See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". --> Kalshi — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the kalshi-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: kalshi-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. Every Kalshi feature, plus a local SQLite store that records market prices on every sync — so movers, correlations, and price history work offline. Honest about read-only vs read/write keys, with --dry-run on every mutator and a global --read-only safe-mode lock for newsroom and bot deployments. When to Use This CLI Reach for kalshi-pp-cli when an agent needs price-over-time or category-level analytics on Kalshi markets — the public API only returns current prices and flat positions, so historical and aggregated questions require the local snapshot store. Use it for daily portfolio reconciliation, signal discovery via correlation across markets, and safe scripting against read-only API credentials. …
