Intervals.icu — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the intervals-icu-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:

   npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install intervals-icu --cli-only
   

2. Verify: intervals-icu-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 1.26.5 or newer):

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/other/intervals-icu/cmd/intervals-icu-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.

Sync your activities, wellness, calendar, workouts and gear into local SQLite, then search, run SQL, and compute fitness/form trends offline. Wraps the full intervals.icu REST API for live reads and writes, and adds analytics every existing MCP server and wrapper leaves on the table.

When to Use This CLI

Use when an agent or user needs to query intervals.icu training data programmatically: pulling activities, wellness, calendar and workouts, computing fitness/form, or comparing performance curves across seasons. Best when repeated queries make a local synced store worthwhile.

Anti-triggers

Do not use this CLI for:

• Do not use for real-time device streaming during a ride
• Do not use to edit another athlete's data without coach permissions
• Do not use as a replacement for the web UI's interactive charts

Unique Capabilities

These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API.

Local state that compounds

• sync — Sync your full activity, wellness, event, workout and gear history into a local SQLite database for offline search and SQL.

  Reach for this first so search/sql/form work offline without hammering the API on every query.

  intervals-icu-pp-cli sync --since 365d
  

• form — Compute CTL (fitness), ATL (fatigue) and TSB/form from your synced activity load and show the trend.

  Use to answer 'am I fresh enough to race / overreaching?' without opening the web UI.

  intervals-icu-pp-cli form --days 90 --json
  

• since — Show planned workouts, completed activities, and what was missed within a recent time window.

  Use for a quick 'what happened / what's coming' digest after time away.

  intervals-icu-pp-cli since 7d --json
  

Offline analysis

• curve compare — Compare best power/pace/HR curves between two date ranges from the local store.

  Use to quantify season-over-season fitness change for a given duration.

  intervals-icu-pp-cli curve compare --metric power --this 90d --vs 365d --json
  

• wellness trends — Correlate HRV / resting HR / sleep against training load over a window from the local store.

  Use to spot whether HRV/resting-HR are tracking accumulated fatigue.

  intervals-icu-pp-cli wellness trends --days 60 --json
  

• gear status — Roll up distance/time per gear component against reminders to flag what needs service or replacement.

  Use to catch chain/tyre/shoe replacement thresholds before they are overdue.

  intervals-icu-pp-cli gear status --json

Finding the right command

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

intervals-icu-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.

Recipes

Season-over-season power

intervals-icu-pp-cli curve compare --metric power --this 90d --vs 365d --json --select this.peaks,vs.peaks

Compare recent best power against a year ago, selecting just the peak arrays.

Fresh enough to race?

intervals-icu-pp-cli form --days 42 --json

Show six weeks of fitness/fatigue/form to judge taper readiness.

Catch up after a break

intervals-icu-pp-cli since 14d

Digest of planned, completed and missed sessions over two weeks.

Auth Setup

Run intervals-icu-pp-cli auth setup to print the URL and steps for getting a key (add --launch to open the URL). Then set:

export INTERVALS_ICU_API_KEY="<your-key>"

Or persist it in ~/.config/intervals-icu-pp-cli/config.toml.

Run intervals-icu-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:

  intervals-icu-pp-cli activity get mock-value --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

• Explicit retries — use --idempotent only when an already-existing create should count as success, and --ignore-missing only when a missing delete target should count as success

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:

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

Entries are stored locally at ~/.local/share/intervals-icu-pp-cli/feedback.jsonl. They are never POSTed unless INTERVALS_ICU_FEEDBACK_ENDPOINT is set AND either --send is passed or INTERVALS_ICU_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.

intervals-icu-pp-cli profile save briefing --json
intervals-icu-pp-cli --profile briefing activity get mock-value
intervals-icu-pp-cli profile list --json
intervals-icu-pp-cli profile show briefing
intervals-icu-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.

Exit Codes

Code	Meaning

5	API error (upstream issue)
7	Rate limited (wait and retry)
10	Config error

Argument Parsing

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

1. Empty, help, or --help → show intervals-icu-pp-cli --help output
2. Starts with install → ends with mcp → MCP installation; otherwise → see Prerequisites above
3. Anything else → Direct Use (execute as CLI command with --agent)

MCP Server Installation

1. Install the MCP server:

   go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/other/intervals-icu/cmd/intervals-icu-pp-mcp@latest
   

2. Register with Claude Code:

   claude mcp add intervals-icu-pp-mcp -- intervals-icu-pp-mcp
   

3. Verify: claude mcp list

Direct Use

1. Check if installed: which intervals-icu-pp-cli If not found, offer to install (see Prerequisites at the top of this skill).
2. Match the user query to the best command from the Unique Capabilities and Command Reference above.
3. Execute with the --agent flag:

   intervals-icu-pp-cli <command> [subcommand] [args] --agent
   

4. If ambiguous, drill into subcommand help: intervals-icu-pp-cli <command> --help.
