearchQuery(
... query="Python async patterns",
... max_results=5
... ))
>>> print(result.results[0].title)
"""
# Implementation
results = await perform_search(
query=input.query,
limit=input.max_results,
domain_filter=input.filter_domain
)
return SearchResponse(
results=results,
total_found=len(results),
query_time_ms=123.45
)
# Convert to Claude tool schema
def tool_to_anthropic_schema(func, input_model: type[BaseModel]) -> dict:
"""Convert Pydantic model to Anthropic tool schema."""
return {
"name": func.__name__.replace("_tool", ""),
"description": func.__doc__.strip().split("\n")[0],
"input_schema": input_model.model_json_schema()
}
# Register tool
SEARCH_TOOL = tool_to_anthropic_schema(search_tool, SearchQuery)
```
## Agent State Management
```python
from typing import List, Dict, Any, Optional
from datetime import datetime
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
import uuid
class Message(BaseModel):
"""A single message in conversation."""
role: Literal["user", "assistant", "system"]
content: str
timestamp: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)
metadata: Dict[str, Any] = Field(default_factory=dict)
class ToolCall(BaseModel):
"""Record of a tool execution."""
tool_name: str
input: Dict[str, Any]
output: Any
duration_ms: float
success: bool
error: Optional[str] = None
timestamp: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)
class AgentState(BaseModel):
"""State for an agent conversation."""
session_id: str = Field(default_factory=lambda: str(uuid.uuid4()))
messages: List[Message] = Field(default_factory=list)
tool_calls: List[ToolCall] = Field(default_factory=list)

created_at: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)
updated_at: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)

# Could also save to database/redis here
async def load(self, session_id: str) -> Optional[AgentState]:
"""Load agent state from storage."""
return self._states.get(session_id)
```
## Tool Execution with Error Handling
```python
from typing import Callable, Any, Type
import asyncio
import logging
from datetime import datetime

class ToolError(Exception):

"""Execute tools with validation and error handling."""
def __init__(self, timeout: float = 30.0):
self.timeout = timeout
self.tools: Dict[str, tuple[Callable, Type[BaseModel]]] = {}
def register_tool(
self,
name: str,
func: Callable,
input_model: Type[BaseModel]
):
"""Register a tool with its input schema."""
self.tools[name] = (func, input_model)
async def execute(
self,
tool_name: str,
tool_input: Dict[str, Any]
) -> ToolCall:
"""

Args:
tool_name: Name of tool to execute

Returns:

"""
if tool_name not in self.tools:
error_msg = f"Unknown tool: {tool_name}"
logger.error(error_msg)
return ToolCall(
tool_name=tool_name,
input=tool_input,
output=None,
duration_ms=0.0,
success=False,
error=error_msg
)
func, input_model = self.tools[tool_name]
start_time = datetime.utcnow()
try:
# Validate input
try:
validated_input = input_model(**tool_input)
except Exception as e:
raise ToolValidationError(

)
except asyncio.TimeoutError:
raise ToolTimeoutError(
f"Tool {tool_name} exceeded timeout of {self.timeout}s"
)
duration_ms = (datetime.utcnow() - start_time).total_seconds() * 1000
logger.info(
f"Tool executed successfully",
extra={
"tool_name": tool_name,
"duration_ms": duration_ms
}

```
## Agent Orchestration Patterns
### Pattern 1: Sequential Agent Chain
```python
from typing import List
class SequentialOrchestrator:
"""Execute agents in sequence, passing output to next."""
def __init__(self, agents: List[Callable]):
self.agents = agents
async def run(self, initial_input: str) -> str:
"""
Run agents sequentially.
Args:
initial_input: Input for first agent
Returns:
Output from final agent
"""
current_input = initial_input
for i, agent in enumerate(self.agents):
logger.info(f"Running agent {i + 1}/{len(self.agents)}")
current_input = await agent(current_input)
return current_input
# Example usage
async def research_agent(query: str) -> str:
"""Research a topic."""
# Search and gather information
return "research results..."
async def synthesis_agent(research: str) -> str:
"""Synthesize research into summary."""
# Analyze and synthesize
return "synthesized summary..."
async def writer_agent(summary: str) -> str:
"""Write final article."""
# Generate polished content
return "final article..."
# Chain agents
orchestrator = SequentialOrchestrator([
research_agent,
synthesis_agent,
writer_agent
])
result = await orchestrator.run("Tell me about Python async patterns")
```
### Pattern 2: Parallel Agent Execution
```python
import asyncio
class ParallelOrchestrator:
"""Execute multiple agents concurrently."""
def __init__(self, agents: List[Callable]):
self.agents = agents
async def run(self, input: str) -> List[Any]:
"""
Run all agents in parallel with same input.
Args:
input: Input for all agents
Returns:
List of outputs from each agent
"""
tasks = [agent(input) for agent in self.agents]
results = await asyncio.gather(*tasks, return_exceptions=True)
# Handle any failures
for i, result in enumerate(results):
if isinstance(result, Exception):
logger.error(f"Agent {i} failed: {result}")
return results
# Example: Multiple specialized agents
async def technical_reviewer(code: str) -> str:
"""Review code for technical issues."""
return "technical review..."
async def security_reviewer(code: str) -> str:
"""Review code for security issues."""
return "security review..."
async def performance_reviewer(code: str) -> str:
"""Review code for performance issues."""
return "performance review..."
# Run reviewers in parallel
orchestrator = ParallelOrchestrator([
technical_reviewer,
security_reviewer,
performance_reviewer
])
reviews = await orchestrator.run(code_to_review)
```
### Pattern 3: Router-Based Orchestration
```python
from enum import Enum
class AgentType(str, Enum):
"""Available agent types."""
TECHNICAL = "technical"
CREATIVE = "creative"
ANALYTICAL = "analytical"
class RouterOrchestrator:
"""Route requests to appropriate specialized agent."""
def __init__(self):
self.agents: Dict[AgentType, Callable] = {}
def register(self, agent_type: AgentType, agent: Callable):
"""Register an agent."""
self.agents[agent_type] = agent
async def classify_request(self, request: str) -> AgentType:
"""
Classify request to determine which agent to use.
Args:
request: User request
Returns:
Agent type to handle request
"""
# Use LLM to classify
prompt = f"""Classify this request into one of:
- technical: Code, debugging, technical implementation
- creative: Writing, brainstorming, creative content
- analytical: Data analysis, research, evaluation
Request: {request}
Return only the category name."""
category = await llm_classify(prompt)
return AgentType(category.lower().strip())
async def route(self, request: str) -> str:
"""
Route request to appropriate agent.
Args:
request: User request
Returns:
Response from selected agent
"""
agent_type = await self.classify_request(request)
agent = self.agents.get(agent_type)
if not agent:
raise ValueError(f"No agent registered for type: {agent_type}")
logger.info(f"Routing to {agent_type} agent")
return await agent(request)
```
### Pattern 4: Hierarchical Agent System
```python
class SupervisorAgent:
"""Supervisor that delegates to specialized sub-agents."""
def __init__(self):
self.sub_agents: Dict[str, Callable] = {}
self.state_manager = AgentStateManager()
async def delegate(
self,
task: str,
state: AgentState
) -> str:
"""
Decompose task and delegate to sub-agents.
Args:
task: High-level task description
state: Current conversation state
Returns:
Final result after delegation
"""
# Plan decomposition using LLM
plan = await self.plan_task(task, state)
results = []
for subtask in plan.subtasks:
# Find appropriate sub-agent
agent = self.find_agent_for_task(subtask)
# Execute subtask
result = await agent(subtask.description, state)
results.append(result)
# Update state
state.add_message("assistant", f"Subtask result: {result}")
# Synthesize final result
return await self.synthesize_results(task, results, state)
async def plan_task(self, task: str, state: AgentState) -> TaskPlan:
"""Decompose task into subtasks."""
# Use LLM to plan
...
def find_agent_for_task(self, subtask: SubTask) -> Callable:
"""Select appropriate sub-agent for subtask."""
# Match subtask to agent capabilities
...
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No input validation
async def tool(input: dict) -> dict: # Raw dict!
return await do_something(input["query"])
# ✅ Better: Use Pydantic for validation
async def tool(input: SearchQuery) -> SearchResponse:
return await do_something(input.query)
# ❌ No error handling in tool execution
async def execute_tool(name: str, input: dict):
func = tools[name]
return await func(input) # Can fail!
# ✅ Better: Comprehensive error handling
async def execute_tool(name: str, input: dict) -> ToolCall:
try:
validated = InputModel(**input)
result = await func(validated)
return ToolCall(success=True, output=result)
except ValidationError as e:
return ToolCall(success=False, error=str(e))
# ❌ No timeout on tool execution
result = await long_running_tool(input) # Could hang forever!
# ✅ Better: Add timeout
result = await asyncio.wait_for(
long_running_tool(input),
timeout=30.0
)
# ❌ Stateless conversations
async def handle_request(prompt: str) -> str:
return await agent.run(prompt) # No history!
# ✅ Better: Maintain conversation state
async def handle_request(prompt: str, session_id: str) -> str:
state = await state_manager.load(session_id)
state.add_message("user", prompt)
response = await agent.run(state.get_conversation_history())
state.add_message("assistant", response)
await state_manager.save(state)
return response
# ❌ No logging of tool calls
result = await tool(input)
# ✅ Better: Log all tool executions
logger.info("Executing tool", extra={
"tool_name": tool.__name__,
"input": input.model_dump()
})
result = await tool(input)
logger.info("Tool completed", extra={
"duration_ms": duration,
"success": True
})
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Define tool schemas with Pydantic models
- ✅ Validate all tool inputs before execution
- ✅ Set timeouts on tool execution
- ✅ Handle tool errors gracefully (don't crash)
- ✅ Maintain conversation state across turns
- ✅ Log all tool executions with inputs and outputs
- ✅ Use typed responses from tools
- ✅ Implement retry logic for transient failures
- ✅ Redact sensitive data in tool logs
- ✅ Use async/await throughout agent code
- ✅ Structure agent output as Pydantic models
- ✅ Track agent performance metrics
## Auto-Apply
When building multi-agent systems:
1. Define tool schemas with Pydantic
2. Implement ToolExecutor for safe execution
3. Maintain AgentState for conversations
4. Add comprehensive error handling
5. Log all agent and tool interactions
6. Use appropriate orchestration pattern (sequential, parallel, router, hierarchical)
7. Set timeouts on all agent operations

# AI Security Patterns
When building secure LLM applications, follow these patterns for protection against prompt injection, PII leakage, and unsafe outputs.
**Trigger Keywords**: prompt injection, AI security, PII redaction, content moderation, output filtering, jailbreak, security, sanitization, content safety, guardrails
**Agent Integration**: Used by `ml-system-architect`, `llm-app-engineer`, `security-engineer`, `agent-orchestrator-engineer`

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No injection detection

response = await llm.complete(prompt)
# ✅ Better: Detect and prevent injection
detector = InjectionDetector()
if not detector.detect(user_input)["is_safe"]:
raise ValueError("Injection detected")
# ❌ Sending PII directly to LLM
prompt = f"Analyze this: {user_data}" # May contain SSN, email!
response = await llm.complete(prompt)
# ✅ Better: Redact PII first
redactor = PIIRedactor()
redacted = redactor.redact(user_data)["redacted_text"]
response = await llm.complete(redacted)
# ❌ No output filtering
return llm_response # Could contain harmful content!
# ✅ Better: Filter outputs
filter = ContentFilter()
result = filter.filter(llm_response)
if not result["is_safe"]:
return "[Content filtered]"
# ❌ No rate limiting
await llm.complete(user_input) # Can be abused!
# ✅ Better: Rate limit requests
rate_limiter.check_rate_limit(user_id, ip_address)
await llm.complete(user_input)
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Detect prompt injection attempts before processing
- ✅ Redact PII from inputs before sending to LLM
- ✅ Filter LLM outputs for unsafe content
- ✅ Use clear prompt boundaries (XML tags)
- ✅ Implement rate limiting per user/IP
- ✅ Log all security incidents
- ✅ Test with adversarial inputs
- ✅ Never include secrets in prompts
- ✅ Validate and sanitize all user inputs
- ✅ Monitor for unusual patterns
- ✅ Implement content moderation
- ✅ Use separate prompts for sensitive operations
## Auto-Apply
When building secure LLM applications:
1. Use InjectionDetector for all user inputs
2. Redact PII with PIIRedactor before LLM calls
3. Filter outputs with ContentFilter
4. Build prompts with SecurePromptBuilder
5. Implement rate limiting
6. Log security events
7. Test with injection attempts

name: async-await-checker
description: Automatically applies when writing Python functions that call async operations. Ensures proper async/await pattern usage (not asyncio.run) to prevent event loop errors.
---
# Async/Await Pattern Enforcer
When you are writing or modifying Python functions that:
- Call any function with `async def`
- Work with async I/O operations (database, HTTP, file I/O)
- Need to run in an async context (FastAPI, async frameworks)
**Always apply these patterns:**
## ✅ Correct Pattern
```python
# Helper function
async def fetch_user_data(user_id: str) -> dict:
"""Fetch user data from database."""
result = await db.query(user_id) # ✅ Use await
return result
# API endpoint (FastAPI)
@app.get("/users/{user_id}")
async def get_user(user_id: str) -> dict: # ✅ async def
data = await fetch_user_data(user_id) # ✅ await
return data
# Multiple async calls
async def process_order(order_id: str) -> dict:
# ✅ Run sequentially
user = await fetch_user(order_id)
payment = await process_payment(user.id)
# ✅ Run in parallel with asyncio.gather
results = await asyncio.gather(
send_email(user.email),
update_inventory(order_id),
log_transaction(payment.id)
)
return {"status": "success"}
```
## ❌ Incorrect Pattern (Causes Runtime Errors)
```python
# ❌ Don't do this
def fetch_user_data(user_id: str):
result = asyncio.run(db.query(user_id)) # ❌ asyncio.run in event loop = error!
return result
# ❌ Missing async
@app.get("/users/{user_id}")
def get_user(user_id: str): # ❌ Should be async def
data = fetch_user_data(user_id) # ❌ Not awaiting
return data
# ❌ Blocking in async function
async def process_order(order_id: str):
time.sleep(5) # ❌ Blocks event loop! Use asyncio.sleep(5)
return await fetch_data()
```
## Why This Matters
**Runtime Error:** `asyncio.run()` fails when called from within an already-running event loop.
**Solution:** Always use `async def` + `await` pattern.
**Performance:** Blocking operations in async functions defeat the purpose of async code.
## Common Async Operations
**Database queries:**
```python
async def get_records():
async with db.session() as session:
result = await session.execute(query)
return result.fetchall()
```
**HTTP requests:**
```python
import httpx
async def fetch_api_data(url: str):
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
response = await client.get(url)
return response.json()
```
**File I/O:**
```python
import aiofiles
async def read_file(path: str):
async with aiofiles.open(path, 'r') as f:
content = await f.read()
return content
```
## Error Handling in Async
```python
async def safe_api_call(url: str):
try:
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
response = await client.get(url, timeout=10.0)
response.raise_for_status()
return response.json()
except httpx.TimeoutException:
raise TimeoutError(f"Request to {url} timed out")
except httpx.HTTPStatusError as e:
raise APIError(f"API error: {e.response.status_code}")
```
## Testing Async Code
```python
import pytest
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_fetch_user_data():
"""Test async function"""
result = await fetch_user_data("user_123")
assert result["id"] == "user_123"
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_with_mock():
"""Test with mocked async dependency"""
with patch('module.db.query') as mock_query:
mock_query.return_value = {"id": "test"}
result = await fetch_user_data("test")
assert result["id"] == "test"
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Mixing sync and async incorrectly
def sync_function():
return asyncio.run(async_function()) # Only OK at top level!
# ❌ Not using asyncio.gather for parallel operations
async def slow_version():
result1 = await operation1() # Waits
result2 = await operation2() # Waits
result3 = await operation3() # Waits
return [result1, result2, result3]
# ✅ Better: parallel execution
async def fast_version():
results = await asyncio.gather(
operation1(),
operation2(),
operation3()
)
return results
# ❌ Forgetting error handling in gather
async def unsafe():
await asyncio.gather(op1(), op2()) # If op1 fails, op2 continues
# ✅ Better: return exceptions
async def safe():
results = await asyncio.gather(
op1(), op2(),
return_exceptions=True
)
for result in results:
if isinstance(result, Exception):
handle_error(result)
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use `async def` for any function that awaits
- ✅ Use `await` for all async calls
- ✅ Use `asyncio.gather()` for parallel operations
- ✅ Use `async with` for async context managers
- ✅ Use `asyncio.sleep()` instead of `time.sleep()`
- ✅ Add proper error handling with try/except
- ✅ Use `@pytest.mark.asyncio` for async tests
- ✅ Consider timeouts for external operations
- ✅ Use `return_exceptions=True` in gather when appropriate
## Auto-Apply
When you see code calling async functions, automatically:
1. Make the calling function `async def`
2. Use `await` for async calls
3. Update callers to also be async (chain up)
4. Add `@pytest.mark.asyncio` to tests
5. Replace blocking calls with async equivalents

## Review Comment Template
```markdown
## Review Summary
### Overview
- **Files Changed**: 5
- **Lines Changed**: +150, -30
- **Blocking Issues**: 0
- **Major Issues**: 2
- **Minor Issues**: 3
### Blocking Issues
None
### Major Issues
1. **File: `api/users.py`, Line 45** (Security)
```python
# Current
query = f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = {user_id}"
# Suggestion
query = text("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = :id")
result = db.execute(query, {"id": user_id})
```
**Reason**: SQL injection vulnerability. Always use parameterized queries.
2. **File: `services/orders.py`, Line 78** (Performance)
```python
# Current
orders = db.query(Order).all()
for order in orders:
print(order.user.email) # N+1 query
# Suggestion
orders = db.query(Order).options(joinedload(Order.user)).all()
```
**Reason**: N+1 query problem. Use eager loading.
### Minor Issues
1. **File: `models/user.py`, Line 12** (Type Safety)
- Missing return type hint on `get_full_name` method
- Add: `-> str`
2. **File: `tests/test_users.py`, Line 34** (Testing)
- Missing test for edge case: empty email
- Add test case
3. **File: `utils/helpers.py`, Line 56** (Documentation)
- Missing docstring for `format_date` function
- Add Google-style docstring
### Positive Feedback
- ✅ Good use of Pydantic models for validation
- ✅ Comprehensive error handling
- ✅ Well-structured code
- ✅ Good test coverage (85%)
### Next Steps
1. Address major issues (SQL injection, N+1)
2. Consider minor improvements
3. Update tests
4. Update documentation
**Overall Assessment**: Approve after addressing major issues.
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns in Reviews
```python
# ❌ Vague comments
"This doesn't look right"
# ✅ Better: Specific with suggestion
"SQL injection vulnerability on line 45. Use parameterized queries:
query = text('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = :id')"
# ❌ No severity indication
"You should add error handling"
# ✅ Better: Clear severity
"[BLOCKING] Missing error handling. API calls can fail and crash the app."
# ❌ Only pointing out negatives
"You forgot type hints, missing tests, bad variable names"
# ✅ Better: Balance with positives
"Good use of Pydantic! One suggestion: add type hints to helper functions"
# ❌ Style preferences as blocking
"[BLOCKING] Use single quotes instead of double quotes"
# ✅ Better: Appropriate severity
"[NITPICK] Consider single quotes for consistency"
```
## Best Practices Checklist
### Reviewer
- ✅ Use structured review checklist
- ✅ Categorize comments (correctness, security, etc.)
- ✅ Indicate severity (blocking, major, minor)
- ✅ Provide specific suggestions with code examples
- ✅ Balance criticism with positive feedback
- ✅ Focus on important issues first
- ✅ Be respectful and constructive
- ✅ Test the code if possible
- ✅ Check for security vulnerabilities
- ✅ Review tests and documentation
### Author

