Coffee GOAT — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the coffee-goat-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:

   npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install coffee-goat --cli-only
   

2. Verify: coffee-goat-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):

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/food-and-dining/coffee-goat/cmd/coffee-goat-pp-cli@latest

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.

When to Use This CLI

Use coffee-goat when an agent needs to compare or recommend specialty coffee across many roasters at once, when answering 'what should I drink next' or 'what should I buy next' from a user's logged cellar, when finding YouTube creator coverage of a specific bag in seconds instead of rewatching a 20-minute video, when matching champion recipes to currently-buyable beans, when mapping a user's palate onto the SCA flavor wheel, when picking a gift bag for a friend whose palate profile is imported, when finding cafes near a location, or when diagnosing whether a user's recent low ratings are bean quality or equipment drift. Do NOT use it for ordering — coffee-goat is read-only across upstream sources. Do NOT use it to find which beans a cafe serves — no public no-auth source links cafes to beans.

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.

The God cup

• god-cup — Integrates your shelf, brew history, Coffee Review scores, Hoffmann/Hedrick coverage, and champion recipes to produce one brew-now pick and one buy-next pick.

  Pick this as the headline 'what should I do next' question; integrates every signal source into one answer.

  coffee-goat god-cup --method espresso --agent
  

Cross-source corpus

• search — Search every elite specialty roaster's catalog at once — Ethiopian naturals across the curated shelf in one query.

  Pick this when an agent needs a cross-source, structured product query rather than visiting many storefronts.

  coffee-goat search "ethiopia natural" --in-stock --price-lt 2500 --agent
  

• watch — Saved search emits only new matches on each sync — silent when nothing changed, cron-safe.

  Pick this when a user wants to be alerted the moment a specific producer or origin appears anywhere.

  coffee-goat watch save bermudez "diego bermudez gesha" --agent
  

• twin — Given a bean you loved, find the closest current match across the curated shelf via origin/varietal/process/altitude/descriptor similarity.

  Pick this to replace a sold-out favorite without manually scanning every other roaster.

  coffee-goat twin sey-banko-gotiti --top 5 --agent
  

• compare — Side-by-side bean table with origin/process/altitude/$/oz/score deltas; works across roasters.

  Pick this when choosing between candidates from different roasters with structured deltas.

  coffee-goat compare sey-banko-gotiti glitch-yirgacheffe --agent
  

• producer — Track a producer or farm (Diego Bermudez, Wush Wush, El Paraiso) across every roaster sync — multi-year lineage view.

  Pick this to compare different roasters' interpretations of one producer or to track lot evolution.

  coffee-goat producer "Diego Bermudez" --min-roasters 3 --agent
  

• fx — Live ECB FX rates normalize $/oz across continents; curated shipping table adds ship-to landed cost.

  Pick this before ordering from JP/DK/UK/DE roasters to compare true landed cost.

  coffee-goat fx tim-wendelboe-finca-el-paraiso --target USD --to us-domestic --agent
  

Personal-history analytics

• dial-in — Suggest grind/dose/yield/time for a new bean using your brew history of similar beans (origin/process/varietal/altitude clusters).

  Pick this to start with a confidence-banded recipe instead of burning beans on cold-start dial-ins.

  coffee-goat dial-in sey-banko-gotiti --method espresso --agent
  

• shelf — What's on your shelf today, sorted by freshness with per-method peak windows (espresso 8–21d, filter 5–28d).

  Pick this to answer 'what should I open next' with hard freshness rules.

  coffee-goat shelf --method v60 --agent
  

• whats-next — Joins shelf freshness × dial-in confidence × user palate signature to pick one bag from your shelf for tomorrow morning.

  Pick this when the household agent needs one deterministic 'brew this' answer at dawn.

  coffee-goat whats-next --method v60 --agent
  

• drift — Detect grinder/water/technique drift via fixed-effects OLS on rating-vs-day across multiple beans; partitions variance by method.

  Pick this when ratings slide across unrelated beans — the CLI tells you it's your hardware, not the coffee.

  coffee-goat drift --method espresso --agent
  

• refill-plan — Combines consumption rate from your brews + shelf depletion + cross-roaster twin similarity to recommend 3 replacement picks.

