What this skill does

Kvmctl — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the kvmctl-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: kvmctl-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). This installs into $GOPATH/bin (default $HOME/go/bin), so add that directory to $PATH instead: 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. kvmctl is a Go CLI and MCP server for KVMD-compatible KVM devices such as GLKVM. It combines the verified KVMD REST surface with safe semantic operations, target-bound sequences, immutable workflows, recovery, host probes, and agent-friendly evidence envelopes. Device-specific workflows remain hand-authored application code, not generated API endpoints. Unique Capabilities These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API. Safety and agent readiness semantic capabilities — Expose named KVMD operations through stable evidence envelopes with explicit read/write policy. Agents can discover safe KVM capabilities without learning endpoint details. workflow-list — List immutable named KVM workflows in deterministic order. Workflow plans remain inspectable and reproducible before hardware actions. Immutable workflow lifecycle — use workflow-inspect, workflow-authorize, and workflow-execute to inspect redacted plans, authorize one exact revision, and execute only the approved target-bound workflow. …
