What this skill does
Dreaming — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the dreaming-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: dreaming-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 before this CLI has a public-library category, install Node or use the category-specific Go fallback after publish. 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. Dreaming's web app shows your hours but won't plan, search, or bulk-import for you, and the community's features are scattered across a dozen browser extensions and scripts. This CLI unifies them into one agent-native tool backed by a local SQLite mirror of your catalog, daily series, and external-hours log - so next picks your next video offline, external import clears a CSV backlog in one shot, and roadmap lays out the whole L1-L7 fluency ladder with personalized ETAs. When to Use This CLI Use the Dreaming CLI for any task about a learner's comprehensible-input progress on Dreaming Spanish or French: checking hours and pace toward a fluency level, picking the next right-level video, searching the catalog by topic/guide/dialect, logging or bulk-importing external listening time, and analyzing whether consumed difficulty is trending up. It is the right tool whenever the question involves the hours-based roadmap or the leveled video catalog. Unique Capabilities These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API. …
