Enhance Your Project Quality with These Top Python Libraries
Flake8. This library is a wrapper around pycodestyle (PEP8), pyflakes, and Ned Batchelder’s McCabe script. It is a great toolkit for checking your code base against coding style (PEP8), programming errors (like SyntaxError, NameError, etc) and to check cyclomatic complexity.

Is it considered rude to completely change the formatting of someone else's code when making a PR?
https://github.com/psf/black it’s a PEP8 compliant formatter for Python codebases. If you don’t like auto formatting files you can use https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8 it just lists out all of the style issues so you can fix them manually.

Ruff: one Python linter to rule them all
I have no stake in that, but my observation is that the actual discussion appears to have both supporters and detractors rather than overwhelming support. Either way, it has nothing to do with whether or not it is realistic to say that Ruff is the "one Python linter to rule them all".

- Even the Pylint codebase uses Ruff

New model using orca dataset
I found three, code-formatting tools when looking at that for IDE's: autopep8; black; yapf. One or more might be able to automatically fix those problems. They might also have an API or command line call for it where you could add it in your pipeline: prompt -> response -> code formatter -> formatted response.

API pull into pandas with formatting.
Your code isn't PEP-8 compliant. Use black or autopep8 on your code to auto-format your code, or at least use pylint to check for issues, before asking anyone else to read your code.

autopep8 or styler equivalent in Julia
Is there a tool that automatically styles Julia code according to some style guide similar to autopep8 in Python (https://pypi.org/project/autopep8/) or styler in R (https://www.tidyverse.org/blog/2017/12/styler-1.0.0/)?

PEP8 and long if and/or statements
I use autopep8 most of the time, but it does not even attempt to split these long conditionals. 😅
