Research direction
Start with the Makefile and .github/workflows/make-based-ci.yml, especially the referenced poetry, pyenv, diff-poetry-lockfile, and poetry-venv-implode uses. Compare the current workflow with uv and record the requested setup, installation, update, tooling, helper-task, and lockfile findings; done means the experiment and its results are documented, not necessarily a migration.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
uv is fast rising in popularity. It's written by Astral, the same folks behind ruff.
It does everything that Poetry does when combined with pyenv for Python installation, although its Python or even pyenv's may not be suitable for production use.
This experimentation should try swapping out poetry + pyenv in the Makefile to see what changes would be necessary.
I would not consider a wholesale switch until uv is 1.0.0, at which time I'd consider it with the values of
-
first-time setup performance
-
package installation performance (cold cache)
-
package update performance (hot cache)
-
availability of tooling replacements, e.g. diff-poetry-lockfile in our GitHub workflows
-
minimization of helper tasks e.g. poetry-venv-implode.
-
lockfile improvements (e.g. standardization track vs bespoke, diff-able, etc.)

others TBD
