Here's my assessment of issue #41:

What uv actually offers: uv itself doesn't include a linter. The confusion likely comes from the fact that uv is made by Astral, the same company that makes Ruff — a very fast Python linter and formatter written in Rust. Ruff is a natural companion to uv but is a separate tool.

Current setup: The project uses flake8 (linting) + black (formatting), both run via uv run. These are two separate dev dependencies.

Why Ruff would be a good replacement:

1. Ruff replaces both flake8 AND black — it's a linter and formatter in one tool. This would cut two dev dependencies down to one.
2. Direct uv integration — uv run ruff check and uv run ruff format work seamlessly.
3. Drop-in migration — Ruff supports all the flake8 rules currently configured (E203 ignore, E501 per-file ignore, max-line-length 132, complexity checks).
4. Much faster — 10-100x faster than flake8, though that barely matters for a project this size.
5. Config lives in pyproject.toml — eliminates the separate .flake8 file.

Migration would look like: - Replace flake8 and black with ruff in [dependency-groups] dev - Add a [tool.ruff] section in pyproject.toml mapping the current flake8/black settings - Update sh/lint.sh to use uv run ruff check and uv run ruff format - Delete .flake8

Want me to go ahead and implement this migration?

All passing. Here's a summary of the changes:

Migration from flake8+black to ruff: - pyproject.toml — replaced flake8 and black dev deps with ruff; added [tool.ruff] config sections matching the previous flake8/black settings - sh/lint.sh — updated to use ruff check and ruff format - .flake8 — deleted (config now in pyproject.toml) - Makefile — updated lint target - README.md and CLAUDE.md — updated references

One minor formatting change was applied by ruff to cloud_config.py (quote style inside an f-string). All lint checks and tests pass. Would you like me to commit this?
