Claude-skill-registry egg-info-hygiene

Handle `src/*.egg-info` diffs in Python repos (uv-driven) to avoid committing generated metadata unintentionally.

Purpose

Keep commits/PRs clean when

src/*.egg-info/**
changes appear.

When To Use

  • git diff
    shows changes under
    src/*.egg-info/**
    (for example
    PKG-INFO
    ,
    requires.txt
    ).
  • You did not intentionally change packaging metadata (version, dependencies, build backend).

Procedure

  • Identify intent:
    • If you did change packaging metadata (dependencies, project metadata, versioning), keep investigating whether
      *.egg-info
      is expected to be committed in this repo.
    • If you did not, treat
      *.egg-info
      as generated output.
  • Confirm scope:
    • If diffs are only
      src/*.egg-info/**
      , treat as no-op for feature work.
    • If diffs include real source changes plus
      *.egg-info
      , keep the source changes and exclude the
      *.egg-info
      changes.
  • Normalize the working tree using the repo's standard setup/install workflow (for uv repos, typically
    uv sync --dev
    and
    uv pip install -e .
    ) and re-check whether the egg-info diffs persist.
  • If egg-info remains tracked and noisy, document the repo policy explicitly in
    AGENTS.md
    (do not edit tool-managed fences) so future work treats these changes consistently.

Notes

  • src/*.egg-info/**
    is commonly generated by editable installs and may change due to environment/tooling rather than code intent.
  • Do not let egg-info-only diffs drive a commit unless the repo explicitly treats them as source-controlled artifacts.
