## From README

/printing-press-score Score generated CLIs against the Steinberger bar. Supports rescoring, scoring by name/path, and comparing two CLIs. Prerequisites Go 1.26.6 or newer installed cli-printing-press binary on PATH ( with go github.com/mvanhorn/cli-printing-press/v4/cmd/cli-printing-press@latest) Step 0: Before any other commands, run the contract to verify the cli-printing-press binary is on PATH and initialize scope variables: After running the contract, capture the PRINTINGPRESSBIN= line from stdout. Every subsequent cli-printing-press ... invocation in this skill must use that absolute path (substitute the value, not the literal $PRINTINGPRESSBIN token) — export PATH above only affects the single Bash tool call it runs in, so later calls open a fresh shell where bare cli-printing-press resolves against the user's default PATH and a stale global can shadow the local build. After capturing the binary path, check binary version compatibility.
