Wavespeed — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the wavespeed-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:

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

2. Verify: wavespeed-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 1.26.5 or newer):

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/ai/wavespeed/cmd/wavespeed-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.

Novel commands / Workflows (D2C content production)

WaveSpeed ships a content-production layer for D2C brands posting to social (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, X). It is produce-only: it emits post-ready files plus a per-platform manifest.json a downstream social-posting tool consumes. Every novel command emits a uniform agent envelope (command, results, suggested_next, recommended_action, cost_spent, library_record_errors, partial_failure) and supports --dry-run to preview planned files, costs, and merged params without spending.

Novel commands record each generation to a local library DB by default; pass --no-record to opt out. Plain run does the inverse — pass --record to record it. A library write failure is logged and surfaced in library_record_errors; it never fails a successful generation.

Plan

• wavespeed-pp-cli plan brief-to-shotlist --prompt "<brief>" --platforms instagram,tiktok — turn a brief into a structured shotlist. Hybrid planner: --planner deterministic|llm|auto (default auto), with an LLM fallback via --planner-model <id>. --aspects and --from-file are also accepted.
• wavespeed-pp-cli plan model-pick <intent> — recommend a model for an intent from the live catalog.
• wavespeed-pp-cli plan cost-estimate <shotlist.json> — price a shotlist against /model/pricing and your balance.

Produce

• wavespeed-pp-cli pack --concept "<concept>" --platforms instagram,tiktok — multi-platform pack at stable packs/<slug>/<platform>/ paths with a per-platform manifest. Flags: --aspects, --concurrency, --max-cost, --on-failure abort|continue, --history, --clean, --strict-video, --model, --brand, --seed, --out-dir.
• wavespeed-pp-cli batch --from shots.csv --max-cost 5.00 — submit many prompts from CSV/JSON. --fail-tolerant (default fail-fast), --concurrency, --model, --brand.
• wavespeed-pp-cli variants --base shotlist.json --vary seed --count 4 — controlled sweep (--vary seed|style|model, --values).
• wavespeed-pp-cli compose --steps "text->image,image->video" --prompt "..." --models m1,m2 — explicit step pipeline; a failed step rolls back later steps.

Refine

• wavespeed-pp-cli aspects <image> --platforms instagram,tiktok — re-frame one image to target ratios (--aspects, --outpaint, --prompt, --model).
• wavespeed-pp-cli restyle <image> --brand helm — apply a brand/style (--style, --model).

Library

• wavespeed-pp-cli library list --brand helm --platform instagram --since 30d — list recorded generations (--model, --tag, --limit).
• wavespeed-pp-cli library search "<query>" — FTS5 prompt search (--limit).
• wavespeed-pp-cli library show <id> — one generation with its tags.
• wavespeed-pp-cli library tag <id> --add hero --remove draft — tag management.
• wavespeed-pp-cli library export <dir> — export matching generations as JSON.
• wavespeed-pp-cli library cost-report --since 30d --group-by brand — cost rollup (--group-by brand|model|platform|tag).

QA

• wavespeed-pp-cli qa preflight <shotlist.json> — pass/warn/fail checks (balance vs cost, model availability, prompt safety, platform request-shape, brand coverage).

Brand

• wavespeed-pp-cli brand init <name> --from-file brand.json — create a profile (or use field flags: --style-anchors, --negative, --palette, --voice, --models, --platforms). Non-interactive by default.
• wavespeed-pp-cli brand show <name>, brand list, brand apply <name> (sets the active brand in wavespeed.json), brand edit <name>.

A full agent chain: brand apply → plan brief-to-shotlist → plan cost-estimate → qa preflight → pack, piping JSON between steps.

Finding the right command

When you know what you want to do but not which command does it, ask the CLI directly:

wavespeed-pp-cli which "<capability in your own words>"

which resolves a natural-language capability query to the best matching command from this CLI's curated feature index. Exit code 0 means at least one match; exit code 2 means no confident match — fall back to --help or use a narrower query.

