pp-ticktick
Every TickTick surface — tasks, habits, focus, daily notes — with a corruption-proof daily-note contract and offline analytics no other TickTick tool has. Trigger phrases: `pull up my agenda`, `update my daily note`, `log a focus session`, `check my habit streaks`, `gather my week in review`, `use ticktick`, `run ticktick`.
Why this skill is useful
Adds a CLI tool with unique commands for managing TickTick tasks and daily notes that aren't available through standard APIs.

See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". --> TickTick — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the ticktick-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: ticktick-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. Covers both TickTick APIs: the official Open API and the richer internal V2 surface (habits, focus records, completed-task history, batch ops). The 'note edit' command encodes a field-whitelist write contract that cannot corrupt TEXT-kind daily notes, and the local SQLite mirror powers 'agenda', 'review', 'habits streaks', and 'focus stats' — ritual-shaped commands that replace multi-call fan-outs. When to Use This CLI Reach for this CLI whenever an agent task touches TickTick daily notes, habits, focus sessions, or weekly reviews — the surfaces the official API does not expose. It is the safe write path for daily notes and the bounded read path for briefings and reviews. …