- ✅ Keep PRs focused and small (<400 lines)
- ✅ Respond to all comments
- ✅ Don't take feedback personally
- ✅ Ask questions if unclear
- ✅ Mark resolved comments
- ✅ Update tests and docs
- ✅ Verify all blocking issues fixed
- ✅ Request re-review after changes
## Auto-Apply
When reviewing code:
1. Use structured checklist (correctness, security, performance)
2. Categorize and prioritize issues
3. Provide specific suggestions with code
4. Mark severity (blocking, major, minor, nitpick)

# Database Migration Patterns
When managing database migrations, follow these patterns for safe, reversible schema changes.
**Trigger Keywords**: migration, alembic, database schema, upgrade, downgrade, migrate, schema change, DDL, database version, revision
**Agent Integration**: Used by `backend-architect`, `database-engineer`, `data-engineer`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Alembic Setup
```python
# alembic/env.py
from logging.config import fileConfig
from sqlalchemy import engine_from_config, pool
from alembic import context
from app.models import Base # Import your models
from app.config import settings
# Alembic Config object

## Data Migration
```python

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Making column NOT NULL immediately
def upgrade():
op.add_column('users', sa.Column('phone', sa.String(), nullable=False))
# Fails for existing rows!
# ✅ Better: Add as nullable, populate, then make NOT NULL
def upgrade():
op.add_column('users', sa.Column('phone', sa.String(), nullable=True))
op.execute("UPDATE users SET phone = '' WHERE phone IS NULL")
# Make NOT NULL in separate migration
# ❌ No downgrade implementation
def downgrade():
pass # Not reversible!
# ✅ Better: Implement proper downgrade
def downgrade():
op.drop_column('users', 'phone')
# ❌ Data migration in schema migration
def upgrade():
op.add_column('users', sa.Column('full_name', sa.String()))
op.execute("UPDATE users SET full_name = first_name || ' ' || last_name")
op.drop_column('users', 'first_name')
op.drop_column('users', 'last_name')
# Too many changes in one migration!
# ✅ Better: Split into multiple migrations
# Migration 1: Add column
# Migration 2: Migrate data
# Migration 3: Drop old columns
# ❌ No constraint naming
def upgrade():
op.create_foreign_key(None, 'orders', 'users', ['user_id'], ['id'])
# Auto-generated name!
# ✅ Better: Explicit constraint names
def upgrade():
op.create_foreign_key('fk_orders_user_id', 'orders', 'users', ['user_id'], ['id'])
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use descriptive migration names
- ✅ Always implement downgrade()
- ✅ Add columns as nullable first
- ✅ Use batch operations for SQLite
- ✅ Name all constraints explicitly
- ✅ Test migrations up and down
- ✅ Split complex changes into multiple migrations
- ✅ Create indexes before foreign keys
- ✅ Use transactions for data migrations
- ✅ Document breaking changes
- ✅ Test with production-like data volumes
- ✅ Keep migrations idempotent when possible
## Auto-Apply
When creating migrations:
1. Use `alembic revision --autogenerate -m "descriptive_name"`
2. Review generated migration carefully
3. Implement proper downgrade()
4. Add columns as nullable initially
5. Split data migrations from schema migrations
6. Name all constraints explicitly
7. Write tests for complex migrations
8. Document breaking changes in docstring

# Dependency Management Patterns
When managing Python dependencies, follow these patterns for reproducible, secure environments.
**Trigger Keywords**: dependencies, uv, poetry, pip, requirements, lock file, dependency conflict, version pinning, pyproject.toml, pip-compile
**Agent Integration**: Used by `backend-architect`, `devops-engineer`, `python-engineer`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Using uv
```bash
# Install uv (modern, fast dependency manager)
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
# Initialize project
uv init myproject
cd myproject
# Add dependencies
uv add fastapi pydantic sqlalchemy
# Add dev dependencies
uv add --dev pytest pytest-cov black ruff mypy
# Add optional dependencies
uv add --optional docs sphinx
# Install all dependencies
uv sync
# Install with optional dependencies
uv sync --extra docs
# Update dependencies
uv lock --upgrade
uv sync
# Remove dependency
uv remove package-name
```
## pyproject.toml with uv
```toml
# pyproject.toml
[project]
name = "myproject"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "My Python project"
requires-python = ">=3.11"
dependencies = [
"fastapi>=0.109.0,<1.0.0",
"pydantic>=2.5.0,<3.0.0",
"sqlalchemy>=2.0.0,<3.0.0",
"httpx>=0.26.0,<1.0.0",
]
[project.optional-dependencies]
dev = [
"pytest>=7.4.0",
"pytest-cov>=4.1.0",
"pytest-asyncio>=0.23.0",
"black>=24.0.0",
"ruff>=0.1.0",
"mypy>=1.8.0",
]
docs = [
"sphinx>=7.2.0",
"sphinx-rtd-theme>=2.0.0",
]
[tool.uv]
dev-dependencies = [
"pytest>=7.4.0",
"black>=24.0.0",
]
# Lock file is automatically managed
# uv.lock contains exact versions
```
## Using Poetry
```bash
# Install Poetry
curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 -
# Initialize project
poetry new myproject
cd myproject
# Add dependencies
poetry add fastapi pydantic sqlalchemy
# Add dev dependencies
poetry add --group dev pytest pytest-cov black ruff mypy
# Add optional dependencies
poetry add --optional sphinx
poetry add --optional sphinx-rtd-theme
# Install dependencies
poetry install
# Install with optional dependencies
poetry install --extras docs
# Update dependencies
poetry update
# Lock dependencies without installing
poetry lock --no-update
# Remove dependency
poetry remove package-name
# Show dependency tree
poetry show --tree
```
## pyproject.toml with Poetry
```toml
# pyproject.toml
[tool.poetry]
name = "myproject"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "My Python project"
authors = ["Your Name <you@example.com>"]
readme = "README.md"
packages = [{include = "myproject", from = "src"}]
[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = "^3.11"
fastapi = "^0.109.0"
pydantic = "^2.5.0"
sqlalchemy = "^2.0.0"
httpx = "^0.26.0"
# Optional dependencies
sphinx = {version = "^7.2.0", optional = true}
sphinx-rtd-theme = {version = "^2.0.0", optional = true}
[tool.poetry.group.dev.dependencies]
pytest = "^7.4.0"
pytest-cov = "^4.1.0"
pytest-asyncio = "^0.23.0"
black = "^24.0.0"
ruff = "^0.1.0"
mypy = "^1.8.0"
[tool.poetry.extras]
docs = ["sphinx", "sphinx-rtd-theme"]
[build-system]
requires = ["poetry-core"]
build-backend = "poetry.core.masonry.api"
```
## Version Constraints
```toml
# Caret requirements (^) - recommended for libraries
# ^1.2.3 means >=1.2.3,<2.0.0
fastapi = "^0.109.0"
# Tilde requirements (~) - for bug fix updates
# ~1.2.3 means >=1.2.3,<1.3.0
pytest = "~7.4.0"
# Exact version (=)
black = "24.1.0"
# Greater than or equal
httpx = ">=0.26.0"
# Compatible release (~=)
# ~=1.2.3 is equivalent to >=1.2.3,<1.3.0
sqlalchemy = "~=2.0.0"
# Multiple constraints
pydantic = ">=2.5.0,<3.0.0"
# Wildcard
requests = "2.*"
```
## Lock Files
```python
# uv.lock (generated by uv)
# Contains exact versions of all dependencies
# Commit to version control for reproducibility
# poetry.lock (generated by poetry)
# Contains exact versions and hashes
# Commit to version control
# Benefits of lock files:
# 1. Reproducible builds
# 2. Security (verify hashes)
# 3. Faster installs
# 4. Conflict detection
```
## Dependency Conflict Resolution
```python
# Check for conflicts
# uv
uv lock
# Poetry
poetry lock
# If conflicts occur:
# 1. Check dependency requirements
poetry show package-name
# 2. Update conflicting package
poetry update package-name
# 3. Use version ranges that overlap
[tool.poetry.dependencies]
fastapi = "^0.109.0" # Requires pydantic ^2.0
pydantic = "^2.5.0" # Compatible!
# 4. Override dependencies if needed (Poetry)
[tool.poetry.overrides]
"problematic-package" = "1.2.3"
```
## Security Scanning
```bash
# Check for security vulnerabilities with uv
uv pip list --outdated
# Use pip-audit for security scanning
pip install pip-audit
pip-audit
# Use safety
pip install safety
safety check
# Use Poetry's built-in audit (if available)
poetry audit
# GitHub Dependabot
# Automatically creates PRs for security updates
# Enable in .github/dependabot.yml
```
## Dependabot Configuration
```yaml
# .github/dependabot.yml
version: 2
updates:
- package-ecosystem: "pip"
directory: "/"
schedule:
interval: "weekly"
open-pull-requests-limit: 10
reviewers:

## Virtual Environment Management
```bash
# uv automatically manages virtual environments
uv venv # Create virtual environment
source .venv/bin/activate # Activate
# Poetry
poetry shell # Activate Poetry environment
poetry env info # Show environment info
poetry env list # List environments
poetry env remove python3.11 # Remove environment
# Manual venv
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate # Linux/Mac
.venv\Scripts\activate # Windows
```
## Exporting Dependencies
```bash
# Export to requirements.txt format
# uv
uv pip compile pyproject.toml -o requirements.txt
# Poetry
poetry export -f requirements.txt --output requirements.txt
poetry export -f requirements.txt --with dev --output requirements-dev.txt
poetry export -f requirements.txt --extras docs --output requirements-docs.txt
# For Docker
poetry export -f requirements.txt --without-hashes --output requirements.txt
```
## Docker Integration
```dockerfile
# Dockerfile with uv
FROM python:3.11-slim
WORKDIR /app
# Install uv
RUN curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
ENV PATH="/root/.cargo/bin:$PATH"
# Copy dependency files
COPY pyproject.toml uv.lock ./
# Install dependencies
RUN uv sync --frozen --no-dev
# Copy application
COPY . .
CMD ["python", "-m", "myproject"]
# Dockerfile with Poetry
FROM python:3.11-slim
WORKDIR /app
# Install Poetry
RUN pip install poetry==1.7.1
# Configure Poetry
ENV POETRY_NO_INTERACTION=1 \
POETRY_VIRTUALENVS_IN_PROJECT=1 \
POETRY_VIRTUALENVS_CREATE=1 \
POETRY_CACHE_DIR=/tmp/poetry_cache
# Copy dependency files
COPY pyproject.toml poetry.lock ./
# Install dependencies
RUN poetry install --without dev --no-root && rm -rf $POETRY_CACHE_DIR
# Copy application
COPY . .
# Install project
RUN poetry install --without dev
CMD ["poetry", "run", "python", "-m", "myproject"]
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No lock file
# Just pyproject.toml, no uv.lock or poetry.lock
# Non-reproducible builds!
# ✅ Better: Commit lock file
git add uv.lock # or poetry.lock
# ❌ Unpinned versions in production
dependencies = ["fastapi"] # Any version!
# ✅ Better: Use version constraints
dependencies = ["fastapi>=0.109.0,<1.0.0"]
# ❌ Using pip freeze without pip-tools
pip freeze > requirements.txt # Includes transitive deps!
# ✅ Better: Use uv or poetry for dependency management
# ❌ Committing virtual environment
git add .venv/ # Huge, not portable!
# ✅ Better: Add to .gitignore
.venv/
venv/
*.pyc
# ❌ Not separating dev dependencies
dependencies = ["fastapi", "pytest", "black"] # All mixed!
# ✅ Better: Use dev dependencies
[project]
dependencies = ["fastapi"]
[project.optional-dependencies]
dev = ["pytest", "black"]
# ❌ Ignoring security warnings
# pip install shows vulnerabilities but not addressed
# ✅ Better: Regular security audits
pip-audit
poetry audit
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use uv or Poetry for dependency management
- ✅ Commit lock files (uv.lock, poetry.lock)
- ✅ Use version constraints, not exact pins
- ✅ Separate dev dependencies from production
- ✅ Run security audits regularly
- ✅ Use Dependabot for automatic updates
- ✅ Don't commit virtual environments
- ✅ Export requirements.txt for Docker
- ✅ Pin Python version requirement
- ✅ Document dependency installation
- ✅ Test dependency updates before merging
- ✅ Use dependency groups for organization
## Auto-Apply
When managing dependencies:
1. Use uv or Poetry (not plain pip)
2. Define dependencies in pyproject.toml
3. Generate and commit lock file
4. Use version constraints (^, ~, >=)
5. Separate dev/docs dependencies
6. Run security audits (pip-audit)
7. Set up Dependabot
8. Test updates in CI before merging

description: Automatically applies when drafting or revising documentation to enforce repository voice, clarity, and navigation patterns.
category: documentation

# Documentation Style Guide
**Trigger Keywords**: documentation, doc update, README, guide, tutorial, changelog, ADR, design doc, style, tone, voice, copy edit
**Agent Integration**: Used by `spec-writer`, `technical-writer`, and `requirements-analyst` when delivering reader-facing content.
## Voice and Clarity
- Prefer concise, direct sentences; remove filler and marketing language.
- Use active voice and parallel sentence structures.
- Lead with outcomes, then supporting details.
- Keep language project-agnostic so the plugin works in any Python project.
## Structure and Navigation
- Start with a short purpose/summary before detailed sections.
- Use consistent heading levels and ordered sections; avoid nested lists where possible.
- Include quick-scannable bullets and tables for comparisons or options.
- Add cross-references to related specs, tasks, and reference docs.
## Formatting Patterns
- Use fenced code blocks with language tags for examples.
- Keep line wrapping consistent; avoid trailing whitespace.
- Use bold keywords sparingly for emphasis; prefer headings + bullets.
- For checklists, use ordered steps when sequence matters, unordered when it does not.
## Quality Checklist
- ✅ Audience and scope identified at the top.
- ✅ Clear outcomes and verification steps included.
- ✅ Terminology consistent across the document.
- ✅ Links/paths are workspace-relative (no IDE/URL schemes).
- ❌ Avoid passive voice that hides ownership or action.
- ❌ Avoid giant paragraphs; break into digestible chunks.

