Every Conductor Cloud API primitive, plus bounded session orchestration that handles asynchronous lifecycle races. Trigger phrases: `launch this in Conductor`, `monitor this Conductor session`, `steer the Conductor agent`, `run this task in Conductor Cloud`, `show recent Conductor work`.
Why this skill is useful
Adds specific commands and workflows for orchestrating tasks in Conductor Cloud that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.
What it needs
Requires conductor-pp-cli installed locally. About 11k tokens when loaded. Last updated 2026-08-06. 1,890 stars on the source repository.

See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". --> Conductor Cloud — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the conductor-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: conductor-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. Use launch, monitor, steer, and run to control coding-agent work without relying on the desktop app. The CLI treats status changes, transcript cursors, cancellation, and timeouts as one lifecycle instead of unrelated API calls. When to Use This CLI Use this CLI for Conductor Cloud project, workspace, session, message, and transcript operations. Prefer the workflow commands when a task spans several API calls or depends on asynchronous status. Do not use it to read Linear issues; ENG-526 owns that integration. …
How to use it
