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: overpass-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 before this CLI has a public-library category, install Node or use the category-specific Go fallback after publish. 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. Overpass is a query language wearing a REST costume, and its public mirrors fall over independently under load. This maps photographic vocabulary — water towers, lighthouses, brutalist buildings, piers, observatories — onto the right tag combinations, builds valid Overpass QL, retries across mirrors, caches results locally, and exports GeoJSON. When to Use This CLI Use this when the task is finding physical things in the world worth going to look at — structures, viewpoints, industrial or architectural subjects — near a place or along a route. It also exposes raw Overpass QL for queries the curated taxonomy does not cover. …
