# Define repeatable Python automation sessions in code with nox

Encode test, lint, build, and docs routines as named Python sessions so humans and agents run the same workflow every time.

## Prerequisites

Python environment, nox, and a repository with a versioned noxfile defining the intended automation sessions

## Installation

Choose whichever fits your setup:

1. Copy this skill folder into your local skills directory.
2. Clone the repo and symlink or copy the skill into your agent workspace.
3. Add the repo as a git submodule if you manage shared skills centrally.
4. Install it through your internal provisioning or packaging workflow.
5. Download the folder directly from GitHub and place it in your skills collection.

Install command or upstream instructions:

```
Install nox from the upstream Python package, add or review a noxfile.py with named sessions for the repository workflow, then run the desired session locally or in CI through the documented nox commands.
```
