### Overview
Major restructuring from monolithic `arcade-ai` package to modular
library architecture with standardized uv-based dependency management.
### New Package Structure
- **`arcade-tdk`** - Lightweight toolkit development kit (core
decorators, auth)
- **`arcade-core`** - Core execution engine and catalog functionality
- **`arcade-serve`** - FastAPI/MCP server components
- **`arcade-ai`** - Meta package that includes CLI functionality.
Optionally include evals via the `evals` extra. Optionally include all
packages via the `all` extra.
### Key Benefits
- **Lighter Dependencies**: Toolkits now depend only on `arcade-tdk` (~2
deps) vs full `arcade-ai` (~30+ deps)
- **Faster Builds**: uv provides 10-100x faster dependency resolution
and installation
- **Better Modularity**: Clear separation of concerns, consumers import
only what they need
- **Standard Tooling**: Eliminates custom poetry scripts, uses standard
Python packaging
### Migration Impact
- All 20 toolkits converted from poetry → uv with `arcade-tdk`
dependencies plus `arcade-ai[evals]` and `arcade-serve` dev
dependencies. When developing locally, devs should install toolkits via
`make install-local`.
- Modern Python 3.10+ type hints throughout
- Standardized build system with hatchling backend
- Enhanced Makefile with robust toolkit management commands
- Removed `arcade dev` CLI command
- Reduce the number of files created by `arcade new` and add an option
to not generate a tests and evals folder.
This foundation enables faster development cycles and cleaner dependency
chains for the growing toolkit ecosystem.
### Todo After this PR is merged
- [ ] Post-merge workflow(s) (release & publish containers, etc)
- [ ] Release order plan. @EricGustin suggests releasing in the
following order:
1. `arcade-core` version 0.1.0
2. `arcade-serve` version 0.1.0 and `arcade-tdk` version 0.1.0
3. `arcade-ai` version 2.0.0
4. Patch release for all toolkits (all changes in toolkits are internal
refactors)
- [ ] [Update docs](https://github.com/ArcadeAI/docs/pull/318)

# PR Description
* Adds/updates the following files to all toolkits:
- `.pre-commit-config.yaml`
- `.ruff.toml`
- `LICENSE`
- `Makefile`
- `pyproject.toml`
* Lint all toolkits such that they pass `make check` and `make test` (a
total doozy). This includes adding some unit tests and evals.
* Github workflow for testing toolkits before merge into main (courtesy
of @sdreyer)
* Added a QOL improvement for tool developers for when they need to get
the context's auth token.
* Minor updates to `arcade new` template.
# PR Description
This PR renames `ExpectedToolCall` to `NamedExpectedToolCall` and then
creates a new dataclass called `ExpectedToolCall`. `ExpectedToolCall`
can be passed to the `EvalSuite.add_case` and `EvalSuite.extend_case`
methods.
1. Enhance `EvalSuite.add_case` and `EvalSuite.extend_case` by accepting
a list of `ExpectedToolCall` as their `expected_tool_calls` input
parameter. This helps create a scaffolding for developers. Previously,
the expected type was `list[tuple[Callable, dict[str, Any]]]`, which is
still valid for backward compatibility.
```python
# Before (still valid for backward compatibility)
expected_tool_calls=[
(
adjust_playback_position,
{
"absolute_position_ms": 10000,
},
)
]
# After
expected_tool_calls=[
ExpectedToolCall(
func=adjust_playback_position,
args={"absolute_position_ms": 10000},
)
]
```
2. Removed any references to arcade.core in toolkits directory.
3. Some linting for import organization.
# PR Description
This PR adds three new spotify tools that are natural language friendly.
1. `search` - Search Spotify Catalog information
2. `play_artist_by_name` - Gets 5 songs by the specified artist and
plays them. Uses `search`, and `start_tracks_playback_by_id` under the
hood
3. `play_track_by_name` - Plays the specified song, optionally provide
the artist name who plays the song. Uses `search`, and
`start_tracks_playback_by_id` under the hood
