Tool ?

Maybe you mean uv tool install ?

In that case it's something you don't need right now, uv tool is useful, but it's a bonus. It's to install 3rd party utilities outside of the project.

There is no equivalent to script yets, althought they are adding it as we speak.

uv run exec any command in the context of the venv (which is like a node_modules), you don't need to declare them prior to calling them.

e.g: uv run python will start the python shell.




I was looking at https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/tools/#the-uv-tool-interf...

Edit: I get it now. It's like npm's `npx` command.


uvx is the npx equivalent, it's provided with ux, and also has some nice bonuses.
