pp-edgar
An agent-native CLI for SEC EDGAR — six sanctioned endpoints, SQLite-cached filings with FTS5, and LODESTAR-shaped... Trigger phrases: `primary sources for <ticker>`, `insider summary <ticker>`, `recheck delta for <ticker>`, `eightk items <ticker>`, `xbrl pivot`, `use edgar-pp-cli`, `run edgar`.

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: edgar-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 Use edgar-pp-cli when an agent needs structured SEC filing data shaped for token-efficient consumption — primary-source bundles, insider-summary with S/F discrimination, cross-quarter MD&A diffs, or local FTS5 over cached filings. The compound primary-sources command is the LODESTAR shape: one call returns the full evidence pack for a Gate 1/2/3 thesis. Do not use this CLI for Federal Register searches, regulations.gov dockets, activist short reports, or NASDAQ short interest — those are out of scope and handled elsewhere. 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. …
