Recommended Skills
Journey fit
Operate/iterate is where personal tooling and CLI workflows you rely on daily get maintained and extended—not a core revenue feature for most solo SaaS builds. Iterate fits optional lifestyle and side-project CLIs you keep running alongside your product, using Printing Press install patterns and Bash-invoked commands.
How it compares
Printing Press Go CLI skill with Bash tooling, not an in-repo codegen template or SaaS integration skill.

Install via the Printing Press installer: ```bash npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install movie-goat --cli-only ``` 2. Verify: `movie-goat-pp-cli --version` 3. Ensure `$GOPATH/bin` (or `$HOME/go/bin`) is on `$PATH`. If the `npx` install fails (no Node, offline, etc.), fall back to a direct Go install (requires Go 1.26.3 or newer): ```bash go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/media-and-entertainment/movie-goat/cmd/movie-goat-pp-cli@latest ``` If `--version` reports "command not found" after install, the install step did not put the binary on `$PATH`. Do not proceed with skill commands until verification succeeds. ## When to Use This CLI Use Movie Goat when an agent needs to answer cinephile questions that require combining streaming availability with multi-source ratings. It is the right choice for tonight-picker scenarios, franchise marathon planning, and rated career timelines. It is not the right choice for box-office tracking, review sentiment analysis, or any workflow that needs LLM-style summaries of plot or reviews. ## When Not to Use This CLI Do not activate this CLI for requests that require creating, updating, deleting, publishing, commenting, upvoting, inviting, ordering, sending messages, booking, purchasing, or changing remote state. This printed CLI exposes read-only commands for inspection, export, sync, and analysis. ## Unique Capabilities These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API. ### Cinephile rituals - **`tonight`** — Pick what to watch tonight from trending titles actually streaming on your services. _Use this when an agent needs a streaming-filtered shortlist; one call replaces tab-bouncing across TMDb/RT/JustWatch._ ```bash movie-goat-pp-cli tonight --mood thriller --max-runtime 120 --providers netflix,max --region US --json ``` - **`ratings`** — TMDb + IMDb + Rotten Tomatoes + Metacritic ratings for any title in one card. _Use when an agent needs the canonical multi-source rating for a title; degrades gracefully to TMDb-only if OMDB_API_KEY is unset._ ```bash movie-goat-pp-cli ratings 550 --json ``` - **`marathon`** — Plan a franchise marathon with watch order, total runtime, and suggested breaks. _Use when planning an event watch; agent can dump the schedule to share with a group._ ```bash movie-goat-pp-cli marathon "The Avengers" --order release --breaks-every 240 --json ``` - **`career`** — Explore any actor or director's full filmography with ratings and chronology. _Use when an agent needs a
