uv-dispatch

crates/uv-dispatch/ is the concrete BuildContext implementation that the binary uses.

Purpose

The resolver and installer talk to the build frontend via the BuildContext trait (uv-types). The trait abstraction lets those crates avoid a circular dependency. uv-dispatch is where the abstraction is grounded: it knows about the cache, the HTTP client, the index configuration, and the actual uv-build-frontend so it can satisfy build requests for real.

Key abstractions

• BuildDispatch — implements BuildContext. Owns a RegistryClient, a Cache, a BuildIsolation, and the configured indexes.
• Helpers that compose BuildDispatch from settings.