# Docstring Format Enforcer
Use Google-style docstrings with proper sections for all functions and classes.
## ✅ Standard Function Docstring
```python
def calculate_total(items: List[Item], tax_rate: float, discount: Optional[float] = None) -> Decimal:
"""
Calculate total price including tax and optional discount.
Computes the subtotal from items, applies discount if provided,
then adds tax to get final total.
Args:
items: List of items with price and quantity
tax_rate: Tax rate as decimal (e.g., 0.08 for 8%)
discount: Optional discount as decimal (e.g., 0.10 for 10% off)
Returns:
Total price as Decimal with 2 decimal places
Raises:
ValueError: If tax_rate is negative or > 1
ValueError: If discount is negative or > 1
Example:
>>> items = [Item(price=10.00, quantity=2)]
>>> calculate_total(items, tax_rate=0.08)
Decimal('21.60')

## ✅ Async Function with Security Note
```python
async def fetch_user_payment_methods(user_id: str, include_expired: bool = False) -> List[PaymentMethod]:
"""
Fetch payment methods for a user.

- expiry: Expiration date (MM/YY format)
- brand: Card brand (visa, mastercard, etc.)
Raises:
UserNotFoundError: If user_id doesn't exist
DatabaseError: If database connection fails
Security Note:
Returns payment tokens that can be used for transactions.
- Never log tokens in full
- Always use HTTPS for transmission
- Tokens expire after 1 hour of inactivity
Example:
>>> methods = await fetch_user_payment_methods("user_123")
>>> for method in methods:

# Implementation
```
## Required Sections
**Always include:**
- ✅ Brief description (one-line summary)
- ✅ Extended description (what it does, how it works)
-`Args:` section (if has parameters)
-`Returns:` section (if returns value)

-`Raises:` section (if raises exceptions)
-`Example:` or `Example Response:` section
-`Security Note:` (if handles PII, payment data, auth)
-`Note:` or `Warning:` for important caveats
-`Attributes:` (for classes)
- ✅ Use cases (for tools: "Use this when...")
## Args Section Format
```python
def function(
required_param: str,
optional_param: Optional[int] = None,
flag: bool = False
) -> dict:
"""
Function description.
Args:
required_param: Description of required parameter.
Can span multiple lines with 4-space indent.
optional_param: Description of optional parameter.
Default: None
flag: Whether to enable feature. Default: False
Returns:
Dictionary containing results
"""
```
## Returns Section Format
```python
def get_user_stats(user_id: str) -> dict:
"""
Get user statistics.
Returns:
Dictionary containing:
- total_orders: Total number of orders (int)
- total_spent: Total amount spent (Decimal)
- last_order_date: Date of last order (datetime)
- loyalty_tier: Current loyalty tier (str)
"""
def process_payment(amount: Decimal) -> Tuple[bool, Optional[str]]:
"""
Process payment transaction.
Returns:
Tuple of (success, error_message) where:
- success: True if payment succeeded, False otherwise
- error_message: Error description if failed, None if succeeded

```
## Raises Section Format
```python
def divide(a: float, b: float) -> float:
"""
Divide two numbers.
Args:
a: Numerator
b: Denominator
Returns:
Result of division
Raises:
ValueError: If b is zero
TypeError: If a or b are not numeric
"""
if b == 0:
raise ValueError("Cannot divide by zero")
return a / b
```
## Security Note Guidelines
**Add Security Note when function:**
- Handles payment tokens/cards
- Logs or processes PII data
- Accesses customer data
- Performs financial transactions
- Requires authentication/authorization
- Handles secrets or API keys
**Security Note should mention:**
```python
"""
Security Note:
Handles customer payment data (PCI-DSS Level 1).
- All PII is redacted in logs
- Payment tokens expire after 1 hour
- Requires user authentication
- Never log full card numbers
- Always use HTTPS for transmission
"""
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No docstring
def calculate_total(items, tax):
return sum(items) * (1 + tax)
# ❌ Minimal/unhelpful docstring
def calculate_total(items, tax):
"""Calculate total."""
return sum(items) * (1 + tax)
# ❌ Wrong format (not Google-style)
def calculate_total(items, tax):
"""
Calculate total.

:param tax: The tax
:return: The total
"""
# ❌ No type information
def calculate_total(items, tax):
"""
Calculate total.
Args:
items: List of items
tax: Tax rate
Returns:
Total
"""
# Types should be in signature AND described in docstring!
# ❌ Vague descriptions
def process(data):
"""
Process data.
Args:
data: The data
Returns:
The result
"""
# Not helpful! What kind of data? What processing? What result?
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Start with brief one-line summary
- ✅ Add detailed description for complex functions
- ✅ Document all parameters with clear descriptions
- ✅ Specify parameter types (should match type hints)
- ✅ Document return value structure and type
- ✅ List all exceptions that can be raised
- ✅ Add examples for non-obvious usage
- ✅ Include Security Note for sensitive operations
- ✅ Use complete sentences with proper punctuation
- ✅ Be specific about formats (ISO dates, decimals, etc.)
- ✅ Mention side effects (logs, DB writes, API calls)
- ✅ Document default values for optional parameters
## Auto-Apply
When writing functions:
1. Start with brief one-line description
2. Add extended description if needed
3. Add `Args:` section with all parameters
4. Add `Returns:` section describing output
5. Add `Raises:` if throws exceptions
6. Add `Security Note:` if handling sensitive data
7. Add `Example:` for complex usage
8. Use complete sentences
9. Be specific about data types and formats

name: dynaconf-config
description: Automatically applies when adding configuration settings. Ensures proper dynaconf pattern with @env, @int, @bool type casting in settings.toml and environment-specific overrides.
---
# Dynaconf Configuration Pattern Enforcer
When adding new configuration to `settings.toml`, always follow the dynaconf pattern.
## ✅ Correct Pattern
```toml
# settings.toml
[default]
# Base configuration with type casting
api_base_url = "@env API_BASE_URL|http://localhost:8080"
api_timeout = "@int 30"
feature_enabled = "@bool true"
max_retries = "@int 3"
# API endpoints (no @ prefix for strings)
api_endpoint = "/api/v1/endpoint"
[dev_local]
# Override for local development
api_base_url = "@env API_BASE_URL|http://localhost:8080"
[dev_remote]
# Override for remote development
api_base_url = "@env API_BASE_URL|http://gateway-service"
[production]
# Production overrides
api_base_url = "@env API_BASE_URL|https://api.production.com"
api_timeout = "@int 60"
```
## Type Casting Directives
**Use appropriate prefixes:**
- `@env VAR|default` - Environment variable with fallback
- `@int 123` - Cast to integer
- `@bool true` - Cast to boolean
- `@float 1.5` - Cast to float
- `@path ./dir` - Convert to Path object
- No prefix - String value
## Environment Variable Override
**Pattern:** `APPNAME_SETTING_NAME`
Example:
```toml
# In settings.toml
api_timeout = "@int 30"
# Override via environment
export APP_API_TIMEOUT=60
```
## Configuration Access
```python
from dynaconf import Dynaconf
settings = Dynaconf(
settings_files=['settings.toml', '.secrets.toml'],
environments=True,
load_dotenv=True,
)
timeout = settings.api_timeout # Returns int 30
url = settings.api_base_url # Returns string
```
## Common Patterns
**API Configuration:**
```toml
service_api_base_url = "@env SERVICE_API_URL|http://localhost:8080"
service_endpoint = "/api/v1/endpoint/{param}"
service_timeout = "@int 30"
```
**Feature Flags:**
```toml
feature_enabled = "@bool true"
feature_beta_mode = "@bool false"
```
**Database Paths:**
```toml
db_path = "@path data/database.db"
```
**Secrets Management:**
```toml
# settings.toml (checked into git)
api_key = "@env API_KEY"
# .secrets.toml (gitignored)
api_key = "actual-secret-key"
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```toml
# ❌ Don't hardcode secrets
api_key = "sk-1234567890"
# ❌ Don't forget type casting for numbers
timeout = "30" # Will be string, not int
# ❌ Don't mix environments in same section
[default]
api_url = "https://production.com" # Should be in [production]
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Add to `[default]` section first
- ✅ Use appropriate `@` type casting
- ✅ Add environment variable overrides with `@env`
- ✅ Add to environment-specific sections as needed
- ✅ Document in comments what the setting does
- ✅ Keep secrets in `.secrets.toml` (gitignored)
- ✅ Use consistent naming conventions (snake_case)
- ✅ Provide sensible defaults
## Auto-Apply
When adding configuration:
1. Add to `[default]` section first
2. Use appropriate `@` type casting
3. Add environment variable overrides
4. Add to environment-specific sections as needed
5. Document in comments what the setting does

# Evaluation Metrics for LLM Applications
When evaluating LLM performance, follow these patterns for rigorous, reproducible evaluation.
**Trigger Keywords**: evaluation, eval, metrics, benchmark, test set, A/B test, LLM judge, performance testing, accuracy, precision, recall, F1, BLEU, ROUGE, experiment tracking

## ❌ Anti-Patterns

# ❌ Only exact match metric
score = sum(p == r for p, r in zip(preds, refs)) / len(preds)
# ✅ Better: Multiple metrics
metrics = {

"f1": TokenOverlap().compute(preds, refs)["f1"],
"semantic_sim": await SemanticSimilarity().compute(preds, refs)
}
# ❌ No experiment tracking

# ✅ Better: Track all experiments

config={"version": "2.0"},
metrics={"f1": 0.78}
)
# ❌ Cherry-picking examples
good_examples = [ex for ex in dataset if model(ex) == expected]
# ✅ Better: Use full representative dataset
results = evaluate_on_full_dataset(model, dataset)
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Create representative evaluation datasets
- ✅ Version control eval datasets
- ✅ Use multiple complementary metrics
- ✅ Include LLM-as-judge for qualitative evaluation
- ✅ Run A/B tests for variant comparison
- ✅ Track all experiments with config and metrics
- ✅ Measure latency alongside quality metrics
- ✅ Use statistical significance testing
- ✅ Evaluate on diverse examples (easy, medium, hard)
- ✅ Include edge cases and adversarial examples
- ✅ Document evaluation methodology
- ✅ Set up automated evaluation in CI/CD
## Auto-Apply
When evaluating LLM systems:
1. Create EvalDataset with representative examples
2. Compute multiple metrics (exact match, F1, semantic similarity)
3. Use LLM-as-judge for qualitative assessment
4. Run A/B tests comparing variants
5. Track experiments with ExperimentTracker
6. Measure latency alongside quality
7. Save results for reproducibility

# FastAPI Endpoint Pattern Enforcer
When building APIs with FastAPI, follow these patterns for consistent, well-documented, and maintainable endpoints.
## ✅ Correct Pattern
```python
from fastapi import APIRouter, Depends, HTTPException, status, Query
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import Optional
router = APIRouter(prefix="/api/v1/users", tags=["users"])
class UserCreate(BaseModel):
"""Request model for user creation."""
email: str
name: str
age: Optional[int] = None
class UserResponse(BaseModel):
"""Response model for user endpoints."""
id: str
email: str
name: str
created_at: str
@router.post(
"/",
response_model=UserResponse,
status_code=status.HTTP_201_CREATED,
summary="Create a new user",
responses={
201: {"description": "User created successfully"},
409: {"description": "Email already registered"},
422: {"description": "Validation error"}
}
)
async def create_user(
user: UserCreate,
current_user: User = Depends(get_current_user),
user_service: UserService = Depends()
) -> UserResponse:
"""
Create a new user account.
- **email**: Valid email address
- **name**: User's full name
- **age**: Optional user age
"""
try:
return await user_service.create(user)
except DuplicateEmailError:
raise HTTPException(
status_code=status.HTTP_409_CONFLICT,
detail="Email already registered"
)
```
## Router Organization
```python
from fastapi import APIRouter
# Organize endpoints by resource
users_router = APIRouter(prefix="/api/v1/users", tags=["users"])
products_router = APIRouter(prefix="/api/v1/products", tags=["products"])
orders_router = APIRouter(prefix="/api/v1/orders", tags=["orders"])
# Register routers in main app
app = FastAPI()
app.include_router(users_router)
app.include_router(products_router)
app.include_router(orders_router)
```
## Dependency Injection
```python
from fastapi import Depends, HTTPException, status
from fastapi.security import HTTPBearer, HTTPAuthorizationCredentials
from typing import Annotated
security = HTTPBearer()
async def get_current_user(
credentials: HTTPAuthorizationCredentials = Depends(security)
) -> User:
"""Extract and validate current user from token."""
token = credentials.credentials
user = await verify_token(token)
if not user:
raise HTTPException(
status_code=status.HTTP_401_UNAUTHORIZED,
detail="Invalid authentication credentials"
)
return user
async def get_admin_user(
current_user: User = Depends(get_current_user)
) -> User:
"""Verify user has admin privileges."""
if not current_user.is_admin:
raise HTTPException(
status_code=status.HTTP_403_FORBIDDEN,
detail="Admin privileges required"
)
return current_user
# Use in endpoints
@router.get("/admin-only")
async def admin_endpoint(
admin: User = Depends(get_admin_user)
) -> dict:
"""Admin-only endpoint."""
return {"message": "Admin access granted"}
```
## Request Validation
```python
from fastapi import Query, Path, Body
from pydantic import Field
@router.get("/users")
async def list_users(
page: int = Query(1, ge=1, description="Page number"),
page_size: int = Query(10, ge=1, le=100, description="Items per page"),
search: Optional[str] = Query(None, min_length=1, max_length=100),
sort_by: str = Query("created_at", regex="^(name|email|created_at)$")
) -> list[UserResponse]:
"""List users with pagination and filtering."""
return await user_service.list(
page=page,
page_size=page_size,
search=search,
sort_by=sort_by
)
@router.get("/users/{user_id}")
async def get_user(
user_id: str = Path(..., min_length=1, description="User ID")
) -> UserResponse:
"""Get user by ID."""
user = await user_service.get(user_id)
if not user:
raise HTTPException(
status_code=status.HTTP_404_NOT_FOUND,
detail=f"User {user_id} not found"
)
return user
@router.patch("/users/{user_id}")
async def update_user(
user_id: str = Path(...),
update: dict = Body(..., example={"name": "New Name"})
) -> UserResponse:
"""Partially update user."""
return await user_service.update(user_id, update)
```
## Error Handling
```python
from fastapi import HTTPException, status
from fastapi.responses import JSONResponse
from fastapi.exceptions import RequestValidationError
# Service layer exceptions
class ServiceError(Exception):
"""Base service exception."""
pass
class NotFoundError(ServiceError):
"""Resource not found."""
pass
class DuplicateError(ServiceError):
"""Duplicate resource."""
pass
# Convert service exceptions to HTTP exceptions
@router.post("/users")
async def create_user(user: UserCreate) -> UserResponse:
"""Create user with proper error handling."""
try:
return await user_service.create(user)
except DuplicateError as e:
raise HTTPException(
status_code=status.HTTP_409_CONFLICT,
detail=str(e)
)
except ServiceError as e:
raise HTTPException(
status_code=status.HTTP_500_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR,
detail="Internal server error"
)
# Global exception handlers
@app.exception_handler(RequestValidationError)
async def validation_exception_handler(request, exc):
"""Handle validation errors."""
return JSONResponse(
status_code=status.HTTP_422_UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY,
content={
"detail": "Validation error",
"errors": exc.errors()
}
)
@app.exception_handler(ServiceError)
async def service_exception_handler(request, exc):
"""Handle service errors."""
return JSONResponse(
status_code=status.HTTP_500_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR,
content={"detail": "Internal server error"}
)
```
## Response Models
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import Generic, TypeVar, List
T = TypeVar('T')
class PaginatedResponse(BaseModel, Generic[T]):
"""Generic paginated response."""
items: List[T]
total: int
page: int
page_size: int
has_next: bool
class SuccessResponse(BaseModel):
"""Generic success response."""
message: str
data: Optional[dict] = None
class ErrorResponse(BaseModel):
"""Error response model."""
detail: str
code: Optional[str] = None
@router.get(
"/users",
response_model=PaginatedResponse[UserResponse]
)
async def list_users(
page: int = Query(1, ge=1),
page_size: int = Query(10, ge=1, le=100)
) -> PaginatedResponse[UserResponse]:
"""List users with pagination."""
users, total = await user_service.list_paginated(page, page_size)
return PaginatedResponse(
items=users,
total=total,
page=page,
page_size=page_size,
has_next=total > page * page_size
)
```
## Async Operations
```python
import httpx
from fastapi import BackgroundTasks
async def fetch_external_data(user_id: str) -> dict:
"""Fetch data from external service."""
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
response = await client.get(f"https://api.example.com/users/{user_id}")
response.raise_for_status()
return response.json()
async def send_email(email: str, subject: str, body: str):
"""Send email asynchronously."""
# Email sending logic
pass
@router.post("/users/{user_id}/notify")
async def notify_user(
user_id: str,
background_tasks: BackgroundTasks
) -> SuccessResponse:
"""Notify user via email in background."""
user = await user_service.get(user_id)
# Add task to background
background_tasks.add_task(
send_email,
email=user.email,
subject="Notification",
body="You have a new notification"
)
return SuccessResponse(message="Notification scheduled")
```
## OpenAPI Documentation
```python
from fastapi import FastAPI
app = FastAPI(
title="My API",
description="Comprehensive API for user management",
version="1.0.0",
docs_url="/docs",
redoc_url="/redoc",
openapi_url="/openapi.json"
)
@router.post(
"/users",
summary="Create user",
description="Create a new user with email and name",
response_description="Created user object",
tags=["users"],
responses={
201: {
"description": "User created",
"content": {
"application/json": {
"example": {
"id": "usr_123",
"email": "user@example.com",
"name": "John Doe"
}
}
}
},
409: {"description": "Email already exists"}
}
)
async def create_user(user: UserCreate) -> UserResponse:
"""
Create a new user.
Parameters:
- **email**: User email address (required)
- **name**: User full name (required)
"""
return await user_service.create(user)
```
## Middleware
```python
from fastapi.middleware.cors import CORSMiddleware
from fastapi.middleware.gzip import GZipMiddleware
from starlette.middleware.base import BaseHTTPMiddleware
import time
# CORS
app.add_middleware(
CORSMiddleware,
allow_origins=["https://example.com"],
allow_credentials=True,
allow_methods=["*"],
allow_headers=["*"]
)
# Compression
app.add_middleware(GZipMiddleware, minimum_size=1000)
# Custom middleware
class TimingMiddleware(BaseHTTPMiddleware):
"""Log request timing."""
async def dispatch(self, request, call_next):
start_time = time.time()
response = await call_next(request)
duration = time.time() - start_time
response.headers["X-Process-Time"] = str(duration)
return response
app.add_middleware(TimingMiddleware)
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No type hints
@app.get("/users")
async def get_users(): # Missing return type and parameter types
pass
# ✅ Better: full type hints
@app.get("/users")
async def get_users(
page: int = Query(1)
) -> list[UserResponse]:
pass
# ❌ No response model
@app.get("/users")
async def get_users() -> dict: # Returns dict (no validation)
return {"users": [...]}
# ✅ Better: use Pydantic response model
@app.get("/users", response_model=list[UserResponse])
async def get_users() -> list[UserResponse]:
return await user_service.list()
# ❌ Generic exception handling
@app.post("/users")
async def create_user(user: UserCreate):
try:
return await user_service.create(user)
except Exception: # Too broad!
raise HTTPException(500, "Error")
# ✅ Better: specific exception handling
@app.post("/users")
async def create_user(user: UserCreate):
try:
return await user_service.create(user)
except DuplicateError as e:
raise HTTPException(409, str(e))
except ValidationError as e:
raise HTTPException(422, str(e))
# ❌ Blocking I/O in async endpoint
@app.get("/data")
async def get_data():
data = requests.get("https://api.example.com") # Blocking!
return data.json()
# ✅ Better: use async HTTP client
@app.get("/data")
async def get_data():
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
response = await client.get("https://api.example.com")
return response.json()
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use `APIRouter` for organizing endpoints
- ✅ Define Pydantic models for requests and responses
- ✅ Add `response_model` to all endpoints
- ✅ Use appropriate HTTP status codes
- ✅ Document endpoints with docstrings
- ✅ Handle service exceptions and convert to HTTP exceptions
- ✅ Use dependency injection with `Depends()`
- ✅ Add validation to query/path/body parameters
- ✅ Use async/await for all I/O operations
- ✅ Add OpenAPI documentation
- ✅ Use background tasks for long-running operations
- ✅ Implement proper error responses
## Auto-Apply
When creating FastAPI endpoints:
1. Define request/response Pydantic models
2. Use `APIRouter` with prefix and tags
3. Add type hints to all parameters
4. Specify `response_model` and `status_code`
5. Document with docstring
6. Handle exceptions properly
7. Use `Depends()` for authentication and services

# Git Workflow Standards
When working with git, follow these patterns for consistent, professional version control.
**Trigger Keywords**: git, commit, branch, pull request, PR, merge, release, version control, conventional commits, semantic versioning
**Agent Integration**: Used by `backend-architect`, `devops-engineer`, `release-manager`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Conventional Commits
```bash
# Format: <type>(<scope>): <description>
#
# Types:
# - feat: New feature
# - fix: Bug fix
# - docs: Documentation only
# - style: Code style (formatting, semicolons)
# - refactor: Code restructuring
# - perf: Performance improvement
# - test: Adding tests
# - build: Build system changes
# - ci: CI configuration changes
# - chore: Other changes (dependencies, etc.)
# Examples:
# Feature commits
feat(auth): add JWT authentication
feat(api): add user profile endpoint
feat: implement password reset flow
# Bug fix commits
fix(database): resolve connection pool leak
fix(api): correct status code for validation errors
fix: handle null values in user input
# Documentation commits
docs(readme): update installation instructions
docs: add API documentation
docs(contributing): add code review guidelines
# Performance commits
perf(query): optimize user search query
perf: reduce memory usage in data processing
# Refactoring commits
refactor(models): simplify user model structure
refactor: extract common validation logic
# Breaking changes (add !)
feat(api)!: change response format to JSON:API spec
fix(auth)!: remove deprecated login endpoint
# With body and footer
feat(payments): add Stripe integration
Implement Stripe payment processing with webhooks
for subscription management.
BREAKING CHANGE: Payment API now requires Stripe account
Closes #123
```

git commit -m "quick fix" # Bad practice!
# ✅ Better: Use feature branch
git checkout -b bugfix/fix-issue
git commit -m "fix: resolve issue"
# Then create PR
# ❌ Large commits with mixed changes
git add .
git commit -m "add feature and fix bugs and update docs"
# ✅ Better: Separate commits
git add feature.py
git commit -m "feat: add new feature"
git add bugfix.py
git commit -m "fix: resolve bug"
git add docs/
git commit -m "docs: update documentation"
# ❌ No branch naming convention
git checkout -b my-changes
git checkout -b fix
git checkout -b update-stuff
# ✅ Better: Consistent naming
git checkout -b feature/add-authentication
git checkout -b bugfix/fix-validation-error
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use conventional commit format
- ✅ Follow branch naming convention
- ✅ Create descriptive PR descriptions
- ✅ Keep commits small and focused
- ✅ Write commits in imperative mood
- ✅ Reference issues in commits
- ✅ Use semantic versioning
- ✅ Maintain CHANGELOG.md
- ✅ Set up pre-commit hooks
- ✅ Review your own code before requesting review
- ✅ Keep PR size manageable (<400 lines)
- ✅ Squash/rebase before merging
## Auto-Apply
When working with git:
1. Use conventional commit format: `type(scope): description`
2. Create branch with type prefix: `feature/`, `bugfix/`
3. Write descriptive PR descriptions with checklist
4. Update CHANGELOG.md for releases
5. Tag releases with semantic versions
6. Set up pre-commit hooks
7. Keep commits focused and atomic

description: Automatically applies when building LLM applications. Ensures proper async patterns for LLM calls, streaming responses, token management, retry logic, and error handling.
category: ai-llm

# LLM Application Architecture Patterns
When building applications with LLM APIs (Claude, OpenAI, etc.), follow these patterns for reliable, efficient, and maintainable systems.
**Trigger Keywords**: LLM, AI application, model API, Claude, OpenAI, GPT, language model, LLM call, completion, chat completion, embeddings
**Agent Integration**: Used by `ml-system-architect`, `llm-app-engineer`, `agent-orchestrator-engineer`, `rag-architect`, `performance-and-cost-engineer-llm`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Async LLM Calls
```python
import httpx
import anthropic
from typing import AsyncIterator
import asyncio
class LLMClient:
"""Async LLM client with proper error handling."""
def __init__(self, api_key: str, timeout: int = 60):
self.client = anthropic.AsyncAnthropic(
api_key=api_key,
timeout=httpx.Timeout(timeout, connect=5.0)
)
self.model = "claude-sonnet-4-20250514"
async def complete(
self,
prompt: str,
system: str | None = None,
max_tokens: int = 1024,

