And what do you expect to happen if you do uv tool install --with foo black httpx?

Why not run uv tool install ruff commitizen pre-commit? I hope these three can be installed.

Sorry that's not answering my question — what do you expect ot happen when you use --with or other flags with multiple install targets?

[pplmx]

It seems that --with is intended for managing executables that require additional dependencies, whereas the aforementioned feature request focuses on installing, upgrading, or uninstalling multiple independent executables at the same time.
(Maybe the FR desc is not very clear, I'm sorry ><)

So the problem here is uv tool install tool1 tool2 is fine but once other flags are included, e.g., --with plugin1 it doesn't make sense if plugin1 should be applied to both tools or what. We're not excited about complicating the install interface to support multiple packages in this way.

However, I think uv tool uninstall and uv tool upgrade could definitely support multiple names.
