Zero-Setup Python Script Dependencies with uv

With this header, uv automatically creates and manages a dedicated virtual environment for your script.

#!/usr/bin/env -S uv run --script
# /// script
# requires-python = ">=3.13"
# dependencies = [
#     "package-name>=1.0.0",
#     "another-package",
# ]
# ///

# Rest of the script...

Add Dependencies from the CLI

uv add --script script.py dependency_1 dependency_2 dependency_3
