pp-coffee-goat

The third-wave coffee terminal — every elite roaster, every YouTube creator review, your brews, and the God cup. Trigger phrases: `did hoffmann review this bag`, `any new ethiopian naturals`, `the god cup`, `find a bean like the one I loved`, `show me my flavor wheel`, `what flavors do I actually like`, `recommend a bag for my friend`, `use coffee-goat`, `run coffee-goat`.

Why this skill is useful

What this skill does

Coffee GOAT — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the coffee-goat-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. It defaults binaries to $HOME/.local/bin on macOS/Linux and %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\PrintingPress\bin on Windows: 2. Verify: coffee-goat-pp-cli --version 3. Ensure the reported install directory is on $PATH for the agent/runtime that will invoke this skill. 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 runtime cannot see the binary directory on $PATH. Do not proceed with skill commands until verification succeeds. When to Use This CLI Use coffee-goat when an agent needs to compare or recommend specialty coffee across many roasters at once, when answering 'what should I drink next' or 'what should I buy next' from a user's logged cellar, when finding YouTube creator coverage of a specific bag in seconds instead of rewatching a 20-minute video, when matching champion recipes to currently-buyable beans, when mapping a user's palate onto the SCA flavor wheel, when picking a gift bag for a friend whose palate profile is imported, when finding cafes near a location, or when diagnosing whether a user's recent low ratings are bean quality or equipment drift. Do NOT use it for ordering — coffee-goat is read-only across upstream sources. Do NOT use it to find which beans a cafe serves — no public no-auth source links cafes to beans. When Not to Use This CLI Do not activate this CLI for requests that require creating, updating, deleting, publishing, commenting, upvoting, inviting, ordering, sending messages, booking, purchasing, or changing remote state. This printed CLI exposes read-only commands for inspection, export, sync, and analysis. …
