Agent skill · mvanhorn
pp-benzinga
Every Benzinga calendar, news, fundamentals, and signal endpoint as a typed command — plus an offline SQLite store, full-text search, cross-entity queries, and the first Benzinga MCP server. Trigger phrases: `benzinga analyst ratings for AAPL`, `what changed on my watchlist`, `why is NVDA moving`, `this week's earnings calendar`, `unusual options activity`, `economic calendar this week`, `use benzinga`, `run benzinga`.

See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". --> Benzinga — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the benzinga-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: benzinga-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 1.26.4 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. Benzinga's licensed financial-data API is powerful but fragmented across ~60 endpoints and has only one complete client — a Python library with no CLI, no offline store, and no agent surface. This CLI covers the full documented REST surface as first-class commands, delta-syncs the calendar/news/signal families into a local database via the API's own updated cursors, and adds cross-entity commands the REST API cannot express in one call: watch a ticker set for overnight changes, explain why one name is moving, and rank analysts by accuracy. …