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Synchronous API calls in async code
def complete(prompt: str) -> str: # Should be async!
response = anthropic.Anthropic().messages.create(...)
return response.content[0].text
# ✅ Better: Use async client
async def complete(prompt: str) -> str:
async_client = anthropic.AsyncAnthropic()
response = await async_client.messages.create(...)
return response.content[0].text
# ❌ No timeout
client = anthropic.AsyncAnthropic() # No timeout!
# ✅ Better: Set reasonable timeout
client = anthropic.AsyncAnthropic(
timeout=httpx.Timeout(60.0, connect=5.0)
)
# ❌ No error handling
async def complete(prompt: str) -> str:
response = await client.messages.create(...) # Can fail!
return response.content[0].text
# ✅ Better: Handle specific errors
async def complete(prompt: str) -> str:
try:
response = await client.messages.create(...)
return response.content[0].text
except anthropic.RateLimitError:
# Handle rate limit
raise LLMRateLimitError("Rate limit exceeded")
except anthropic.APITimeoutError:
# Handle timeout
raise LLMTimeoutError("Request timed out")
# ❌ No token tracking
async def complete(prompt: str) -> str:
return await client.messages.create(...) # No idea of cost!
# ✅ Better: Track tokens and cost
async def complete(prompt: str) -> str:
response = await client.messages.create(...)

extra={
"input_tokens": response.usage.input_tokens,
"output_tokens": response.usage.output_tokens,
"cost": estimate_cost(response.usage)
}
)
return response.content[0].text
# ❌ Sequential processing
async def process_many(prompts: List[str]) -> List[str]:
results = []
for prompt in prompts: # Sequential!
result = await complete(prompt)
results.append(result)
return results
# ✅ Better: Concurrent processing with limits

semaphore = asyncio.Semaphore(5) # Max 5 concurrent
async def process_one(prompt):
async with semaphore:
return await complete(prompt)
return await asyncio.gather(*[process_one(p) for p in prompts])
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use async/await for all LLM API calls
- ✅ Set reasonable timeouts (30-60 seconds)
- ✅ Implement retry logic with exponential backoff
- ✅ Handle specific API exceptions (rate limit, timeout, connection)
- ✅ Track token usage and estimated cost
- ✅ Log all LLM calls with request IDs
- ✅ Use streaming for long responses
- ✅ Implement prompt caching for repeated system prompts
- ✅ Process multiple requests concurrently with semaphores
- ✅ Redact sensitive data in logs
- ✅ Set max_tokens to prevent runaway costs
- ✅ Use appropriate temperature for task (0 for deterministic, 1 for creative)
## Auto-Apply
When making LLM API calls:
1. Use async client (AsyncAnthropic, AsyncOpenAI)
2. Add timeout configuration
3. Implement retry logic for transient errors
4. Track tokens and cost
5. Log requests with structured logging
6. Use streaming for real-time responses
7. Handle rate limits gracefully

# Model Selection and Provider Management
When selecting LLM models and managing providers, follow these patterns for optimal cost, performance, and reliability.
**Trigger Keywords**: model selection, provider, model comparison, fallback, OpenAI, Anthropic, model routing, cost optimization, model capabilities, provider failover
**Agent Integration**: Used by `ml-system-architect`, `performance-and-cost-engineer-llm`, `llm-app-engineer`

# ✅ Better: Implement fallback chain

# ❌ Always using most expensive model

# ✅ Better: Route based on task complexity
model_id = router.route(prompt) # Uses appropriate model
# ❌ No cost tracking

# ✅ Better: Track and optimize costs
cost = optimizer.estimate_cost(model_id, input_tokens, output_tokens)
logger.info(f"Request cost: ${cost:.4f}")
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use model registry to centralize model metadata
- ✅ Implement routing to select appropriate models
- ✅ Set up fallback chains for reliability
- ✅ Track and optimize costs per model
- ✅ Consider quality tier for each use case
- ✅ Monitor model performance metrics
- ✅ Use cheaper models for simple tasks
- ✅ Cache model responses when appropriate
- ✅ Test fallback chains regularly
- ✅ Document model selection rationale
- ✅ Review costs regularly and optimize
- ✅ Keep model metadata up to date
## Auto-Apply
When selecting models:
1. Register models in ModelRegistry with capabilities and pricing
2. Implement ModelRouter for task-based routing
3. Set up FallbackChain for reliability
4. Use CostOptimizer to find cost-effective options
5. Track costs per model and request
6. Document routing logic and fallback strategy
7. Monitor model performance and costs

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No metric labels

# Can't filter by endpoint or status!
# ✅ Better: Use labels

)
# ❌ Too many metric labels
requests = Counter(
'requests',
'Requests',

) # Cardinality explosion!
# ✅ Better: Reasonable labels
requests = Counter(
'requests',
'Requests',
['method', 'endpoint', 'status']
)
# ❌ No alert threshold
# Just logging errors without alerts
# ✅ Better: Define alert rules
if error_rate > 0.01:
trigger_alert("High error rate")
# ❌ Vague alert messages
"Something is wrong"
# ✅ Better: Specific with context
f"Error rate {error_rate:.2%} exceeds threshold 1% for endpoint /api/users"
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Instrument critical paths with metrics
- ✅ Use appropriate metric types (Counter, Gauge, Histogram)
- ✅ Add meaningful labels to metrics
- ✅ Define SLOs/SLIs for key services
- ✅ Create alert rules with thresholds
- ✅ Set up alert notifications (Slack, PagerDuty)
- ✅ Build dashboards for visualization
- ✅ Track error budgets
- ✅ Monitor latency percentiles (P50, P95, P99)
- ✅ Track request rates and error rates
- ✅ Monitor resource usage (CPU, memory)
- ✅ Set up on-call rotation
## Auto-Apply
When implementing monitoring:
1. Add Prometheus metrics to key endpoints
2. Define SLOs/SLIs for service
3. Create alert rules with thresholds
4. Set up alert notifications
5. Build Grafana dashboards
6. Track error budgets
7. Monitor latency and error rates

```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Unstructured logging
print(f"LLM call took {duration}s") # Can't parse!
logger.info("Request completed") # No context!
# ✅ Better: Structured with context
logger.info(
"LLM request completed",
duration_seconds=duration,
model=model,
tokens=tokens,
request_id=request_id
)
# ❌ No request correlation
logger.info("Started processing")
# ... other logs ...
logger.info("Finished processing") # Can't correlate!
# ✅ Better: Use request IDs
RequestContext.set_request_id()
logger.info("Started processing") # Has request_id
logger.info("Finished processing") # Same request_id
# ❌ Logging full prompts/responses
logger.info(f"Prompt: {full_prompt}") # PII leak + huge logs!
# ✅ Better: Log length and preview
logger.info(
"LLM request",
prompt_length=len(prompt),
prompt_preview=redact(prompt[:100])
)
# ❌ No metrics
await llm_complete(prompt) # No visibility!
# ✅ Better: Track metrics
with metrics.track_llm_call(model):
result = await llm_complete(prompt)
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use structured (JSON) logging
- ✅ Include request IDs in all logs
- ✅ Track LLM-specific metrics (tokens, cost, latency)
- ✅ Implement distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry)
- ✅ Redact PII from logs
- ✅ Use log levels appropriately (INFO, ERROR)
- ✅ Add context to all log messages
- ✅ Collect metrics in Prometheus format
- ✅ Monitor error rates and latencies
- ✅ Set up alerts for anomalies
## Auto-Apply
When adding observability:
1. Use StructuredLogger for JSON logs
2. Add RequestContext middleware
3. Implement LLM-specific logging
4. Set up OpenTelemetry tracing
5. Define Prometheus metrics
6. Redact sensitive data

# OpenSpec Authoring Patterns
**Trigger Keywords**: openspec, proposal, change-id, tasks.md, spec delta, requirement, scenario, validation, archive
**Agent Integration**: Used by `spec-writer` and planning agents when creating or updating OpenSpec proposals, tasks, and spec files.
## Metadata & Frontmatter
- Proposals/Tasks: include `Change ID`, `Status`, `Date`, and `Author` near the top.
- Specs: start with `# Spec: <Title>` plus capability/status/related lines.
- Use verb-led, kebab-case `change-id` (e.g., `add-doc-spec-writer-agent`).
- Keep managed instruction blocks intact when present.
## Required Section Ordering
- **proposal.md**: Executive Summary → Background → Goals → Scope/Non-Goals → Approach → Risks & Mitigations → Validation → Open Questions.
- **tasks.md**: Overview → Phase/Task grouping with checklists; include validation notes where possible.
- **spec.md (delta)**: Overview → `## ADDED|MODIFIED|REMOVED Requirements` → Scenarios per requirement with Given/When/Then.
## Requirement & Scenario Patterns
- Each requirement MUST have at least one `#### Scenario:` block.
- Scenario steps use bolded **Given/When/Then** lines on their own lines.
- Keep requirements testable and behavior-focused; avoid solutions in "Then".
- Use backticks for capability or file references when helpful.
## Validation Checklist
- ✅ Run `openspec validate <change-id> --strict` when available.
- ✅ Ensure every referenced skill/agent/capability exists or is added in the change.
- ✅ Confirm paths use workspace-relative notation (`openspec/specs/...`).
- ✅ Keep documentation generic and reusable across Python projects.
## Archiving Notes
- Archive changes only after deployment, using date-prefixed folder under `openspec/archive/`.
- Use `openspec archive <id> --skip-specs --yes` only for tooling-only changes.

# Performance Profiling Patterns
When profiling Python applications, follow these patterns for effective performance analysis.
**Trigger Keywords**: profiling, performance, benchmark, optimization, cProfile, line_profiler, memory_profiler, async profiling, bottleneck, CPU profiling
**Agent Integration**: Used by `performance-engineer`, `backend-architect`, `optimization-engineer`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: CPU Profiling
```python
import cProfile
import pstats
from pstats import SortKey
from typing import Callable
from functools import wraps
def profile_function(output_file: str = None):
"""
Decorator to profile function execution.
Args:
output_file: Optional file to save profile data
"""
def decorator(func: Callable) -> Callable:
@wraps(func)
def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
profiler = cProfile.Profile()
profiler.enable()
try:
result = func(*args, **kwargs)

