### Install into your coding agents

```sh
uvx awesome-python-dev init --agents codex,claude --tools fetch
```

Run inside the project you want to equip. This command targets Codex and Claude Code; use `--agents` to choose other supported agents. [Read the prerequisites and setup guide](https://m9rco.github.io/awesome-python-dev/getting-started/) .

The installer writes MCP configuration. Your coding agent starts the server after reload and approval; installation does not run server tools.

### Integration notes

uv/uvx and Python >=3.10. This is an upstream reference server; assess URL/network access for your environment. No private-IP bypass is enabled.
