See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". --> FedEx — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the fedex-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: fedex-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 fedex-pp-cli when you run a small-to-medium shipping operation and want to programmatically interact with the FedEx REST API. Right fit for: e-commerce stores creating labels from order CSVs, customer-service teams generating return labels, ops teams tracking in-flight shipments, and SMB owners who want a local ledger of every shipment and rate quote for accounting. The local SQLite archive makes it the right tool for analytical queries over historical shipments. Choose this CLI over multi-carrier SaaS (ShipStation, Shippo) when you only need FedEx, want to own your data, and prefer terminal/agent automation over web UIs. Unique Capabilities These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API. …
