Local runners (ollama, llama-cpp-python, mlx-lm) and production serving engines (vllm, sglang) answer different needs, and one use case could not hold both at the cap. The old page redirects to LLM Serving.

sglang was listed above vllm on a ClickPy monthly count inflated by release-day spikes. The audit kept every other entry.
- ClickPy last-30-day, fetched 2026-10-12: sglang 2,136,488, vllm 2,109,399.
- pypistats daily, mirrors excluded, fetched 2026-10-14: sglang swings between 7K and 487K a day while vllm holds 56K-82K. Last week: vllm 463,948, sglang 176,630.

Nine entries linked https://github.com/owner/repo/ while every other
entry uses the bare form. Formatting only; the site's repo regex already
accepted both.

The subcategory nearly repeated its section's name, so its page could compete with the section page for the same searches, as Code Analysis did.

The catch-all subcategory shared its section's name, so its page ("Code Analysis for Code Analysis") split the "python code analysis" query with the section page in Search Console.

The description said "Used for forms in many cases", which fits none of its four projects (pydantic, jsonschema, great-expectations, pandera).

scrapy was described as "screen scraping", python-patterns dropped "idioms", marimo's line was a run-on that skipped "reactive", and llama-index's predated its docs' "toolkit for RAG and agents". hermes-agent linked a lowercase owner that only resolved by redirect.

The Mock entry was named `mock`, the PyPI backport package, while it links to and describes the standard-library `unittest.mock` module.

jev-ultrafast's line read like a self-contained browser agent, but its README requires a TYPESAFE_API_KEY because action selection runs on TypeSafe's hosted Jev service.

Four display names broke the naming convention (display name = PyPI package name): jupyter linked the notebook project while PyPI jupyter is a metapackage, and factory_boy, pygobject and kivy differ from their PyPI names factory-boy, PyGObject and Kivy.

Hardware had no serial-port library, though pyserial is the standard answer at about 12M downloads/month, roughly 8x the largest listed Hardware entry.

Two sections broke the downloads-order rule: bleak sat above pynput, which has more downloads, and pythonnet sat above pywin32, which has about seven times more.

Web Security had no HTML sanitizer since bleach was removed as deprecated; only justhtml in HTML Manipulation sanitizes, as part of parsing.

Penetration Testing had no library for Windows and Active Directory protocol work (SMB, Kerberos, NTLM relay).

Removed: social-engineer-toolkit (no PyPI download signal; not published on PyPI): a standalone social-engineering console rather than something Python developers use in their Python work, so it fails Serves Python Developers; its pyproject also requires Python >=3.11,<3.14. Its slot goes to impacket and pwntools in the next commits.

hydra-core linked facebookresearch/hydra, which redirects to hydra-ecosystem/hydra after a repo transfer (same GitHub repo id), and an earlier commit had treated the new location as an unrelated project.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Removed: shiv (224,563 downloads/month, pypistats 2026-10-02): displaced by pex (4,682,918/month on the same source, released 2026-10-02), the more-used and more-active builder for the same self-contained zipapp job; shiv's last release was 1.0.8 on 2024-11-01.

Build Backends omitted poetry-core, the backend of every Poetry project, at 88,000,485 downloads/month; about 47M remains without poetry, still 3x uv-build.

Package Repositories omitted pypiserver, the minimal self-hosted index the PyPA hosting guide names alongside devpi, which has 5x the downloads of devpi-server.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Removed: warehouse (no PyPI download signal; not a pip-installed package): the section is self-hosted servers, proxies, and mirrors, and Warehouse is not one. Its docs call pypi.org the canonical deployment and document only a local development setup, and the PyPA guide to hosting your own repository does not list it. Also: devpi (99,216 downloads/month for devpi-server, pypistats 2026-10-02) moves above bandersnatch (4,351) to follow the downloads order.

The uuid-utils line set it apart by RFC 9562 support (UUIDv6, v7, v8), but the standard library uuid module gained uuid6, uuid7 and uuid8 in Python 3.14, so that no longer distinguishes it.

pygame led Game Frameworks although its last release, 2.6.1, has no Python 3.14 wheel and the source build fails, while the actively developed drop-in replacement pygame-ce sat below it.

Audio listed no general audio file I/O library, though soundfile is the standard libsndfile reader and writer under librosa.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Removed: vidgear (10,854 downloads/month, pypistats 2026-10-02): a challenger with no adoption trajectory (about half its August count), not anyone's unprompted answer next to moviepy and PyAV. Also: pydub moves below librosa to Second Tier under the Python-version rule; its only release, 0.25.1 (2021), fails `import pydub` on Python 3.13+ without audioop-lts, but it still has 17,778,797 downloads/month.

PDF omitted pymupdf, the second most-installed PDF library at 81,101,392 downloads/month (pypistats 2026-10-02) and the fastest at text extraction and page rendering.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
beautifulsoup4 sat above lxml although lxml now has more monthly downloads (313.9M vs 297.1M), and the reportlab link redirected to the docs site.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Removed: sqids (537,334 downloads/month, pypistats 2026-10-02): fails the 12-month activity line (last commit 2025-03-26, last release 2025-05-13), and its predecessor hashids still draws about 4x its downloads, so there is no successor trajectory to justify a challenger slot.