  Pick this to never run out of coffee and always restock toward your taste profile.

  coffee-goat refill-plan --agent
  

• blind-cup — Blind cupping session with hashed cup IDs; reveal at end and report Spearman correlation against Coffee Review's scores.

  Pick this to quantify how your palate maps to published scores over time.

  coffee-goat blind-cup --agent
  

• palate-map — Aggregate your 8+ rated brews into an origin/process/varietal weight signature, then rank current shelf and restock candidates by signature match.

  Pick this to see what flavor profile you actually prefer (vs what you claim), and rank everything by it.

Editorial signal

• creator-review — Find every Hoffmann or Hedrick clip that mentions a bean or roaster, with transcript excerpt and timestamp.

  Pick this when the user remembers Hoffmann or Hedrick talking about a bag and wants the exact clip in 30 seconds, not a 20-minute rewatch.

  coffee-goat creator-review sey-banko-gotiti --agent
  

• transcript-search — Local FTS5 search across all synced Hoffmann + Hedrick transcripts with timestamp + video link.

  Pick this when an agent needs the exact clip where a creator said X.

  coffee-goat transcript-search "flow profiling" --agent --select results.video_title,results.timestamp,results.excerpt
  

• recipe-replay — Hardcoded library of 10 canonical V60 recipes (Hoffmann 2018/2023, Tetsu 4:6 light/dark, Lance Pulse, WBrC 2020-2024 champions) with structured 5-tuple + technique markdown.

  Pick this to bridge from theoretical champion routines to your specific bean — match scores by bean features, apply scales dose+water, --log pre-fills a brews row.

  coffee-goat recipe-replay apply hoffmann-ultimate-2023 sey/banko-gotiti --dose 18 --log
  

Command Reference

products — Unified roaster product corpus synced from 24 specialty coffee roasters

• coffee-goat-pp-cli products — List synced roaster products with structured filters

Finding the right command

When you know what you want to do but not which command does it, ask the CLI directly:

coffee-goat-pp-cli which "<capability in your own words>"

which resolves a natural-language capability query to the best matching command from this CLI's curated feature index. Exit code 0 means at least one match; exit code 2 means no confident match — fall back to --help or use a narrower query.

Hand-written Extensions

These commands are declared by the spec author and require separate hand-written wiring; the generator does not emit Cobra registration for them. They are listed here for discoverability and are intentionally outside ## Command Reference so the verify-skill unknown-command check does not treat them as generator-owned paths.

Recipes

The God cup — one brew, one buy

coffee-goat god-cup --method v60 --agent --select brew_pick.bean,brew_pick.score,brew_pick.rationale,buy_pick.product,buy_pick.roaster,buy_pick.rationale

The eponymous command. Integrates shelf freshness, brew history, Coffee Review scores, and creator coverage into one brew-now pick and one buy-next pick. The --select narrows to the agent-relevant fields when the response is deep.

Did Hoffmann or Hedrick ever review this bag

coffee-goat creator-review sey-banko-gotiti --agent --select results.creator,results.video_title,results.timestamp,results.transcript_excerpt

Returns every clip that mentions the bag, with timestamp and a snippet — answers in 30 seconds what would otherwise be a 20-minute rewatch.

Restock alert across roasters

coffee-goat watch save kenyas "kenya" --agent

Save a cross-roaster query; on subsequent runs coffee-goat watch run kenyas emits only new matches since last sync.

Map your palate onto the SCA Flavor Wheel

coffee-goat flavor-wheel --agent --select preferred,avoided,sparse_coverage

Aggregates your rated brews against the official SCA Coffee Tasters Flavor Wheel hierarchy — shows which flavor families you actually like.

Recommend a bag for a friend whose palate you have

coffee-goat friend-pick pick anne --from market --top 3 --agent

Import a friend palate via coffee-goat friend-pick palate-import friend.json; pick recommends bags matching their descriptor signature, not yours.

