Problem
buckaroo-tauri exposes BuckarooConfig::xorq() as a first-class backend preset (crates/buckaroo-tauri/src/config.rs:38-44) and its README tells users to install the matching Python deps via:
pip install 'buckaroo[xorq]'
But buckaroo has no xorq extra. pip/uv silently install base buckaroo, then python -m buckaroo.server crashes with ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tornado'.
Available extras on buckaroo==0.13.5: dev, jupyterlab, marimo, mcp, notebook, packaging-tools, polars, test. The server deps (tornado) only ship under [mcp].
Proposal
Add an xorq extra in pyproject.toml:
[project.optional-dependencies]
xorq = [
"tornado>=6.0",
"xorq",
# any xorq-specific bridges buckaroo needs at runtime
]
And, while we're there, consider whether [pandas] should exist for symmetry with the existing BuckarooConfig::pandas() preset — same install-time gotcha.
Why this matters
The BuckarooConfig Rust API and the Python install extras should be 1:1. Today a user who follows the buckaroo-tauri README ends up with a broken sidecar and no clear error attribution — the install command "succeeds" with only a single-line warning that's easy to miss in CI output.
Companion docs issue filed at buckaroo-data/buckaroo-tauri covering the short-term README fix; this issue covers the long-term alignment.
Bonus consideration: the [mcp] extra name
mcp is overloaded with Model Context Protocol elsewhere. The contents are actually generic server deps (tornado). If the rename is cheap, [server] or [tauri] (or both, as aliases) would reduce confusion. Not blocking — happy to file separately if you'd prefer.
