Oura — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the oura-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 oura --cli-only
   

2. Verify: oura-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:

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/health/oura/cmd/oura-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.

Overview

The Oura API allows Oura users and partner applications to improve their user experience with Oura data. This document describes the Oura API Version 2 (V2), which is the only available integration point for Oura data. The previous V1 API has been sunset.

Getting Started

What is an API?

An API (Application Programming Interface) allows different software applications to communicate with each other. The Oura API enables you to access your Oura Ring data programmatically.

Quick Start Guide

1. Register an API Application and implement OAuth2
2. Make Your First API Call:

   curl -X GET https://api.ouraring.com/v2/usercollection/personal_info \
   -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
   

3. Explore Data Types:
   • Browse the available endpoints in this documentation to discover what data you can access
   • Each endpoint includes example requests and responses
4. Set Up Webhooks (Strongly Recommended):
   • Webhooks are the preferred way to consume Oura data
   • We have not had customers hit rate limits with webhooks properly implemented
   • Make a single request for historical data when a user first connects, then use webhooks for ongoing updates
   • Webhook notifications come approximately 30 seconds after data syncs from the mobile app
   • Set up webhooks to receive notifications when data changes

Common Questions

• Data Delay: Different data types sync at different times - sleep data requires users to open the Oura app, while daily activity and stress may sync in the background

Data Access

In order to access data, a registered API Application is required. API Applications are limited to 10 users before requiring approval from Oura. There is no limit once an application is approved. Additionally, Oura users must provide consent to share each data type an API Application has access to. All data access requests through the Oura API require Authentication. Additionally, we recommend that Oura users keep their mobile app updated to support API access for the latest data types.

Authentication

The Oura Cloud API supports authentication through the industry-standard OAuth2 protocol. For more information, see our Authentication instructions. Access tokens must be included in the request header as follows:

GET /v2/usercollection/personal_info HTTP/1.1
Host: api.ouraring.com
Authorization: Bearer <token>

Please note that personal access tokens were deprecated in December 2025 and are no longer available for use.

Oura HTTP Response Codes

Response Code	Description
200 OK	Successful Response
400 Query Parameter Validation Error	The request contains query parameters that are invalid or incorrectly formatted.
401 Unauthorized	Invalid or expired authentication token.
403 Forbidden	The requested resource requires additional permissions or the user's Oura subscription has expired.
429 Too Many Requests	Rate limit exceeded. See response headers for retry guidance.

Rate Limits

The API enforces rate limits at two layers to ensure fair access across all applications:

• a per-access-token limit, which throttles single-token floods, and
• a per-application limit, which caps the aggregate traffic across all of an application's end-user tokens so one fan-out app can't dominate shared capacity.

A request that trips either layer receives a 429 Too Many Requests. The X-RateLimit-Tier response header identifies which layer fired.

If your application regularly approaches rate limits, webhooks are strongly recommended — most applications that implement webhooks correctly do not encounter rate limit issues.

Rate Limit Response Headers

When a 429 Too Many Requests response is returned, five headers are included to guide retries. Prefer these over fixed-interval backoff:

• Retry-After — integer seconds to wait before retrying. RFC 7231-compliant; safe to feed directly into your client's backoff logic.
• X-RateLimit-Limit — the request ceiling for the current window.
• X-RateLimit-Window — the rolling window length in seconds that the ceiling applies to.
• X-RateLimit-Reset — Unix epoch (seconds) at which the window resets and quota is fully restored.
• X-RateLimit-Tier — identifies which limit was exceeded, useful when contacting support.

Unique Capabilities

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

• sync — Mirror Oura usercollection data into a local SQLite store for offline search and analysis
• search — FTS5 full-text search across locally synced Oura records
• analytics — Aggregate group-by and count queries over locally synced health data
• workflow — Chain multiple Oura API operations into one agent-friendly command

Finding the right command

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

oura-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.

Auth Setup

Run oura-pp-cli auth setup for the URL and steps to obtain a token (add --launch to open the URL). Then store it:

oura-pp-cli auth set-token YOUR_TOKEN_HERE

Or set OURA_OAUTH2 as an environment variable.

Run oura-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:

  oura-pp-cli sandbox multiple-daily-activity-documents --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:

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

Entries are stored locally at ~/.local/share/oura-pp-cli/feedback.jsonl. They are never POSTed unless OURA_FEEDBACK_ENDPOINT is set AND either --send is passed or OURA_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.

oura-pp-cli profile save briefing --json
oura-pp-cli --profile briefing sandbox multiple-daily-activity-documents
oura-pp-cli profile list --json
oura-pp-cli profile show briefing
oura-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
0	Success
2	Usage error (wrong arguments)
3	Resource not found
4	Authentication required
5	API error (upstream issue)
7	Rate limited (wait and retry)
10	Config error

Argument Parsing

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

1. Empty, help, or --help → show oura-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/health/oura/cmd/oura-pp-mcp@latest
   

2. Register with Claude Code:

   claude mcp add oura-pp-mcp -- oura-pp-mcp
   

3. Verify: claude mcp list

Direct Use

1. Check if installed: which oura-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:

   oura-pp-cli <command> [subcommand] [args] --agent
   

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