Catapult OpenField — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the catapult-openfield-connect-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 catapult-openfield-connect --cli-only

2. Verify: catapult-openfield-connect-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). This installs into $GOPATH/bin (default $HOME/go/bin), so add that directory to $PATH instead:

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/health/catapult-openfield-connect/cmd/catapult-openfield-connect-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.

catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli syncs your OpenField data into a local SQLite store and unlocks computations the API cannot do alone: 28-day ACWR dashboards, personal velocity bests, session diffs, and positional benchmarks — all scriptable, pipeable, and agent-native. What used to require a custom R script now takes one command.

When to Use This CLI

Use this CLI for any Catapult OpenField data task: pulling session stats, checking squad ACWR, comparing matches, generating load reports, or giving an agent access to athlete GPS data without manual OpenField exports. It is the only CLI surface for OpenField; the alternative is the catapultR R package or the web UI.

Anti-triggers

Do not use this CLI for:

• Do not use this CLI to create, update, or delete anything in OpenField — it is read-only by design
• Do not use it for live in-session streaming telemetry; it reads completed activity data
• Do not use it for video or tactical analysis — OpenField carries GPS/accelerometer data only

Unique Capabilities

These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API.

Load intelligence that compounds

• acwr — Instant acute:chronic workload ratios for any athlete or the full squad, color-coded into safe (0.8-1.3), caution, and danger (>1.5) zones.

  Reach for this when asked who is at injury risk or for the morning workload check.

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli acwr --squad --metric total_player_load --flag-risk --agent

• report — One-command weekly summary — total Player Load, session count, ACWR, max velocity vs PB, monotony, strain, and risk flags — exportable as markdown or CSV.

  Reach for this when a coach briefing or weekly load summary is requested.

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli report --week --squad --format markdown --export ./week_load.md

• pb — Compares recent session values against each athlete's all-time or rolling personal best, with readiness % and 3-session trend arrows.

  Use before deciding who trains at full intensity today.

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli pb --metric max_vel --vs-peak --agent

• benchmark — Ranks any athlete against positional peers for a metric: percentile rank, squad median, and position median with outlier flags.

  Use after match debriefs to answer how an athlete compares to peers.

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli benchmark --metric total_distance --percentile --agent

Session analysis

• diff — Side-by-side comparison of two sessions (by ID, date, or last/prev) showing absolute and percentage change per metric and per athlete.

  Use to diagnose travel fatigue and fixture congestion between consecutive matches.

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli diff last prev --squad --metrics total_player_load,max_vel --agent

• rtp — Tracks an injured athlete's load progression session-by-session as a percentage of squad average or a pre-injury baseline window.

  Use when managing return-to-play decisions to give medical staff quantitative progression data.

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli rtp --athlete top --target-metric total_player_load --vs-squad --threshold 85 --agent

• heatmap — Renders an athlete-by-period intensity matrix for a session — ANSI heatmap on a terminal, JSON matrix for agents — surfacing where fatigue compounded.

  Use after matches to diagnose second-half performance drops.

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli heatmap --activity last --metric total_player_load --json

Freshness Contract

This printed CLI owns bounded freshness only for registered store-backed read command paths. In --data-source auto mode, those paths check sync_state and may run a bounded refresh before reading local data. --data-source local never refreshes. --data-source live reads the API and does not mutate the local store. Set CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_NO_AUTO_REFRESH=1 to skip the freshness hook without changing source selection.

Covered paths:

• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli activities
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli activities list
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli annotations
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli athletes
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli athletes list
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli parameters
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli sensor
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli teams
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli venues
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli venues list
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli customer
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli customer get
• catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli customer settings

When JSON output uses the generated provenance envelope, freshness metadata appears at meta.freshness. Treat it as current-cache freshness for the covered command path, not a guarantee of complete historical backfill or API-specific enrichment.

Finding the right command

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

catapult-openfield-connect-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.

Recipes

Morning ACWR check for the full squad

catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli acwr --squad --flag-risk --agent --select athlete_name,acwr,risk_zone

Run before every training session to see who is in the caution or danger zone.

