Curated by Skill Harbor: a complete idiom guide that makes Muse write and review Python the way experienced Python developers do. It covers the core principles first (readability counts, explicit over implicit, EAFP over look-before-you-leap), then modern type hints from basic annotations to Protocol-based duck typing and generics. Error handling gets specific exception catching and exception chaining instead of bare excepts. Context managers cover both the with statement and custom @contextmanager classes. Comprehensions and generators are presented with the rule for when a comprehension is too clever and should become a function. Data classes and NamedTuples, function and parameterized decorators, threading for I/O-bound work, multiprocessing for CPU-bound work, and async/await for concurrent I/O round out the skill, plus a standard src layout, a pyproject.toml with black/ruff/mypy/pytest presets, and a quick reference of Python idioms. By @affaan-m, listed here with credit to its creator. From the affaan-m/ECC repository (MIT). Honest caveats: it is guidance, not a linter, so run black, ruff and mypy for real enforcement; some examples assume Python 3.9+ or 3.10+ features, check your version first. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use.

Install
Copy the install package below, then paste it into MuseThe install prompt below already includes the vetting steps: your agent follows the community checklist before installing anything with executable code. Want more?
Use "Python Patterns" with your Muse. Prerequisites: none to install. Pure guidance; a Python project helps. 1. Open the skill: https://github.com/affaan-m/ECC/blob/main/skills/python-patterns/SKILL.md and copy the full SKILL.md text. 2. Paste it into a chat with Muse and add: "Review this Python code for idiom compliance and anti-patterns: [paste code]." 3. Ask follow-ups like "rewrite this with modern type hints and EAFP error handling" or "spot the mutable default argument bugs." Tip: pair it with real tooling: run black, ruff and mypy after the review. Safety: a skill is plain-text instructions; it runs nothing by itself. Review generated commands before running them.

Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
