# Kalshi — Printing Press CLI

## Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the `kalshi-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 `$HOME/.local/bin` on macOS/Linux and `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\PrintingPress\bin` on Windows:
   ```bash
   npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install kalshi --cli-only
   ```
2. Verify: `kalshi-pp-cli --version`
3. Ensure the reported install directory is on `$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 1.26.3 or newer):

```bash
go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/payments/kalshi/cmd/kalshi-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

Reach for kalshi-pp-cli when an agent needs price-over-time or category-level analytics on Kalshi markets — the public API only returns current prices and flat positions, so historical and aggregated questions require the local snapshot store. Use it for daily portfolio reconciliation, signal discovery via correlation across markets, and safe scripting against read-only API credentials.
