Printing Press PolishSAFE

Every API has a secret identity. This finds it, absorbs every feature from every competing tool, then builds the GOAT CLI — designed for AI agents first, with SQLite sync, offline search, and compound insight commands.

The instruction file, verbatim from the audited commit — this is the text the model reads, and the surface the audit's instruction layer examines. Quoted here so you can judge it without cloning anything.

  Polish a generated CLI to pass verification and become publish-ready. Runs
  diagnostics (dogfood, verify, scorecard, go vet, gosec), automatically fixes
  all issues (verify failures, static-analysis findings, dead code,
  descriptions, README, MCP tool quality), reports the before/after delta, and
  offers to publish. Use after any /printing-press run, or on any CLI in
  $PRESS_LIBRARY/. Trigger phrases: "polish", "improve the CLI", "fix verify",
  "make it publish-ready", "clean up the CLI", "get this ready to ship".

# /printing-press-polish

Polish a generated CLI so it passes verification and is ready to publish.

The retro improves the Printing Press. Polish improves the generated CLI. This skill runs in a forked context (`context: fork`) so its diagnostic and fix loop doesn't pollute the caller — the diagnostic spam, fix iterations, and re-diagnose noise stay scoped to the polish session, and the caller receives a clean summary.

```bash
/printing-press-polish redfin
/printing-press-polish redfin-pp-cli
/printing-press-polish "$PRESS_LIBRARY/redfin"
```

## When to run

After any `/printing-press` generation, especially when:
- The shipcheck verdict is `ship-with-gaps`
- The verify pass rate is below 80%
- The scorecard is below 85
- You want the CLI publish-ready in one pass

Can also be run standalone on any CLI in `$PRESS_LIBRARY/`.
