Prompt: Add a one-line comment to the top of setup.py that says this file was auto-generated

Greptile Summary

This PR adds a new setup.py file with an auto-generated comment and a minimal setuptools setup() call. However, this project already uses hatchling as its build backend (configured in pyproject.toml).

  • Build system conflict: The new setup.py uses setuptools, which conflicts with the existing hatchling build backend defined in pyproject.toml. This can cause ambiguity for build tools and potentially lead to incorrect builds.
  • Unnecessary file: The project builds correctly without a setup.py — the pyproject.toml already contains all necessary build configuration. Adding this file provides no functional value and introduces risk.

Confidence Score: 2/5

  • This PR introduces a build system conflict that could cause packaging issues.
  • The addition of a setuptools-based setup.py alongside an existing hatchling-based pyproject.toml creates ambiguity for build tools. While the file is small, it introduces unnecessary risk to the build pipeline with no functional benefit.
  • setup.py — conflicts with existing hatchling build configuration in pyproject.toml

Conflicting build system with existing pyproject.toml

This PR adds a new setup.py that imports from setuptools, but the project already defines its build system in pyproject.toml using hatchling:

[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling==1.26.3", "hatch-fancy-pypi-readme"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"

Having a setup.py with from setuptools import setup alongside a pyproject.toml that uses hatchling as the build backend creates ambiguity. Some tools may pick up the setup.py and attempt to use setuptools instead of hatchling, which could cause build failures or unexpected behavior (e.g., different package metadata, missing hatch-fancy-pypi-readme processing, different include/exclude rules).

If the intent is only to add an auto-generated comment, this file shouldn't be needed at all — the project builds correctly without it. If there's a specific reason for adding setup.py, it should at minimum use the same build backend or be documented as to why it's needed alongside the existing pyproject.toml configuration.

Comment:
**Conflicting build system with existing `pyproject.toml`**

This PR adds a new `setup.py` that imports from `setuptools`, but the project already defines its build system in `pyproject.toml` using `hatchling`:

```toml
[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling==1.26.3", "hatch-fancy-pypi-readme"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"
```

Having a `setup.py` with `from setuptools import setup` alongside a `pyproject.toml` that uses `hatchling` as the build backend creates ambiguity. Some tools may pick up the `setup.py` and attempt to use `setuptools` instead of `hatchling`, which could cause build failures or unexpected behavior (e.g., different package metadata, missing `hatch-fancy-pypi-readme` processing, different `include`/`exclude` rules).

If the intent is only to add an auto-generated comment, this file shouldn't be needed at all — the project builds correctly without it. If there's a specific reason for adding `setup.py`, it should at minimum use the same build backend or be documented as to why it's needed alongside the existing `pyproject.toml` configuration.
