pp-teslatracker
Every used Tesla TeslaTracker lists, in a local store that answers questions the site cannot — price paths, cohort placement, warranty left, and what already left the lot. Trigger phrases: `find a used tesla`, `track tesla prices`, `what tesla dropped in price`, `how much warranty is left on this vin`, `is this tesla price good`, `use teslatracker`, `run teslatracker`.

What this skill does
TeslaTracker — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: Install the CLI This skill drives the teslatracker-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: teslatracker-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. TeslaTracker aggregates used Teslas across Tesla, Carvana, CarMax and private sellers. This CLI mirrors that inventory into VIN-keyed SQLite and adds the layer the website has no way to offer: a recorded price path per car (price-history), where a price sits in its cohort (comps), how much warranty is genuinely left at delivery (warranty), and which cars quietly left inventory (gone). Every money figure is landed cost, including the real per-car transport fee. When to Use This CLI Use this CLI when the question is about used Tesla inventory over time rather than right now: whether a price has moved, how it compares to similar cars, how much warranty remains, or what has left the market. It is strongest after several syncs, because the price series and departure log accumulate locally. Anti-triggers Do not use this CLI for: Do not use this to control or query a Tesla you already own — that is the Owner/Fleet API, not this. Do not use this to buy a car; it has no checkout, no ordering, and no dealer contact. …
