pp-mobbin
Every Mobbin screen, flow, and pattern — searchable offline, deckable in one command, with longitudinal drift no Mobbin tool ships. Trigger phrases: `show me paywall examples`, `build a design deck for <pattern>`, `what does <app> ship for onboarding`, `find empty states across web fintech`, `cross-platform parity for <pattern>`, `use mobbin`, `run mobbin`.
Why this skill is useful
Adds a CLI tool that automates design research workflows, enabling batch downloads and cross-app audits that the AI cannot generate on its own.

See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". --> Mobbin — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the mobbin-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: mobbin-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. Wraps Mobbin's curated library of shipped UI (web + mobile) with a local SQLite mirror, full-res batch downloads from the Bytescale CDN, and time-windowed audits across apps. Built for the Wednesday design crit and the quarterly onboarding audit. Uses your existing Chrome session via auth login --chrome — no extra API key, no paid MCP. When to Use This CLI Use this CLI when an agent needs to compose design-research workflows that go beyond "search and show." Reach for it for: batch downloading screens to a folder for downstream tooling; building cross-app pattern decks; running time-windowed audits ("every web SaaS onboarding from the last quarter"); or watching a competitor app for flow drift. …
