Overview
What It Does
Python Anti Patterns packages a focused coding & development workflow for an AI agent. Use this skill when reviewing Python code for common anti-patterns to avoid. Use as a checklist when reviewing code, before finalizing implementations, or when debugging issues that might stem from known bad practices. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
