Description

Currently, we assume the pip command is available when setting up a project. However, in environments created with uv venv, pip is not installed; instead, the uv pip command should be used, or pip should be installed with uv pip install pip.

Research direction

Start by locating the project-setup steps that invoke the pip command and review how the template handles environments created with uv venv. Check the existing setup or validation tests, if present. Done means a project created in a uv-based environment can complete setup without assuming that standalone pip is installed.