Auth Setup

Run wavespeed-pp-cli auth setup to print the URL and steps for getting a key (add --launch to open the URL). Then set:

export WAVESPEED_API_KEY="<your-key>"

Or persist it in ~/.config/wavespeed-pp-cli/config.toml.

Run wavespeed-pp-cli doctor to verify setup.

Agent Mode

Add --agent to any command. Expands to: --json --compact --no-input --no-color --yes.

• Pipeable — JSON on stdout, errors on stderr

• Filterable — --select keeps a subset of fields. Dotted paths descend into nested structures; arrays traverse element-wise. Critical for keeping context small on verbose APIs:

  wavespeed-pp-cli billings --agent --select id,name,status
  

• Previewable — --dry-run shows the request without sending

• Offline-friendly — sync/search commands can use the local SQLite store when available

• Non-interactive — never prompts, every input is a flag

• Explicit retries — use --idempotent only when an already-existing create should count as success

Response envelope

Commands that read from the local store or the API wrap output in a provenance envelope:

{
  "meta": {"source": "live" | "local", "synced_at": "...", "reason": "..."},
  "results": <data>
}

Parse .results for data and .meta.source to know whether it's live or local. A human-readable N results (live) summary is printed to stderr only when stdout is a terminal AND no machine-format flag (--json, --csv, --compact, --quiet, --plain, --select) is set — piped/agent consumers and explicit-format runs get pure JSON on stdout.

Agent Feedback

When you (or the agent) notice something off about this CLI, record it:

wavespeed-pp-cli feedback "the --since flag is inclusive but docs say exclusive"
wavespeed-pp-cli feedback --stdin < notes.txt
wavespeed-pp-cli feedback list --json --limit 10

Entries are stored locally at ~/.local/share/wavespeed-pp-cli/feedback.jsonl. They are never POSTed unless WAVESPEED_FEEDBACK_ENDPOINT is set AND either --send is passed or WAVESPEED_FEEDBACK_AUTO_SEND=true. Default behavior is local-only.

Write what surprised you, not a bug report. Short, specific, one line: that is the part that compounds.

Output Delivery

Every command accepts --deliver <sink>. The output goes to the named sink in addition to (or instead of) stdout, so agents can route command results without hand-piping. Three sinks are supported:

Unknown schemes are refused with a structured error naming the supported set. Webhook failures return non-zero and log the URL + HTTP status on stderr.

Named Profiles

A profile is a saved set of flag values, reused across invocations. Use it when a scheduled agent calls the same command every run with the same configuration - HeyGen's "Beacon" pattern.

wavespeed-pp-cli profile save briefing --json
wavespeed-pp-cli --profile briefing billings
wavespeed-pp-cli profile list --json
wavespeed-pp-cli profile show briefing
wavespeed-pp-cli profile delete briefing --yes

Explicit flags always win over profile values; profile values win over defaults. agent-context lists all available profiles under available_profiles so introspecting agents discover them at runtime.

Exit Codes

Argument Parsing

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

1. Empty, help, or --help → show wavespeed-pp-cli --help output
2. Starts with install → ends with mcp → MCP installation; otherwise → see Prerequisites above
3. Anything else → Direct Use (execute as CLI command with --agent)

MCP Server Installation

1. Install the MCP server:

   go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/ai/wavespeed/cmd/wavespeed-pp-mcp@latest
   

2. Register with Claude Code:

   claude mcp add wavespeed-pp-mcp -- wavespeed-pp-mcp
   

3. Verify: claude mcp list

Direct Use

1. Check if installed: which wavespeed-pp-cli If not found, offer to install (see Prerequisites at the top of this skill).
2. Match the user query to the best command from the Unique Capabilities and Command Reference above.
3. Execute with the --agent flag:

   wavespeed-pp-cli <command> [subcommand] [args] --agent
   

4. If ambiguous, drill into subcommand help: wavespeed-pp-cli <command> --help.
