What this skill does
authentik — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the authentik-pp-cli binary. You must verify the CLI is installed before invoking any command from this skill. If it is missing, install it first: 1. Install via the Printing Press installer: 2. Verify: authentik-pp-cli --version 3. Ensure $GOPATH/bin (or $HOME/go/bin) is on $PATH. If the npx install fails (no Node, offline, etc.), fall back to a direct Go install (requires Go 1.26.6 or newer): If --version reports "command not found" after install, the install step did not put the binary on $PATH. Do not proceed with skill commands until verification succeeds. Inspect users, groups, applications, flows, tokens, and providers from the terminal or from Claude. Sync once, query offline, audit with a single command. When to Use This CLI Use this CLI when you need to audit or inspect an authentik installation from the terminal or from an agent. Best for read-heavy admin workflows, token hygiene, and access audits.
