AgentPool

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the agentpool-pp-cli binary. You must verify the CLI is installed before invoking any command from this skill. If it is missing, install it first:

Install via the Printing Press installer:

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

Verify: agentpool-pp-cli --version
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 1.26.6 or newer):

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/developer-tools/agentpool/cmd/agentpool-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 this when you want a Printing Press catalog entry for AgentPool but still want the official AgentPool CLI to remain the source of truth. This wrapper checks installation, prints onboarding guidance, reads usage/capacity summaries through the official CLI, and delegates to agentpool.

Do not treat this as a separate AgentPool implementation. It does not choose providers, parse usage, inspect SQLite state, run MCP itself, rank models, merge branches, push code, store credentials, or add provider=auto.

Command Reference

agentpool-pp-cli install - Show the official install and upgrade flow for agentpool-cli.
agentpool-pp-cli doctor - Delegate to agentpool doctor --privacy.
agentpool-pp-cli usage - Delegate to agentpool usage-summary --json.
agentpool-pp-cli skill - Print official AgentPool agent guidance.
agentpool-pp-cli mcp-config - Delegate MCP host config generation to AgentPool.
agentpool-pp-cli exec - Pass arguments through to the official agentpool binary.

Recipes

Check the local setup:

agentpool-pp-cli doctor

Read cached usage through the official AgentPool CLI:

agentpool-pp-cli usage

Print the current AgentPool agent guidance:

agentpool-pp-cli skill

Generate MCP host configuration through the official AgentPool CLI:

agentpool-pp-cli mcp-config

Pass a command through unchanged:

agentpool-pp-cli exec preferences

Safety

The wrapper should stay boring. If a future change adds provider adapters, usage parsers, session state, MCP server code, or policy logic here, reject it and move that behavior to the official AgentPool CLI instead.
