Description

We could also provide another way to do this, eventually? Maybe just python when we have a shim. Maybe a bare uvx.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Add documentation to clarify that running `uv run python` starts an interactive Python REPL. Also consider documenting potential alternatives such as using a shim to allow bare `python` or a bare `uvx` command.