Log a brew and ask what to brew next

coffee-goat brews cellar add --roaster sey --product banko-gotiti --roast-date 2026-05-10 --mass-g 250
coffee-goat brews log --bean 1 --method v60 --dose-g 18 --yield-g 300 --time-s 180 --rating 8 --descriptors "blackberry,plum"
coffee-goat whats-next --method v60 --agent

Captures one brew, then ranks every bag in the cellar by combined freshness + dial-in confidence + palate fit. Run whats-next whenever the user asks "what should I brew next."

Plan reorders for the week

coffee-goat refill-plan --horizon-days 7 --twins-per-bag 3 --agent

Projects how many days of coffee remain for each bag from recent brew-log dose use; flags bags running out inside the horizon and suggests cross-roaster twin replacements ranked by similarity.

Compare two bags head-to-head

coffee-goat compare sey/banko-gotiti onyx/geisha-honey --agent

Joins both bags' attributes + Coffee Review score + your own brew rating into one row each. Use this when deciding between two specific bags rather than browsing.

Find the Hedrick puck-prep clip

coffee-goat transcript-search "puck prep" --creator hedrick --agent

Returns matching excerpts with an approximate &t=<seconds> jump URL — works when the user remembers a technique but not the bag.

Auth Setup

No authentication required.

Run coffee-goat-pp-cli doctor to verify setup.

Agent Mode

Add --agent to any command. Expands to: --json --compact --no-input --no-color --yes.

• Pipeable — JSON on stdout, errors on stderr

• Filterable — --select keeps a subset of fields. Dotted paths descend into nested structures; arrays traverse element-wise. Critical for keeping context small on verbose APIs:

  coffee-goat-pp-cli products --agent --select id,name,status
  

• Previewable — --dry-run shows the request without sending

• Offline-friendly — sync/search commands can use the local SQLite store when available

• Non-interactive — never prompts, every input is a flag

• Read-only — do not use this CLI for create, update, delete, publish, comment, upvote, invite, order, send, or other mutating requests

Response envelope

Commands that read from the local store or the API wrap output in a provenance envelope:

{
  "meta": {"source": "live" | "local", "synced_at": "...", "reason": "..."},
  "results": <data>
}

Parse .results for data and .meta.source to know whether it's live or local. A human-readable N results (live) summary is printed to stderr only when stdout is a terminal AND no machine-format flag (--json, --csv, --compact, --quiet, --plain, --select) is set — piped/agent consumers and explicit-format runs get pure JSON on stdout.

Agent Feedback

When you (or the agent) notice something off about this CLI, record it:

coffee-goat-pp-cli feedback "the --since flag is inclusive but docs say exclusive"
coffee-goat-pp-cli feedback --stdin < notes.txt
coffee-goat-pp-cli feedback list --json --limit 10

Entries are stored locally at ~/.coffee-goat-pp-cli/feedback.jsonl. They are never POSTed unless COFFEE_GOAT_FEEDBACK_ENDPOINT is set AND either --send is passed or COFFEE_GOAT_FEEDBACK_AUTO_SEND=true. Default behavior is local-only.

Write what surprised you, not a bug report. Short, specific, one line: that is the part that compounds.

Output Delivery

Every command accepts --deliver <sink>. The output goes to the named sink in addition to (or instead of) stdout, so agents can route command results without hand-piping. Three sinks are supported:

Sink	Effect
stdout	Default; write to stdout only
file:<path>	Atomically write output to <path> (tmp + rename)
webhook:<url>	POST the output body to the URL (application/json or application/x-ndjson when --compact)

Unknown schemes are refused with a structured error naming the supported set. Webhook failures return non-zero and log the URL + HTTP status on stderr.

Named Profiles

A profile is a saved set of flag values, reused across invocations. Use it when a scheduled agent calls the same command every run with the same configuration - HeyGen's "Beacon" pattern.

coffee-goat-pp-cli profile save briefing --json
coffee-goat-pp-cli --profile briefing products
coffee-goat-pp-cli profile list --json
coffee-goat-pp-cli profile show briefing
coffee-goat-pp-cli profile delete briefing --yes

Explicit flags always win over profile values; profile values win over defaults. agent-context lists all available profiles under available_profiles so introspecting agents discover them at runtime.