# Print stats
stats = pstats.Stats(profiler)
stats.sort_stats(SortKey.CUMULATIVE)

stats.print_stats(20)
print("\n=== Top 20 by call count ===")
stats.sort_stats(SortKey.CALLS)
stats.print_stats(20)
```
## Line-by-Line Profiling
```python
from line_profiler import LineProfiler
def profile_lines(func: Callable) -> Callable:

Decorator for line-by-line profiling.
Usage:
@profile_lines

def db_query():
return db.query(User).filter(User.status == "active").all()
test_performance(db_query, max_duration_ms=50.0, iterations=100)
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Using print() for timing
start = time.time()
result = expensive_function()
print(f"Took {time.time() - start}s") # Not precise!
# ✅ Better: Use proper profiling
@profile_function()
def expensive_function():
...
# ❌ Single measurement
time = timeit.timeit(func, number=1) # Not reliable!
# ✅ Better: Multiple iterations
times = [timeit.timeit(func, number=1) for _ in range(100)]
avg_time = mean(times)
# ❌ Not profiling before optimizing
# Just guessing where the bottleneck is
# ✅ Better: Profile first, then optimize
@profile_function()
def identify_bottleneck():
...
# ❌ Profiling in production without limits
profiler.enable() # Runs forever!
# ✅ Better: Time-limited profiling
import signal
profiler.enable()
signal.alarm(60) # Stop after 60 seconds
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Profile before optimizing (measure, don't guess)
- ✅ Use appropriate profiling tool (cProfile, line_profiler)
- ✅ Profile memory usage for memory-intensive code
- ✅ Use async profiling for async code
- ✅ Benchmark different implementations
- ✅ Run multiple iterations for reliability
- ✅ Track performance over time
- ✅ Set performance budgets in tests
- ✅ Profile in realistic conditions
- ✅ Focus on hot paths first
- ✅ Document performance characteristics
- ✅ Use sampling for production profiling
## Auto-Apply
When profiling performance:
1. Use cProfile for CPU profiling
2. Use line_profiler for line-by-line analysis
3. Use memory_profiler for memory tracking
4. Profile async code with AsyncProfiler
5. Benchmark alternatives with Benchmark class
6. Add performance tests with time limits
7. Focus on hot paths identified by profiling

name: pii-redaction
description: Automatically applies when logging sensitive data. Ensures PII (phone numbers, emails, IDs, payment data) is redacted in all logs and outputs for compliance.
---
# PII Redaction Enforcer
When you are writing code that logs or outputs:
- Phone numbers (mobile, landline)
- Email addresses
- User IDs / Subscriber IDs
- Payment tokens / Credit card numbers
- Social Security Numbers / Tax IDs
- Physical addresses
- Names (in sensitive contexts)
- IP addresses (in some jurisdictions)
- Any other personally identifiable information
**Always redact PII in logs, error messages, and debug output.**
## ✅ Correct Pattern
```python
import logging
import re
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
def redact_pii(value: str, show_last: int = 4) -> str:
"""
Redact PII showing only last N characters.
Args:
value: String to redact
show_last: Number of characters to show (default: 4)
Returns:
Redacted string (e.g., "***5678")
"""
if not value or len(value) <= show_last:
return "***"
return f"***{value[-show_last:]}"
def redact_email(email: str) -> str:
"""
Redact email preserving domain.
Args:
email: Email address to redact
Returns:
Redacted email (e.g., "u***r@example.com")
"""
if not email or '@' not in email:
return "***"
local, domain = email.split('@', 1)
if len(local) <= 2:
return f"***@{domain}"
return f"{local[0]}***{local[-1]}@{domain}"
# Usage in logging
logger.info(f"Processing user | subscriber_id={redact_pii(subscriber_id)}")
logger.info(f"Payment received | token={redact_pii(payment_token)} | user={redact_email(email)}")
logger.info(f"Order created | phone={redact_pii(phone_number)}")
```
**Output:**
```
Processing user | subscriber_id=***5678
Payment received | token=***2344 | user=u***r@example.com
Order created | phone=***1234
```
## ❌ Incorrect Pattern (PII Leak)
```python
# ❌ Full PII exposed
logger.info(f"Processing subscriber_id: {subscriber_id}")
logger.info(f"User email: {email}")
logger.info(f"Phone: {phone_number}")
# ❌ PII in error messages
raise ValueError(f"Invalid subscriber ID: {subscriber_id}")
# ❌ PII in API responses (should only redact in logs)
return {"error": f"User {email} not found"} # OK in response, but log should redact
# ❌ Insufficient redaction
logger.info(f"Phone: {phone_number[:3]}****") # Shows area code - still PII!
```
## Redaction Helper Functions
```python
import re
from typing import Optional
class PIIRedactor:
"""Helper class for consistent PII redaction."""
@staticmethod
def phone(phone: str, show_last: int = 4) -> str:
"""Redact phone number."""
digits = re.sub(r'\D', '', phone)
if len(digits) <= show_last:
return "***"
return f"***{digits[-show_last:]}"
@staticmethod
def email(email: str) -> str:
"""Redact email preserving domain."""
if not email or '@' not in email:
return "***"
local, domain = email.split('@', 1)
if len(local) <= 2:
return f"***@{domain}"
return f"{local[0]}***{local[-1]}@{domain}"
@staticmethod
def card_number(card: str, show_last: int = 4) -> str:
"""Redact credit card number."""
digits = re.sub(r'\D', '', card)
if len(digits) <= show_last:
return "***"
return f"***{digits[-show_last:]}"
@staticmethod
def ssn(ssn: str) -> str:
"""Redact SSN completely."""
return "***-**-****"
@staticmethod
def address(address: str) -> str:
"""Redact street address, keep city/state."""
# Example: "123 Main St, Boston, MA" -> "*** Main St, Boston, MA"
parts = address.split(',')
if parts:
street = parts[0]
# Redact house number but keep street name
street_redacted = re.sub(r'^\d+', '***', street)
parts[0] = street_redacted
return ','.join(parts)
@staticmethod
def generic(value: str, show_last: int = 4) -> str:
"""Generic redaction for any string."""
if not value or len(value) <= show_last:
return "***"
return f"***{value[-show_last:]}"
# Usage
redactor = PIIRedactor()
logger.info(f"User phone: {redactor.phone('555-123-4567')}")
logger.info(f"User email: {redactor.email('john.doe@example.com')}")
logger.info(f"Card: {redactor.card_number('4111-1111-1111-1111')}")
```
## When to Redact
**Always redact in:**
- ✅ Log statements (`logger.info`, `logger.debug`, `logger.error`)
- ✅ Audit logs
- ✅ Error messages (logs)
- ✅ Monitoring/observability data (OTEL, metrics)
- ✅ Debug output
- ✅ Stack traces (if they contain PII)
**Don't redact in:**
- ❌ Actual API calls (need full data)
- ❌ Database queries (need full data)
- ❌ Function parameters (internal use)
- ❌ Return values to authorized clients
- ❌ Encrypted storage
- ❌ Secure internal processing
**Context matters:**
```python
# ❌ Bad: Redacting in business logic
def send_email(email: str):
send_to(redact_email(email)) # Wrong! Need real email to send!
# ✅ Good: Redacting in logs
def send_email(email: str):
logger.info(f"Sending email to {redact_email(email)}") # Log: redacted
send_to(email) # Actual operation: full email
```
## Structured Logging with Redaction
```python
import logging
import structlog
# Configure structlog with redaction
def redact_processor(logger, method_name, event_dict):
"""Processor to redact PII fields."""
pii_fields = ['email', 'phone', 'ssn', 'card_number', 'subscriber_id']
for field in pii_fields:
if field in event_dict:
if field == 'email':
event_dict[field] = PIIRedactor.email(event_dict[field])
else:
event_dict[field] = PIIRedactor.generic(event_dict[field])
return event_dict
structlog.configure(
processors=[
redact_processor,
structlog.processors.JSONRenderer()
]
)
logger = structlog.get_logger()
# Usage - automatic redaction
logger.info("user_action", email="user@example.com", phone="555-1234")
# Output: {"event": "user_action", "email": "u***r@example.com", "phone": "***1234"}
```
## Compliance Considerations
**GDPR (EU):**
- Personal data must be protected
- Logs are considered data processing
- Must have legal basis for logging PII
- Right to be forgotten applies to logs
**CCPA (California):**
- Consumer personal information must be protected
- Includes identifiers, browsing history, biometric data
**PCI-DSS (Payment Cards):**
- Never log full card numbers (PAN)
- Never log CVV/CVV2
- Card holder name is sensitive too
- Mask PAN when displayed (show last 4 only)
**HIPAA (Healthcare):**
- PHI (Protected Health Information) must be secured
- Includes names, addresses, dates, phone numbers
- Medical record numbers, device identifiers
```python
# PCI-DSS compliant logging
def process_payment(card_number: str, cvv: str, amount: Decimal):
"""
Process payment transaction.
Security Note:
PCI-DSS compliant. Never logs full card number or CVV.
"""
# ✅ Redact card number in logs
logger.info(
f"Processing payment | "
f"card={redact_pii(card_number, show_last=4)} | "
f"amount={amount}"
# ✅ NEVER log CVV
)
# Process with full data
result = payment_gateway.charge(card_number, cvv, amount)
# ✅ Redact in audit log
logger.info(
f"AUDIT: Payment processed | "
f"card={redact_pii(card_number, show_last=4)} | "
f"amount={amount} | "
f"status={result.status}"
)
return result
```
## Testing Redaction
```python
import pytest
def test_redact_phone():
"""Test phone redaction."""
assert redact_pii("5551234567") == "***4567"
assert redact_pii("555-123-4567") == "***4567"
def test_redact_email():
"""Test email redaction."""
assert redact_email("user@example.com") == "u***r@example.com"
assert redact_email("a@example.com") == "***@example.com"
def test_redact_empty():
"""Test empty string handling."""
assert redact_pii("") == "***"
assert redact_pii(None) == "***"
def test_log_redaction(caplog):
"""Test that logs contain redacted PII."""
with caplog.at_level(logging.INFO):
user_id = "user_12345678"
logger.info(f"Processing user={redact_pii(user_id)}")
assert "***5678" in caplog.text
assert "user_12345678" not in caplog.text
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Not redacting at all
logger.info(f"User {user_id} logged in from {ip_address}")
# ❌ Inconsistent redaction
logger.info(f"User: ***{user_id[-4:]}") # Different format each time
logger.debug(f"User: {user_id[:4]}****")
# ❌ Insufficient redaction
logger.info(f"Email: {email[0]}****") # Just first letter isn't enough
# ❌ Redacting too much (lost debugability)
logger.info("User logged in") # No identifier at all - can't debug!
# ✅ Better: Redact but keep debugability
logger.info(f"User logged in | user_id={redact_pii(user_id)}")
# ❌ Forgetting error messages
try:
process_user(email)
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"Failed for {email}: {e}") # PII in error log!
# ✅ Better
try:
process_user(email)
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"Failed for {redact_email(email)}: {e}")
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Create consistent redaction helper functions
- ✅ Redact all PII in logs automatically
- ✅ Show last 4 characters for debugging
- ✅ Preserve enough info for support/debugging
- ✅ Use structured logging with auto-redaction
- ✅ Document PII handling in Security Notes
- ✅ Test that redaction works correctly
- ✅ Train team on PII identification
- ✅ Regular audit of logs for PII leaks
- ✅ Consider legal requirements (GDPR, CCPA, PCI-DSS)
## Auto-Apply
When you see logging of PII, automatically:
1. Wrap with appropriate redaction function
2. Show last 4 characters for debugging
3. Add Security Note to docstring if handling PII
4. Use consistent redaction format
5. Test that PII is not in logs

# Prompt Engineering Patterns
When building prompts for LLM applications, follow these patterns for reliable, secure, and effective prompt engineering.
**Trigger Keywords**: prompt, prompt engineering, prompt template, few-shot, system prompt, user prompt, prompt injection, context window, instruction, prompt design, LLM instruction
**Agent Integration**: Used by `ml-system-architect`, `llm-app-engineer`, `agent-orchestrator-engineer`, `rag-architect`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Structured Prompt Templates
```python
from typing import List, Dict, Optional
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from string import Template
class PromptTemplate(BaseModel):
"""Structured prompt template with validation."""
system: str
template: str
few_shot_examples: List[Dict[str, str]] = Field(default_factory=list)
max_tokens: int = 1024
temperature: float = 1.0
def format(self, **kwargs) -> str:
"""
Format prompt with variables.
Args:
**kwargs: Template variables
Returns:
Formatted prompt string
Raises:
ValueError: If required variables missing
"""
# Validate required variables
template = Template(self.template)
try:
return template.safe_substitute(**kwargs)
except KeyError as e:
raise ValueError(f"Missing required variable: {e}")
def build_messages(self, **kwargs) -> List[Dict[str, str]]:
"""
Build messages array for LLM API.
Returns:
List of message dicts with role and content
"""
messages = []
# Add system message
if self.system:
messages.append({
"role": "system",
"content": self.system
})
# Add few-shot examples
for example in self.few_shot_examples:
messages.append({
"role": "user",
"content": example["user"]
})
messages.append({
"role": "assistant",
"content": example["assistant"]
})
# Add user message
messages.append({
"role": "user",
"content": self.format(**kwargs)
})

Document:
$document
Summary:""",

## Few-Shot Learning
```python

"If a store has 15 apples and sells 3/5 of them, how many are left?"
)
# Result includes reasoning:
# Step 1: Calculate 3/5 of 15 = 9 apples sold
# Step 2: Subtract: 15 - 9 = 6 apples remaining
# Answer: 6 apples
```
## Prompt Injection Prevention
```python

## Prompt Version Control
```python

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python

# ✅ Better: Use structured template
prompt_template = PromptTemplate(

# ❌ Direct user input in prompt (injection risk!)
def chat(user_input: str) -> str:

response = llm.complete(truncated)
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use structured prompt templates with validation
- ✅ Sanitize all user input to prevent injection
- ✅ Wrap user content with clear boundaries (XML tags)
- ✅ Include few-shot examples for complex tasks
- ✅ Use chain-of-thought for reasoning tasks
- ✅ Version control prompts with performance metrics
- ✅ Manage context window size proactively
- ✅ Separate system, user, and assistant roles clearly
- ✅ Test prompts with adversarial inputs
- ✅ Document prompt purpose and expected behavior
- ✅ Use appropriate temperature (0 for deterministic, 1 for creative)
- ✅ Set max_tokens to prevent runaway generation
## Auto-Apply
When building prompts:
1. Create PromptTemplate class with system and template fields
2. Sanitize user input with PromptSanitizer
3. Wrap user content with XML-style boundaries
4. Include few-shot examples for non-trivial tasks
5. Manage context window with truncation
6. Version control prompts with descriptions
7. Test for injection attempts

