Look up running race results across NYRR, Mika Timing, Athlinks, and RaceResult by fuzzy race name, bib, runner name, or athlete history.
Why this skill is useful
Adds specific commands and workflows for looking up race results across multiple platforms that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.

What this skill does
Running Race Results — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the running-race-results-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: running-race-results-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. Use this CLI when a user wants to look up a runner's published race result, search for a runner inside a known race, or inspect a runner's cross-event history from supported race-results providers. When Not to Use This CLI Do not use this CLI for live race tracking, private training analytics, registration, purchases, or changing remote state. It is read-only and reports publicly published race results. Unique Capabilities lookup — Resolve a fuzzy race name to the right provider and edition, then return a unified result by bib or runner name. athlete — Show cross-event race history from Athlinks or NYRR by name, racer id, or the optional Athlinks current-user token. Command Reference running-race-results-pp-cli lookup "<race name>" <bib> — Look up one runner in a known race by bib. running-race-results-pp-cli lookup "<race name>" --name "<runner name>" — Search for runners by name inside the resolved race. running-race-results-pp-cli athlete "<runner name>" — Search Athlinks for a runner and show cross-event race history. …
