pp-bandsintown
Turn Bandsintown's two read-only endpoints into a tour-routing brain: local cache, calendar-gap detection, lineup... Trigger phrases: `is artist X touring near jakarta`, `find routing candidates for a jakarta show`, `who's playing southeast asia in august`, `co-bills for phoenix`, `rising tracker count artists`, `use bandsintown`, `run bandsintown`.

See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". --> Bandsintown — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the bandsintown-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: bandsintown-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 Reach for this CLI when a booking question depends on aggregating Bandsintown data across artists or over time — tour-routing feasibility, calendar-gap detection, co-bill patterns, trackercount deltas. For one-off 'what shows does Phoenix have' queries, the bandsintown.com web UI is fine. For repeatable, agent-driven, multi-artist intelligence, this is the right tool. 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. Unique Capabilities These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API. …