# Pydantic Model Pattern Enforcer
When creating data models for API responses, validation, or configuration, follow Pydantic best practices.
## ✅ Correct Pattern
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, field_validator, model_validator
from typing import Optional, List
from datetime import datetime
class User(BaseModel):
"""User model with validation."""
id: str = Field(..., description="User unique identifier")
email: str = Field(..., description="User email address")
name: str = Field(..., min_length=1, max_length=100)
age: Optional[int] = Field(None, ge=0, le=150)
created_at: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.now)
tags: List[str] = Field(default_factory=list)
@field_validator('email')
@classmethod
def validate_email(cls, v: str) -> str:
"""Validate email format."""
if '@' not in v:
raise ValueError('Invalid email format')
return v.lower()
@field_validator('name')
@classmethod
def validate_name(cls, v: str) -> str:
"""Validate and clean name."""
return v.strip()
@model_validator(mode='after')
def validate_model(self) -> 'User':
"""Cross-field validation."""
if self.age and self.age < 13:
if '@' in self.email and not self.email.endswith('@parent.com'):
raise ValueError('Users under 13 must use parent email')
return self
class Config:
"""Pydantic configuration."""
json_schema_extra = {
"example": {
"id": "usr_123",
"email": "user@example.com",
"name": "John Doe",
"age": 30,
"tags": ["premium", "verified"]
}
}
```
## Field Definitions
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, HttpUrl, EmailStr
from typing import Annotated
from decimal import Decimal
class Product(BaseModel):
"""Product with comprehensive field validation."""
# Required field
name: str = Field(..., min_length=1, max_length=200)
# Optional with default
description: str = Field("", max_length=1000)
# Numeric constraints
price: Decimal = Field(..., ge=0, decimal_places=2)
quantity: int = Field(0, ge=0)
# String patterns
sku: str = Field(..., pattern=r'^[A-Z0-9-]+$')
# URL validation
image_url: Optional[HttpUrl] = None
# Email validation (requires email-validator package)
contact_email: Optional[EmailStr] = None
# Annotated types
weight: Annotated[float, Field(gt=0, description="Weight in kg")]
# Enum field
status: Literal["active", "inactive", "discontinued"] = "active"
```
## Field Validators
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, field_validator
import re
class PhoneContact(BaseModel):
phone: str
country_code: str = "US"
@field_validator('phone')
@classmethod
def validate_phone(cls, v: str) -> str:
"""Validate and normalize phone number."""
# Remove non-digits
digits = re.sub(r'\D', '', v)
if len(digits) != 10:
raise ValueError('Phone must be 10 digits')
return digits
@field_validator('country_code')
@classmethod
def validate_country(cls, v: str) -> str:
"""Validate country code."""
allowed = ['US', 'CA', 'UK']
if v not in allowed:
raise ValueError(f'Country must be one of {allowed}')
return v
```
## Model Validators
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, model_validator
from datetime import datetime
class Booking(BaseModel):
start_date: datetime
end_date: datetime
guests: int
@model_validator(mode='after')
def validate_dates(self) -> 'Booking':
"""Validate date range."""
if self.end_date <= self.start_date:
raise ValueError('end_date must be after start_date')
duration = (self.end_date - self.start_date).days
if duration > 30:
raise ValueError('Booking cannot exceed 30 days')
return self
@model_validator(mode='after')
def validate_capacity(self) -> 'Booking':
"""Validate guest count."""
if self.guests < 1:
raise ValueError('At least 1 guest required')
if self.guests > 10:
raise ValueError('Maximum 10 guests allowed')
return self
```
## Nested Models
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import List
class Address(BaseModel):
"""Address component."""
street: str
city: str
state: str
zip_code: str
class Customer(BaseModel):
"""Customer with nested address."""
name: str
email: str
billing_address: Address
shipping_address: Optional[Address] = None
orders: List['Order'] = []
class Order(BaseModel):
"""Order model."""
id: str
total: Decimal
items: List['OrderItem']
class OrderItem(BaseModel):
"""Order item."""
product_id: str
quantity: int
price: Decimal
# Update forward references
Customer.model_rebuild()
```
## Model Configuration
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, ConfigDict
class StrictModel(BaseModel):
"""Model with strict validation."""
model_config = ConfigDict(
# Validation settings
str_strip_whitespace=True, # Strip whitespace from strings
validate_assignment=True, # Validate on field assignment
validate_default=True, # Validate default values
strict=True, # Strict type checking
# Serialization settings
use_enum_values=True, # Serialize enums as values
populate_by_name=True, # Allow field population by alias
# Extra fields
extra='forbid', # Forbid extra fields (default: 'ignore')
# JSON schema
json_schema_extra={
"example": {...}
}
)
```
## Computed Fields
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, computed_field
class Rectangle(BaseModel):
width: float
height: float
@computed_field
@property
def area(self) -> float:
"""Computed area."""
return self.width * self.height
@computed_field
@property
def perimeter(self) -> float:
"""Computed perimeter."""
return 2 * (self.width + self.height)
# Usage
rect = Rectangle(width=10, height=5)
print(rect.area) # 50.0
print(rect.perimeter) # 30.0
print(rect.model_dump()) # Includes computed fields
```
## JSON Schema
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel
class APIResponse(BaseModel):
"""API response model."""
data: dict
message: str
status: int = 200
# Generate JSON schema
schema = APIResponse.model_json_schema()
# Use in FastAPI (automatic)
@app.post("/api/endpoint")
async def endpoint(data: APIResponse) -> APIResponse:
return data
# Custom schema
class CustomModel(BaseModel):
name: str
model_config = {
"json_schema_extra": {
"examples": [
{"name": "Example 1"},
{"name": "Example 2"}
]
}
}
```
## Serialization
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, field_serializer
from datetime import datetime
class Event(BaseModel):
name: str
timestamp: datetime
metadata: dict
@field_serializer('timestamp')
def serialize_timestamp(self, value: datetime) -> str:
"""Serialize timestamp as ISO string."""
return value.isoformat()
def model_dump_json(self, **kwargs) -> str:
"""Serialize to JSON string."""
return super().model_dump_json(**kwargs)
# Usage
event = Event(name="test", timestamp=datetime.now(), metadata={})
json_str = event.model_dump_json() # JSON string
dict_data = event.model_dump() # Python dict
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Using dict instead of model
def process_user(user: dict): # No validation!
pass
# ✅ Better: use Pydantic model
def process_user(user: User): # Validated!
pass
# ❌ Manual validation
def validate_email(email: str):
if '@' not in email:
raise ValueError("Invalid email")
# ✅ Better: use Pydantic validator
class User(BaseModel):
email: EmailStr # Built-in validation
# ❌ Mutable defaults
class Config(BaseModel):
tags: List[str] = [] # ❌ Shared across instances!
# ✅ Better: use Field with default_factory
class Config(BaseModel):
tags: List[str] = Field(default_factory=list)
# ❌ Not using Optional
class User(BaseModel):
middle_name: str # Required, but should be optional!
# ✅ Better
class User(BaseModel):
middle_name: Optional[str] = None
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use `BaseModel` for all data models
- ✅ Add field descriptions with `Field(..., description="...")`
- ✅ Use appropriate validators for business logic
- ✅ Use `Optional` for nullable fields
- ✅ Use `Field(default_factory=list)` for mutable defaults
- ✅ Add JSON schema examples
- ✅ Use computed fields for derived data
- ✅ Configure strict validation when needed
- ✅ Document models with docstrings
- ✅ Use nested models for complex structures
## Auto-Apply
When creating models:
1. Use `BaseModel` as base class
2. Add type hints for all fields
3. Use `Field()` for constraints and descriptions
4. Add validators for business logic
5. Add JSON schema examples
6. Use nested models for complex data

# Pytest Testing Pattern Enforcer
When writing tests, follow these established pytest patterns and best practices.
## ✅ Basic Test Pattern
```python
import pytest
from unittest.mock import Mock, patch, MagicMock
def test_function_name_success():
"""Test successful operation."""
# Arrange
input_data = "test input"
# Act
result = function_under_test(input_data)
# Assert
assert result == expected_output
assert result.status == "success"
def test_function_name_error_case():
"""Test error handling."""
# Arrange
invalid_input = ""
# Act & Assert
with pytest.raises(ValueError, match="Input cannot be empty"):
function_under_test(invalid_input)
```
## ✅ Async Test Pattern
```python
import pytest
from unittest.mock import AsyncMock, patch
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_async_function():
"""Test async function behavior."""
# Arrange
mock_data = {"id": "123", "name": "Test"}
# Act
result = await async_function()
# Assert
assert result == expected
assert result["id"] == "123"
@pytest.mark.asyncio
@patch('module.async_dependency')
async def test_with_async_mock(mock_dependency):
"""Test with mocked async dependency."""
# Arrange
mock_dependency.return_value = AsyncMock(return_value={"status": "ok"})
# Act
result = await function_calling_dependency()
# Assert
assert result["status"] == "ok"
mock_dependency.assert_called_once()
```
## Fixtures
```python
import pytest
# Function-scoped fixture (default)
@pytest.fixture
def user_data():
"""Provide test user data."""
return {
"id": "user_123",
"email": "test@example.com",
"name": "Test User"
}
# Session-scoped fixture (created once per test session)
@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def database_connection():
"""Provide database connection for all tests."""
db = Database.connect("test_db")
yield db
db.close()
# Module-scoped fixture
@pytest.fixture(scope="module")
def api_client():
"""Provide API client for module tests."""
client = APIClient(base_url="http://test.local")
yield client
client.close()
# Fixture with cleanup (teardown)
@pytest.fixture
def temp_file(tmp_path):
"""Create temporary file for testing."""
file_path = tmp_path / "test_file.txt"
file_path.write_text("test content")
yield file_path
# Cleanup (runs after test)
if file_path.exists():
file_path.unlink()
# Usage in tests
def test_user_creation(user_data):
"""Test using fixture."""
user = create_user(user_data)
assert user.id == user_data["id"]
```
## Parametrize for Multiple Test Cases
```python
import pytest
@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [
("hello", "HELLO"),
("world", "WORLD"),
("", ""),
("123", "123"),
])
def test_uppercase(input, expected):
"""Test uppercase conversion with multiple inputs."""
assert uppercase(input) == expected
@pytest.mark.parametrize("email", [
"user@example.com",
"test.user@domain.co.uk",
"user+tag@example.com",
])
def test_valid_emails(email):
"""Test valid email formats."""
assert is_valid_email(email) is True
@pytest.mark.parametrize("email", [
"invalid",
"@example.com",
"user@",
"user@.com",
])
def test_invalid_emails(email):
"""Test invalid email formats."""
assert is_valid_email(email) is False
# Multiple parameters
@pytest.mark.parametrize("a,b,expected", [
(1, 2, 3),
(0, 0, 0),
(-1, 1, 0),
(100, 200, 300),
])
def test_addition(a, b, expected):
"""Test addition with various inputs."""
assert add(a, b) == expected
# Named test cases
@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [
pytest.param("valid@email.com", True, id="valid_email"),
pytest.param("invalid", False, id="invalid_email"),
pytest.param("", False, id="empty_string"),
])
def test_email_validation(input, expected):
"""Test email validation."""
assert is_valid_email(input) == expected
```
## Mocking with unittest.mock
```python
from unittest.mock import Mock, MagicMock, patch, call
def test_with_mock():
"""Test with Mock object."""
mock_service = Mock()
mock_service.get_data.return_value = {"status": "success"}
result = process_data(mock_service)
assert result["status"] == "success"
mock_service.get_data.assert_called_once()
def test_mock_multiple_calls():
"""Test multiple calls to mock."""
mock = Mock()
mock.side_effect = [1, 2, 3] # Different return for each call
assert mock() == 1
assert mock() == 2
assert mock() == 3
@patch('module.external_api_call')
def test_with_patch(mock_api):
"""Test with patched external call."""
# Arrange
mock_api.return_value = {"data": "test"}
# Act
result = function_that_calls_api()
# Assert
assert result["data"] == "test"
mock_api.assert_called_once_with(expected_param)
def test_mock_http_request():
"""Test HTTP request with mock response."""
with patch('httpx.get') as mock_get:
# Create mock response
mock_response = Mock()
mock_response.status_code = 200
mock_response.json.return_value = {"key": "value"}
mock_response.raise_for_status = Mock()
mock_get.return_value = mock_response
# Test
result = fetch_data_from_api()
assert result["key"] == "value"
mock_get.assert_called_once()
def test_verify_call_arguments():
"""Test that mock was called with specific arguments."""
mock = Mock()
function_with_mock(mock, param1="test", param2=123)
# Verify call
mock.method.assert_called_with("test", 123)
# Verify any call in call history
mock.method.assert_any_call("test", 123)
# Verify call count
assert mock.method.call_count == 1
# Verify all calls
mock.method.assert_has_calls([
call("first"),
call("second"),
])
```
## Pytest Marks
```python
import pytest
# Skip test
@pytest.mark.skip(reason="Not implemented yet")
def test_future_feature():
"""Test to be implemented."""
pass
# Skip conditionally
@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.version_info < (3, 10), reason="Requires Python 3.10+")
def test_python310_feature():
"""Test Python 3.10+ feature."""
pass
# Expected failure
@pytest.mark.xfail(reason="Known bug in external library")
def test_with_known_bug():
"""Test that currently fails due to known bug."""
assert buggy_function() == expected
# Custom marks
@pytest.mark.slow
def test_slow_operation():
"""Test that takes a long time."""
pass
@pytest.mark.integration
def test_database_integration():
"""Integration test with database."""
pass
# Run with: pytest -m "not slow" to skip slow tests
# Run with: pytest -m integration to run only integration tests
```
## Testing Exceptions
```python
import pytest
def test_exception_raised():
"""Test that exception is raised."""
with pytest.raises(ValueError):
function_that_raises()
def test_exception_message():
"""Test exception message."""
with pytest.raises(ValueError, match="Invalid input"):
function_that_raises("invalid")
def test_exception_with_context():
"""Test exception with context checking."""
with pytest.raises(APIError) as exc_info:
call_failing_api()
# Check exception details
assert exc_info.value.status_code == 404
assert "not found" in str(exc_info.value)
```
## Testing with Database (Fixtures)
```python
import pytest
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker
@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def db_engine():
"""Create test database engine."""
engine = create_engine("sqlite:///:memory:")
Base.metadata.create_all(engine)
yield engine
engine.dispose()
@pytest.fixture
def db_session(db_engine):
"""Create database session for test."""
Session = sessionmaker(bind=db_engine)
session = Session()
yield session
session.rollback()
session.close()
def test_create_user(db_session):
"""Test user creation in database."""
user = User(name="Test User", email="test@example.com")
db_session.add(user)
db_session.commit()
# Verify
found_user = db_session.query(User).filter_by(email="test@example.com").first()
assert found_user is not None
assert found_user.name == "Test User"
```
## Testing File Operations
```python
import pytest
def test_file_read(tmp_path):
"""Test file reading with temporary file."""
# Create temporary file
test_file = tmp_path / "test.txt"
test_file.write_text("test content")
# Test
result = read_file(test_file)
assert result == "test content"
def test_file_write(tmp_path):
"""Test file writing."""
output_file = tmp_path / "output.txt"
write_file(output_file, "new content")
assert output_file.exists()
assert output_file.read_text() == "new content"
```
## Test Organization
```python
# tests/test_user_service.py
class TestUserService:
"""Tests for UserService."""
def test_create_user_success(self):
"""Test successful user creation."""
service = UserService()
user = service.create_user("test@example.com")
assert user.email == "test@example.com"
def test_create_user_duplicate_email(self):
"""Test error on duplicate email."""
service = UserService()
service.create_user("test@example.com")
with pytest.raises(DuplicateEmailError):
service.create_user("test@example.com")
def test_get_user_found(self):
"""Test getting existing user."""
service = UserService()
created = service.create_user("test@example.com")
found = service.get_user(created.id)
assert found.id == created.id
def test_get_user_not_found(self):
"""Test getting non-existent user."""
service = UserService()
with pytest.raises(UserNotFoundError):
service.get_user("nonexistent_id")
```
## Coverage
```python
# Run tests with coverage
# pytest --cov=src --cov-report=html
# Add to pyproject.toml
[tool.pytest.ini_options]
testpaths = ["tests"]
python_files = ["test_*.py"]
python_functions = ["test_*"]
addopts = "--cov=src --cov-report=term-missing"
# Minimum coverage requirement
[tool.coverage.report]
fail_under = 80
exclude_lines = [
"pragma: no cover",
"def __repr__",
"raise AssertionError",
"raise NotImplementedError",
"if __name__ == .__main__.:",
]
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No test docstring
def test_something():
assert True
# ❌ Testing multiple things in one test
def test_user():
# Too much in one test - split into multiple tests
user = create_user()
update_user(user)
delete_user(user)
# ❌ No arrange/act/assert structure
def test_messy():
result = function()
x = 5
assert result > x
y = calculate()
# ❌ Mutable fixture default
@pytest.fixture
def config():
return {"key": "value"} # Shared dict - mutations affect other tests!
# ✅ Better
@pytest.fixture
def config():
return {"key": "value"}.copy()
# ❌ Not using parametrize
def test_email1():
assert is_valid("test@example.com")
def test_email2():
assert is_valid("user@domain.com")
# ✅ Better: Use parametrize
@pytest.mark.parametrize("email", ["test@example.com", "user@domain.com"])
def test_valid_email(email):
assert is_valid(email)
# ❌ Not cleaning up resources
def test_file():
file = open("test.txt", "w")
file.write("test")
# Missing: file.close()
# ✅ Better: Use context manager or fixture
def test_file():
with open("test.txt", "w") as file:
file.write("test")
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use descriptive test names: `test_function_scenario_expectation`
- ✅ Add docstrings to all test functions
- ✅ Follow Arrange/Act/Assert pattern
- ✅ Use fixtures for setup and teardown
- ✅ Use parametrize for multiple similar test cases
- ✅ Use marks to categorize tests (slow, integration, etc.)
- ✅ Mock external dependencies (APIs, databases)
- ✅ Test both success and failure cases
- ✅ Test edge cases (empty, null, boundary values)
- ✅ One assertion focus per test (but multiple asserts OK)
- ✅ Use `tmp_path` for file operations
- ✅ Clean up resources (use fixtures with yield)
- ✅ Aim for high coverage (80%+)
- ✅ Keep tests independent (no shared state)
## Auto-Apply
When writing tests:
1. Use `@pytest.mark.asyncio` for async functions
2. Use `@patch` decorator for mocking
3. Create fixtures for common test data
4. Follow naming conventions (`test_*`)
5. Test success + error + edge cases
6. Use parametrize for multiple inputs
7. Add descriptive docstrings

## Build and Distribution
```bash
# Build package
python -m build
# This creates:

