Can I see the full version history of a Python package?

Yes, by using the `--releases` flag, you can view the complete release history, including publication timestamps and specific file information for every version.

Does this skill handle case-sensitive package names?

No, PyPI is case-insensitive. The skill automatically normalizes names, treating hyphens, underscores, and dots as equivalent to match the official PyPI behavior.

How do I search for a package with this skill?

You can retrieve package details by running the command `npx tsx scripts/info.ts ` within the plugin directory to fetch detailed metadata from PyPI.

Is the PyPI metadata cached for faster performance?

Yes, package metadata is cached for 6 hours by default. If you need the most recent data immediately, you can use the `--no-cache` flag to bypass the cache and fetch directly from PyPI.

开发者工具

Retrieves comprehensive metadata for Python packages from the Python Package Index including versions, dependencies, and project links.

PyPI Package Info is a specialized Claude Code skill that streamlines Python development by providing instant access to package metadata directly within the coding environment. It allows developers to quickly verify package versions, audit dependencies, check licensing compliance, and access project documentation without leaving the terminal. By interfacing with the official PyPI JSON API, it provides real-time data on releases, Python version requirements, and maintainer information, significantly reducing the friction of dependency management and package discovery during the development process.
