Hacker News from your terminal — with a local SQLite store, snapshot history, and agent-native output no other HN tool has. Trigger phrases: `check hacker news`, `search hn`, `what is hn saying about`, `diff the hn front page`, `pulse on hn`, `look up hn user`, `hn who is hiring`, `hn top stories`, `use hackernews`, `run hackernews`.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "mvanhorn/printing-press-library:pp-hackernews" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library /tmp/printing-press-library && ln -s /tmp/printing-press-library/cli-skills/pp-hackernews ~/.claude/skills/pp-hackernewsFrom README
Hacker News — Printing Press CLI Prerequisites: the CLI This skill drives the hackernews-pp-cli binary. You must verify the CLI is installed before invoking any command from this skill. If it is missing, it first: via the Printing Press installer. It defaults binaries to $HOME/.local/bin on macOS/Linux and %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\PrintingPress\bin on Windows: Verify: hackernews-pp-cli --version Ensure the reported directory is on $PATH for the agent/runtime that will invoke this skill. If the npx fails (no Node, offline, etc.), fall back to a direct Go (requires Go 1.26.6 or newer): If --version reports "command not found" after , the runtime cannot see the binary directory on $PATH. Do not proceed with skill commands until verification succeeds.