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Using setup.py instead of pyproject.toml
# setup.py is legacy, use pyproject.toml
# ❌ No version pinning in dependencies
dependencies = ["fastapi"] # Which version?
# ✅ Better: Pin compatible versions
dependencies = ["fastapi>=0.109.0,<1.0.0"]
# ❌ Flat package structure
mypackage.py # Single file, hard to scale
# ✅ Better: Proper package structure
src/mypackage/__init__.py
# ❌ No py.typed marker
# Users can't benefit from type hints
# ✅ Better: Include py.typed
src/mypackage/py.typed
# ❌ Not specifying python_requires
# Package might be installed on incompatible Python
# ✅ Better: Specify Python version
requires-python = ">=3.11"
# ❌ No optional dependencies
dependencies = ["pytest", "sphinx"] # Forces install!
# ✅ Better: Use optional-dependencies
[project.optional-dependencies]
dev = ["pytest"]
docs = ["sphinx"]
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use pyproject.toml for configuration
- ✅ Use src/ layout for packages
- ✅ Include py.typed for type hints
- ✅ Specify Python version requirement
- ✅ Pin dependency versions
- ✅ Use optional-dependencies for extras
- ✅ Include README, LICENSE, CHANGELOG
- ✅ Define entry points for CLI tools
- ✅ Configure tools in pyproject.toml
- ✅ Test package installation locally
- ✅ Use build and twine for publishing
- ✅ Automate publishing with CI/CD
## Auto-Apply
When creating Python packages:
1. Use pyproject.toml for all configuration
2. Use src/package_name/ layout
3. Include py.typed marker
4. Define optional-dependencies for dev/docs
5. Pin dependency versions
6. Include README and LICENSE
7. Define CLI entry points if needed
8. Configure testing and linting tools

# Query Optimization Patterns
When optimizing database queries, follow these patterns for efficient, scalable data access.
**Trigger Keywords**: query optimization, EXPLAIN, index, N+1, query performance, slow query, database performance, SELECT, JOIN, query plan
**Agent Integration**: Used by `backend-architect`, `database-engineer`, `performance-engineer`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: EXPLAIN Analysis
```python

"""Analyze query performance with EXPLAIN."""
def __init__(self, engine):
self.engine = engine

## Index Creation
```python
from sqlalchemy import Index, Table, Column, Integer, String, DateTime
from sqlalchemy.orm import declarative_base
Base = declarative_base()
class User(Base):
"""User model with proper indexes."""
__tablename__ = "users"
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
email = Column(String(255), nullable=False)
username = Column(String(100), nullable=False)
created_at = Column(DateTime, nullable=False)
status = Column(String(20), nullable=False)
# Single column indexes
__table_args__ = (
Index('ix_users_email', 'email', unique=True), # Unique constraint
Index('ix_users_username', 'username'),
Index('ix_users_status', 'status'),
# Composite indexes (order matters!)
Index('ix_users_status_created', 'status', 'created_at'),
# Partial index (PostgreSQL)
Index(
'ix_users_active_email',
'email',
postgresql_where=(status == 'active')
),
# Expression index
Index(
'ix_users_email_lower',
func.lower(email),
postgresql_using='btree'
),
)
# When to create indexes:
# ✅ Columns in WHERE clauses
# ✅ Columns in JOIN conditions
# ✅ Columns in ORDER BY
# ✅ Foreign key columns
# ✅ Columns in GROUP BY
```
## N+1 Query Prevention
```python
from sqlalchemy import select
from sqlalchemy.orm import Session, selectinload, joinedload, relationship
class Order(Base):
"""Order model."""
__tablename__ = "orders"
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey("users.id"))

# ❌ N+1 Query Problem

BAD: Causes N+1 queries.
1 query for orders + N queries for users.
"""
orders = session.execute(select(Order)).scalars().all()

# ✅ Solution 1: Eager Loading with joinedload

GOOD: Single query with JOIN.
Use for one-to-one or many-to-one relationships.
"""

# ✅ Solution 2: Eager Loading with selectinload

GOOD: Separate query with WHERE IN.
Use for one-to-many or many-to-many relationships.
"""

## Batch Loading
```python

## Query Optimization Patterns
```python
from sqlalchemy import func, and_, or_
# ✅ Use specific columns, not SELECT *
def get_user_emails_good(session: Session) -> List[str]:
"""Select only needed columns."""
stmt = select(User.email)

# ✅ Use pagination for large result sets
def get_users_paginated(
session: Session,
page: int = 1,
page_size: int = 50
) -> List[User]:
"""Paginate results."""
offset = (page - 1) * page_size
stmt = (
select(User)
.order_by(User.id)
.limit(page_size)
.offset(offset)
)
return session.execute(stmt).scalars().all()
# ✅ Use EXISTS for checking existence
def user_has_orders_exists(session: Session, user_id: int) -> bool:
"""Check if user has orders efficiently."""
stmt = select(
exists(select(Order.id).where(Order.user_id == user_id))
)
return session.execute(stmt).scalar()
# ✅ Use COUNT efficiently
def get_active_user_count(session: Session) -> int:
"""Count without loading rows."""
stmt = select(func.count()).select_from(User).where(User.status == 'active')
return session.execute(stmt).scalar()
# ✅ Use bulk operations
def bulk_update_status(
session: Session,
user_ids: List[int],
new_status: str
):
"""Bulk update in single query."""
stmt = (
update(User)
.where(User.id.in_(user_ids))

# ✅ Use window functions for rankings
def get_top_users_by_orders(session: Session) -> List[Dict]:
"""Get users ranked by order count."""

ORDER BY order_count DESC
LIMIT 100
""")
with session.connection() as conn:
result = conn.execute(stmt)
return [dict(row._mapping) for row in result]
```
## Query Performance Monitoring
```python
import time
from functools import wraps
from typing import Callable
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)

"""Get user orders with performance monitoring."""
stmt = select(Order).where(Order.user_id == user_id)
return session.execute(stmt).scalars().all()
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ SELECT *
stmt = select(User) # Loads all columns!
# ✅ Better: Select specific columns
stmt = select(User.id, User.email)
# ❌ N+1 queries
orders = session.query(Order).all()
for order in orders:
print(order.user.email) # N queries!
# ✅ Better: Eager load
orders = session.query(Order).options(joinedload(Order.user)).all()
# ❌ No pagination
users = session.query(User).all() # Could be millions!
# ✅ Better: Paginate
users = session.query(User).limit(100).offset(0).all()
# ❌ Loading full objects for COUNT
count = len(session.query(User).all()) # Loads all rows!
# ✅ Better: Use COUNT
count = session.query(func.count(User.id)).scalar()
# ❌ No indexes on WHERE columns
# Query: SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = ?
# No index on email column!
# ✅ Better: Create index
Index('ix_users_email', 'email')
# ❌ Using OR instead of IN
stmt = select(User).where(
or_(User.id == 1, User.id == 2, User.id == 3)
)
# ✅ Better: Use IN
stmt = select(User).where(User.id.in_([1, 2, 3]))
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Run EXPLAIN on complex queries
- ✅ Create indexes on foreign keys
- ✅ Create indexes on WHERE/JOIN columns
- ✅ Use eager loading to prevent N+1
- ✅ Select only needed columns
- ✅ Paginate large result sets
- ✅ Use EXISTS for existence checks
- ✅ Use COUNT without loading rows
- ✅ Use bulk operations for updates
- ✅ Monitor slow queries
- ✅ Use connection pooling
- ✅ Cache frequent queries
## Auto-Apply
When writing database queries:
1. Use EXPLAIN to analyze query plans
2. Create indexes on filtered/joined columns
3. Use joinedload/selectinload to prevent N+1
4. Select specific columns, not SELECT *
5. Implement pagination for large results
6. Monitor query performance
7. Use bulk operations when possible

