Environment Triage

When uv sync or pip install behaves unexpectedly, check the actual interpreter.

Pattern

System Python is not authoritative if uv/venv selects a different interpreter.

DO

# What uv ACTUALLY uses
uv run python --version

# What's pinned (this controls uv)
cat .python-version

# Confirm package is installed
uv pip show <package>

# Confirm import works in uv context
uv run python -c "import <package>; print(<package>.__version__)"

Common Fix

If optional deps require Python 3.12+ but.python-version is 3.11:

echo "3.13" > .python-version
rm -rf .venv && uv venv && uv sync --all-extras

DON'T

• Trust python3 --version when using uv
• Assume install succeeded without verifying import
• Debug further before checking interpreter version
