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: ynab-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 1.26.5 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. This CLI mirrors your budget locally so bank reconciliation and payee spend history become instant, offline, agent-native commands instead of manual math against a live API and a 200-request-per-hour ceiling. It also ships a one-shot export shaped for downstream net-worth tools like ProjectionLab. When to Use This CLI Reach for this CLI for anything touching a YNAB budget: reading balances/categories/transactions, entering or approving transactions, funding categories, and — distinctly — trend/forecast/reconciliation questions that need history the live API doesn't retain. Anti-triggers Do not use this CLI for: Do not use this CLI to manage non-YNAB institutions (bank, brokerage, credit union) directly — it only talks to YNAB. …