**Agent Integration**: Used by `ml-system-architect`, `rag-architect`, `llm-app-engineer`, `performance-and-cost-engineer-llm`
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Document Chunking
```python
from typing import List
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Fixed-size chunking ignoring semantics
chunks = [text[i:i+512] for i in range(0, len(text), 512)] # Breaks mid-sentence!
# ✅ Better: Semantic chunking
chunks = chunker.chunk(text, document_id)
# ❌ No overlap between chunks
chunks = split_by_size(text, 512) # Context loss!
# ✅ Better: Add overlap
chunks = semantic_chunker.chunk(text, overlap=50)
# ❌ Embed and search without reranking
results = vector_store.search(query_embedding) # Approximate!
# ✅ Better: Rerank top results
initial = vector_store.search(query_embedding, top_k=20)
results = reranker.rerank(query, initial, top_k=5)
# ❌ No metadata for filtering
chunk = Chunk(content=text) # Can't filter!
# ✅ Better: Rich metadata
chunk = Chunk(
content=text,
metadata={
"source": "docs",
"date": "2025-01-15",
"category": "technical"
}
)
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use semantic chunking (paragraphs/sections, not arbitrary splits)
- ✅ Add overlap between chunks (50-100 tokens)
- ✅ Include rich metadata for filtering
- ✅ Implement reranking for top results
- ✅ Use query rewriting/expansion
- ✅ Respect token limits when building context
- ✅ Track retrieval metrics (precision, recall)
- ✅ Embed chunks asynchronously in batches
- ✅ Cache embeddings for frequently accessed documents
- ✅ Test different chunk sizes for your use case
## Auto-Apply
When building RAG systems:
1. Implement semantic chunking with overlap
2. Add comprehensive metadata to chunks
3. Use async for all embedding/retrieval operations
4. Implement reranking for top results
5. Build context within token limits
6. Log retrieval quality metrics

status_code=500,
details={"error_type": type(e).__name__}
))
```
## ❌ Incorrect Pattern
```python
# ❌ Plain string
if not user_id:
return "Error: user ID is required"
# ❌ Exposing sensitive data
except httpx.HTTPStatusError as e:
return f"Error: {e.response.text}" # ❌ Leaks API response
# ❌ No request ID for tracing
return {"error": "Something went wrong"}
# ❌ Inconsistent error format
return "Error: failed" # Sometimes string
return {"message": "failed"} # Sometimes object
```
## Required Fields
**All error responses must include:**
1. **error** (string) - Human-readable error message
2. **request_id** (uuid) - For tracing/debugging
3. **timestamp** (ISO string) - When error occurred
4. **status_code** (int) - HTTP status code
**Optional but recommended:**
5. **details** (object) - Additional context (safe data only)
6. **error_code** (string) - Application-specific error code
7. **field** (string) - Which field caused the error (validation)
## Custom Exception Classes
```python
class APIError(Exception):
"""Base exception for API errors."""
def __init__(self, message: str, status_code: int = 500, details: dict = None):
self.message = message
self.status_code = status_code
self.details = details or {}
self.request_id = str(uuid.uuid4())
self.timestamp = datetime.now().isoformat()
super().__init__(self.message)
def to_dict(self) -> dict:
"""Convert to structured error response."""
return {
"error": self.message,
"status_code": self.status_code,
"request_id": self.request_id,
"timestamp": self.timestamp,
"details": self.details
}
class ValidationError(APIError):
"""Validation error."""
def __init__(self, message: str, field: str = None):
details = {"field": field} if field else {}
super().__init__(message, status_code=400, details=details)
class NotFoundError(APIError):
"""Resource not found."""
def __init__(self, resource: str, resource_id: str):
super().__init__(
f"{resource} not found",
status_code=404,
details={"resource": resource, "id": resource_id}
)
# Usage
try:
user = await get_user(user_id)
except UserNotFoundError:
raise NotFoundError("User", user_id)
```
## FastAPI Integration
```python
from fastapi import FastAPI, HTTPException, Request
from fastapi.responses import JSONResponse
app = FastAPI()
@app.exception_handler(APIError)
async def api_error_handler(request: Request, exc: APIError):
"""Global exception handler for APIError."""
return JSONResponse(
status_code=exc.status_code,
content=exc.to_dict()
)
@app.exception_handler(Exception)
async def general_exception_handler(request: Request, exc: Exception):
"""Catch-all for unexpected errors."""
error_response = create_error_response(
"Internal server error",
status_code=500,
details={"type": type(exc).__name__}
)
# Log full error but don't expose to client
logger.error(f"Unexpected error: {exc}", exc_info=True)
return JSONResponse(status_code=500, content=error_response)
```
## Security Note
**Never include in errors:**
- Raw API response text
- Stack traces (log them, don't return them)
- Internal IDs or tokens
- Database query details
- Full exception messages from external APIs
- Authentication credentials
- File paths or system information
**Safe to include:**
- User-facing error messages
- Validation field names
- Request IDs for support
- Status codes
- Generic error types
## Logging Errors
```python
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
def handle_error(error: Exception, context: dict = None) -> dict:
"""Handle error with proper logging and structured response."""
request_id = str(uuid.uuid4())
# Log with context
logger.error(
f"Error occurred | request_id={request_id} | "
f"error={type(error).__name__}",
extra=context,
exc_info=True
)
# Return safe error response
return create_error_response(
"An error occurred processing your request",
status_code=500,
details={"request_id": request_id}
)
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ Leaking internal errors
return {"error": str(exception)}
# ❌ Inconsistent format across endpoints
def endpoint1(): return "Error"
def endpoint2(): return {"error": "Error"}
# ❌ No context for debugging
return {"error": "Failed"}
# ❌ Returning 200 with error in body
return {"success": False, "error": "..."} # Should use proper status code
# ❌ Too much information
return {
"error": f"Database query failed: {full_sql_query}",
"stacktrace": traceback.format_exc()
}
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Use consistent error structure across application
- ✅ Include request_id for tracing
- ✅ Include timestamp for debugging
- ✅ Use proper HTTP status codes
- ✅ Create custom exception classes for common errors
- ✅ Add global exception handlers
- ✅ Log full error details (with context)
- ✅ Return safe, user-friendly messages
- ✅ Never expose sensitive data in errors
- ✅ Document error responses in API docs
## Auto-Apply
When you write error handling:
1. Create helper `create_error_response()`
2. Use it for all error returns
3. Include request_id and timestamp
4. Remove any sensitive data
5. Use proper status codes

description: Automatically applies when creating AI tool functions. Ensures proper schema design, input validation, error handling, context access, and comprehensive testing.

# AI Tool Design Pattern Enforcer
When creating tools for AI agents (LangChain, function calling, etc.), follow these design patterns.
## ✅ Standard Tool Pattern
```python
from langchain.tools import tool
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import Optional
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
# 1. Define input schema
class SearchInput(BaseModel):
"""Input schema for search tool."""
query: str = Field(..., description="Search query string")
max_results: int = Field(
default=10,
ge=1,
le=100,
description="Maximum number of results to return"
)
filter_type: Optional[str] = Field(
None,
description="Optional filter type (e.g., 'recent', 'popular')"
)
# 2. Implement tool function
@tool(args_schema=SearchInput)
def search_database(query: str, max_results: int = 10, filter_type: Optional[str] = None) -> str:
"""
Search database for relevant information.
Use this tool when user asks to find, search, or look up information.
Returns JSON string with search results.
Args:
query: Search query string
max_results: Maximum number of results (1-100)
filter_type: Optional filter (recent, popular)
Returns:
JSON string with results or error message
"""
request_id = str(uuid.uuid4())
try:
# Log tool invocation
logger.info(
f"TOOL_CALL: search_database | "
f"query={query[:50]} | "
f"request_id={request_id}"
)
# Validate inputs
if not query or not query.strip():
return json.dumps({
"error": "Query cannot be empty",
"request_id": request_id
})
# Execute search
results = _execute_search(query, max_results, filter_type)
# Return structured response
return json.dumps({
"results": results,
"total": len(results),
"request_id": request_id
})
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"Tool error | request_id={request_id}", exc_info=True)
return json.dumps({
"error": "Search failed",
"request_id": request_id,
"timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat()
})
# 3. Helper implementation
def _execute_search(query: str, max_results: int, filter_type: Optional[str]) -> List[dict]:
"""Internal search implementation."""
# Actual search logic
pass
```
## Tool Schema Design
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, field_validator
from typing import Literal, Optional
class EmailToolInput(BaseModel):
"""Well-designed tool input schema."""
recipient: str = Field(
...,
description="Email address of recipient (e.g., user@example.com)"
)
subject: str = Field(
...,
description="Email subject line",
min_length=1,
max_length=200
)
body: str = Field(
...,
description="Email body content",
min_length=1
)
priority: Literal["low", "normal", "high"] = Field(
default="normal",
description="Email priority level"
)
attach_invoice: bool = Field(
default=False,
description="Whether to attach invoice PDF"
)
@field_validator('recipient')
@classmethod
def validate_email(cls, v: str) -> str:
if '@' not in v:
raise ValueError('Invalid email address')
return v.lower()
class Config:
json_schema_extra = {
"example": {
"recipient": "customer@example.com",
"subject": "Order Confirmation",
"body": "Thank you for your order!",
"priority": "normal",
"attach_invoice": True
}
}
```
## Error Handling Pattern
```python
import uuid
from datetime import datetime
import json
@tool
def robust_tool(param: str) -> str:
"""Tool with comprehensive error handling."""
request_id = str(uuid.uuid4())
# Input validation
if not param:
return json.dumps({
"error": "Parameter is required",
"error_code": "INVALID_INPUT",
"request_id": request_id,
"timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat()
})
try:
# Main logic
result = process_data(param)
return json.dumps({
"success": True,
"data": result,
"request_id": request_id
})
except ValidationError as e:
return json.dumps({
"error": str(e),
"error_code": "VALIDATION_ERROR",
"request_id": request_id,
"timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat()
})
except ExternalAPIError as e:
logger.error(f"External API failed | request_id={request_id}", exc_info=True)
return json.dumps({
"error": "External service unavailable",
"error_code": "SERVICE_ERROR",
"request_id": request_id,
"timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat()
})
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"Unexpected error | request_id={request_id}", exc_info=True)
return json.dumps({
"error": "An unexpected error occurred",
"error_code": "INTERNAL_ERROR",
"request_id": request_id,
"timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat()
})
```
## Context Access Pattern
```python
from typing import Any
@tool
def context_aware_tool(query: str, context: Optional[dict] = None) -> str:
"""
Tool that uses conversation context.
Args:
query: User query
context: Optional context from agent (user_id, session_id, etc.)
Returns:
JSON string with results
"""
# Extract context safely
user_id = context.get("user_id") if context else None
session_id = context.get("session_id") if context else None
logger.info(
f"Tool called | user_id={user_id} | "
f"session_id={session_id} | query={query[:50]}"
)
# Use context in logic
if user_id:
# Personalized response
results = fetch_user_data(user_id, query)
else:
# Generic response
results = fetch_generic_data(query)
return json.dumps({"results": results})
```
## Async Tool Pattern
```python
from langchain.tools import tool
import httpx
@tool
async def async_api_tool(query: str) -> str:
"""
Async tool for external API calls.
Use async for I/O-bound operations to improve performance.
"""
request_id = str(uuid.uuid4())
try:
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
response = await client.get(
f"https://api.example.com/search",
params={"q": query},
timeout=10.0
)
response.raise_for_status()
return json.dumps({
"results": response.json(),
"request_id": request_id
})
except httpx.TimeoutException:
return json.dumps({
"error": "Request timed out",
"request_id": request_id
})
except httpx.HTTPStatusError as e:
return json.dumps({
"error": f"API error: {e.response.status_code}",
"request_id": request_id
})
```
## Testing Tools
```python
import pytest
from unittest.mock import patch, Mock
def test_search_tool_success():
"""Test successful search."""
result = search_database(query="test query", max_results=5)
data = json.loads(result)
assert "results" in data
assert "request_id" in data
assert data["total"] >= 0
def test_search_tool_empty_query():
"""Test validation error."""
result = search_database(query="", max_results=10)
data = json.loads(result)
assert "error" in data
assert data["error"] == "Query cannot be empty"
@patch('module.httpx.get')
def test_async_tool_timeout(mock_get):
"""Test timeout handling."""
mock_get.side_effect = httpx.TimeoutException("Timeout")
result = async_api_tool(query="test")
data = json.loads(result)
assert "error" in data
assert "timed out" in data["error"].lower()
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_async_tool_success():
"""Test async tool success path."""
with patch('module.httpx.AsyncClient') as mock_client:
mock_response = Mock()
mock_response.json.return_value = {"data": "test"}
mock_response.raise_for_status = Mock()
mock_client.return_value.__aenter__.return_value.get.return_value = mock_response
result = await async_api_tool("test query")
data = json.loads(result)
assert "results" in data
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No input schema
@tool
def bad_tool(param): # No type hints, no schema!
pass
# ❌ Returning plain strings
@tool
def bad_tool(param: str) -> str:
return "Error: something went wrong" # Not structured!
# ❌ No error handling
@tool
def bad_tool(param: str) -> str:
result = external_api_call(param) # What if this fails?
return result
# ❌ Exposing sensitive data
@tool
def bad_tool(user_id: str) -> str:
logger.info(f"Processing user {user_id}") # PII leak!
return json.dumps({"user_id": user_id})
# ❌ No validation
@tool
def bad_tool(email: str) -> str:
send_email(email) # What if email is invalid?
return "Sent"
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ Define Pydantic input schema with descriptions
- ✅ Add comprehensive docstring (when to use, what it returns)
- ✅ Include field descriptions in schema
- ✅ Add input validation
- ✅ Use structured JSON responses
- ✅ Include request_id in all responses
- ✅ Add proper error handling with try/except
- ✅ Log tool invocations (with PII redaction)
- ✅ Use async for I/O-bound operations
- ✅ Write comprehensive tests (success, error, edge cases)
- ✅ Add examples in schema
- ✅ Keep tools focused (single responsibility)
## Auto-Apply
When creating tools:
1. Define Pydantic input schema with Field descriptions
2. Add `@tool` decorator with args_schema
3. Write comprehensive docstring
4. Add input validation
5. Use try/except for error handling
6. Return structured JSON with request_id
7. Log invocations (redact PII)
8. Write tests for success and error cases

# Type Safety Pattern Enforcer
All Python code should include comprehensive type hints for better IDE support, documentation, and error catching. This skill enforces type safety best practices and mypy compatibility.
## ✅ Correct Pattern
```python
from decimal import Decimal
from typing import Any, Dict, List, Optional, Union, TypeVar, Generic
from collections.abc import Callable, Iterable
def process_transaction(
amount: Decimal,
user_id: str,
metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None
) -> TransactionResult:
"""Process a transaction with validation."""
if metadata is None:
metadata = {}
# Process transaction
return TransactionResult(
transaction_id="txn_123",
amount=amount,
status="completed"
)
class PaymentService:
"""Service for handling payments."""
api_key: str
base_url: str
timeout: int = 30
def __init__(self, api_key: str, base_url: str, timeout: int = 30) -> None:
"""Initialize payment service."""
self.api_key = api_key
self.base_url = base_url
self.timeout = timeout
async def fetch_user_data(user_id: str) -> UserData:
"""Fetch user data asynchronously."""
# Fetch and return user data
pass
```
## Function Type Hints
```python
# Basic function
def add(a: int, b: int) -> int:
"""Add two integers."""
return a + b
# Multiple return types
def get_user(user_id: str) -> Optional[User]:
"""Get user by ID, None if not found."""
pass
# No return value
def log_event(event: str) -> None:
"""Log an event."""
print(event)
# Variable arguments
def concatenate(*args: str) -> str:
"""Concatenate strings."""
return "".join(args)
# Keyword arguments
def create_user(**kwargs: Any) -> User:
"""Create user from keyword arguments."""
pass
# Callable type
def apply_operation(
value: int,
operation: Callable[[int], int]
) -> int:
"""Apply operation to value."""
return operation(value)
# Union types (Python 3.10+)
def process(value: int | str) -> str:
"""Process int or string."""
return str(value)
# Union types (pre-3.10)
def process_legacy(value: Union[int, str]) -> str:
"""Process int or string."""
return str(value)
```
## Class Type Hints
```python
from typing import ClassVar
class User:
"""User with type-hinted attributes."""
# Instance attributes
id: str
name: str
email: str
age: Optional[int] = None
# Class variable
default_role: ClassVar[str] = "user"
def __init__(self, id: str, name: str, email: str) -> None:
"""Initialize user."""
self.id = id
self.name = name
self.email = email
def get_display_name(self) -> str:
"""Get display name."""
return self.name
@classmethod
def from_dict(cls, data: Dict[str, Any]) -> "User":
"""Create user from dictionary."""
return cls(
id=data["id"],
name=data["name"],
email=data["email"]
)
@staticmethod
def validate_email(email: str) -> bool:
"""Validate email format."""
return "@" in email
```
## Generic Types
```python
from typing import TypeVar, Generic, List, Dict
T = TypeVar('T')
K = TypeVar('K')
V = TypeVar('V')
class Container(Generic[T]):
"""Generic container for any type."""
def __init__(self, item: T) -> None:
"""Initialize with item."""
self.item = item
def get(self) -> T:
"""Get the item."""
return self.item
def set(self, item: T) -> None:
"""Set the item."""
self.item = item
class Cache(Generic[K, V]):
"""Generic key-value cache."""
def __init__(self) -> None:
"""Initialize cache."""
self._data: Dict[K, V] = {}
def get(self, key: K) -> Optional[V]:
"""Get value by key."""
return self._data.get(key)
def set(self, key: K, value: V) -> None:
"""Set key-value pair."""
self._data[key] = value
# Usage
int_container: Container[int] = Container(42)
str_cache: Cache[str, User] = Cache()
```
## Collection Type Hints
```python
# Modern syntax (Python 3.9+)
def process_items(items: list[str]) -> dict[str, int]:
"""Process list of strings."""
return {item: len(item) for item in items}
def aggregate(data: set[int]) -> tuple[int, int]:
"""Get min and max from set."""
return (min(data), max(data))
# Legacy syntax (pre-3.9)
from typing import List, Dict, Set, Tuple
def process_items_legacy(items: List[str]) -> Dict[str, int]:
"""Process list of strings."""
return {item: len(item) for item in items}
# Nested collections
def group_users(users: List[User]) -> Dict[str, List[User]]:
"""Group users by role."""
pass
# Complex types
from typing import Mapping, Sequence, Iterable
def process_mapping(data: Mapping[str, Any]) -> Sequence[str]:
"""Process read-only mapping."""
pass
def process_iterable(items: Iterable[int]) -> list[int]:
"""Process any iterable."""
return list(items)
```
## Optional and None
```python
# Optional (can be None)
def get_user(user_id: str) -> Optional[User]:
"""Get user, None if not found."""
pass
# Explicit None checking
def process_user(user: Optional[User]) -> str:
"""Process user with None check."""
if user is None:
return "No user"
return user.name
# Default None parameter
def create_report(
title: str,
author: Optional[str] = None,
tags: Optional[List[str]] = None
) -> Report:
"""Create report with optional fields."""
if tags is None:
tags = []
return Report(title=title, author=author, tags=tags)
```
## Async Type Hints
```python
import asyncio
from typing import AsyncIterator
async def fetch_data(url: str) -> Dict[str, Any]:
"""Fetch data asynchronously."""
pass
async def fetch_all(urls: List[str]) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]:
"""Fetch multiple URLs."""
tasks = [fetch_data(url) for url in urls]
return await asyncio.gather(*tasks)
async def stream_data() -> AsyncIterator[str]:
"""Stream data asynchronously."""
for i in range(10):
await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
yield f"item-{i}"
# Usage
async def main() -> None:
"""Main async function."""
data = await fetch_data("https://example.com")
async for item in stream_data():
print(item)
```
## Type Narrowing
```python
from typing import Union
def process_value(value: Union[int, str, None]) -> str:
"""Process value with type narrowing."""
if value is None:
return "none"
elif isinstance(value, int):
# Type narrowed to int
return f"int: {value * 2}"
elif isinstance(value, str):
# Type narrowed to str
return f"str: {value.upper()}"
else:
# This should never happen with proper types
raise TypeError(f"Unexpected type: {type(value)}")
def process_user(user: Optional[User]) -> str:
"""Process user with None check."""
if user is None:
return "No user"
# Type narrowed to User (not None)
return user.name
```
## Type Aliases
```python
from typing import TypeAlias, NewType
# Type alias (simple)
UserId: TypeAlias = str
Email: TypeAlias = str
Metadata: TypeAlias = Dict[str, Any]
def get_user(user_id: UserId) -> User:
"""Get user by ID."""
pass
def send_email(email: Email, subject: str) -> None:
"""Send email."""
pass
# NewType (distinct type)
UserId = NewType('UserId', str)
ProductId = NewType('ProductId', str)
def get_user(user_id: UserId) -> User:
"""Get user by ID."""
pass
# These are type-safe
user_id: UserId = UserId("usr_123")
product_id: ProductId = ProductId("prd_456")
# This would be a mypy error:
# get_user(product_id) # Error: Expected UserId, got ProductId
```
## Protocol Types
```python
from typing import Protocol
class Drawable(Protocol):
"""Protocol for drawable objects."""
def draw(self) -> None:
"""Draw the object."""
...
class Circle:
"""Circle class."""
def draw(self) -> None:
"""Draw circle."""
print("Drawing circle")
class Square:
"""Square class."""
def draw(self) -> None:
"""Draw square."""
print("Drawing square")
def render(shape: Drawable) -> None:
"""Render any drawable shape."""
shape.draw()
# Both work with structural typing
render(Circle())
render(Square())
```
## Literal Types
```python
from typing import Literal
def set_status(status: Literal["active", "inactive", "suspended"]) -> None:
"""Set status to specific values only."""
pass
# Valid
set_status("active")
# Invalid (mypy error)
# set_status("unknown")
def process_mode(mode: Literal["read", "write", "append"]) -> None:
"""Process with specific mode."""
if mode == "read":
pass
elif mode == "write":
pass
elif mode == "append":
pass
```
## Type Guards
```python
from typing import TypeGuard
def is_string_list(val: List[Any]) -> TypeGuard[List[str]]:
"""Check if list contains only strings."""
return all(isinstance(item, str) for item in val)
def process_strings(items: List[Any]) -> None:
"""Process list if all items are strings."""
if is_string_list(items):
# Type narrowed to List[str]
for item in items:
print(item.upper()) # Safe, item is str
```
## ❌ Anti-Patterns
```python
# ❌ No type hints
def process_data(data): # Missing all type hints
return data
# ✅ Better
def process_data(data: Dict[str, Any]) -> Dict[str, Any]:
return data
# ❌ Using Any everywhere
def process(data: Any) -> Any: # Too generic
pass
# ✅ Better: specific types
def process(data: Dict[str, str]) -> List[str]:
pass
# ❌ Mutable default arguments
def add_item(item: str, items: List[str] = []) -> List[str]:
items.append(item)
return items
# ✅ Better: use None and create new list
def add_item(item: str, items: Optional[List[str]] = None) -> List[str]:
if items is None:
items = []
items.append(item)
return items
# ❌ Not using Optional
def get_user(user_id: str) -> User: # Can return None!
return None # Type error
# ✅ Better
def get_user(user_id: str) -> Optional[User]:
return None # Correct
# ❌ Wrong collection types (pre-3.9)
def process(items: list) -> dict: # Should use List, Dict
pass
# ✅ Better
from typing import List, Dict
def process(items: List[str]) -> Dict[str, int]:
pass
```
## Best Practices Checklist
- ✅ All public functions have type hints
- ✅ All class attributes have type hints
- ✅ Use `Optional[T]` for values that can be None
- ✅ Use specific types instead of `Any` when possible
- ✅ Use modern syntax (`list[T]`) on Python 3.9+
- ✅ Use `Protocol` for structural typing
- ✅ Use `TypeAlias` for complex type expressions
- ✅ Use `Literal` for fixed string/int values
- ✅ Run mypy in strict mode
- ✅ Handle None cases explicitly
- ✅ Use type narrowing with isinstance checks
- ✅ Avoid mutable default arguments
## Mypy Configuration
Add to `pyproject.toml`:
```toml

## Auto-Apply
When writing Python code:
1. Add type hints to all function parameters
2. Add return type hints to all functions
3. Use `Optional[T]` for nullable values
4. Use specific collection types
5. Run mypy to verify type safety
6. Fix any type errors
