### 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)

This PR introduces the `lookup_tweet_by_id` tool to the X toolkit,
enabling users to retrieve tweet details by tweet ID. This enhancement
extends the toolkit's capabilities, allowing for more comprehensive
interactions with the X (Twitter) API.
**Key Changes:**
- **Added `lookup_tweet_by_id` Tool:**
- Implemented the `lookup_tweet_by_id` function in `tools/tweets.py`,
which allows users to fetch tweet information using a tweet ID.
- Included error handling for API response codes and expanded URLs in
tweets to assist language models in avoiding hallucinations due to
shortened URLs.
- **Enhanced Toolkit Structure:**
- Added several configuration files to the X toolkit to establish a
standardized project structure, which in the future will be generated by
`arcade new`. These include:
- `.pre-commit-config.yaml`: Defines pre-commit hooks for code quality
checks.
- `.ruff.toml`: Configuration for the Ruff linter.
- `LICENSE`: MIT License file for the toolkit.
- `Makefile`: Contains common commands for building, testing, and
linting the toolkit.
- **Updated Makefile:**
- Added `make check-toolkits` command to the top-level `Makefile`. This
command runs code quality tools for each toolkit that contains a
`Makefile`.
**Additional Notes:**
- **Tests:**
- Added unit tests for the new `lookup_tweet_by_id` tool in
`tests/test_tweets.py`.
- Included tests for the user lookup functionality in
`tests/test_users.py`.
- **Linting and Code Quality:**
- Configured pre-commit hooks and Ruff linter to enforce code standards.
- Updated the `pyproject.toml` file with development dependencies for
testing and linting.