Post-session stats grouped by athlete

catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli stats --parameters total_player_load,total_distance,max_vel --group-by athlete --json

The primary data pull after every session.

Compare the last two matches

catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli diff last prev --squad --metrics total_player_load,max_vel --agent --select athlete_name,metric,delta_pct

Percentage change per athlete per metric between matches; --select keeps agent context tight.

Find velocity metric slugs

catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli search "velocity" --type parameters --limit 10

Discover exact slugs before building a stats query.

Weekly report to markdown

catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli report --week --squad --format markdown --export ./week12_load.md

Paste directly into the coach briefing doc.

Auth Setup

OpenField Connect accepts a long-lived API token (create one in OpenField under API Tokens) sent as a Bearer header. Set CATAPULT_TOKEN in your environment or run auth set-token. Regional hosts differ: this CLI defaults to the Americas host (us.catapultsports.com); override base_url in config for APAC/EMEA tenants.

Run catapult-openfield-connect-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:

  catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli activities list --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

• Read-only — do not use this CLI for create, update, delete, publish, comment, upvote, invite, order, send, or other mutating requests

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.

Paths and state

Agents should treat the CLI's path resolver as part of the runtime contract:

• Use --home <dir> for one invocation, or set CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_HOME=<dir> to relocate all four path kinds under one root.

• Use per-kind env vars only when a specific kind must diverge: CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_CONFIG_DIR, CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_DATA_DIR, CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_STATE_DIR, CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_CACHE_DIR.

• Resolution order is per-kind env var, --home, CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_HOME, XDG (XDG_CONFIG_HOME, XDG_DATA_HOME, XDG_STATE_HOME, XDG_CACHE_HOME), then platform defaults.

• config contains settings like config.toml and profiles. data contains credentials.toml, data.db, cookies, and auth sidecars. state contains persisted queries, jobs, and teach.log. cache contains regenerable HTTP/cache files.

• Stored secrets live in credentials.toml under the data dir. Existing legacy config.toml secrets are read for compatibility and leave config.toml on the first auth write.

• Run catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli doctor --fail-on warn to surface path and credential-location warnings. agent-context exposes a schema v4 paths block for agents that need the resolved dirs.

• For MCP, pass relocation through the MCP host config. The MCP binary does not inherit CLI flags:

  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "catapult-openfield-connect": {
        "command": "catapult-openfield-connect-pp-mcp",
        "env": {
          "CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_HOME": "/srv/catapult-openfield-connect"
        }
      }
    }
  }

Fleet precedence: an inherited per-kind env var overrides an explicit --home for that kind. Use CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_HOME or per-kind vars as durable fleet levers, and use --home only for a single invocation. Relocation is not reversible by unsetting env vars; move files manually before clearing CATAPULT_OPENFIELD_CONNECT_HOME, or doctor will not find credentials left under the former root.

Automatic learning

This CLI ships a self-capturing learning loop. The CLI does its own bookkeeping: every invocation is journaled locally, a failed flag followed by a corrected retry auto-derives a flag_alias candidate, and a teach on a query family without a playbook auto-synthesizes a playbook_candidate from the session's journal. Your job is judgment only: recall first, act on surfaced candidates, teach the final answer, playbook amend when you observe a correction. You never record failures by hand.

Step 1: recall before any discovery

Before list/search/drill commands on a new user question, run:

catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli recall "<user's question>" --agent

The response envelope:

{
  "query": "...",
  "normalized": "<normalized form>",
  "query_entities": ["..."],
  "found": true | false,
  "match_score": 0.0,
  "results": [
    { "resource_id": "...", "resource_type": "...", "venue": "...",
      "confidence": 2, "entity_match": "exact|partial|unknown",
      "source": "taught|preseed|pattern", "warnings": ["..."] }
  ],
  "mismatches": [ /* only when --debug-mismatches */ ],
  "warnings": [ /* top-level */ ],
  "candidates": [
    { "id": 12, "class": "flag_alias | playbook_candidate",
      "summary": "...", "sightings": 3, "last_seen": "...",
      "rationale": "...",
      "next_action": ["<trial command>", "catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli learnings confirm 12"] }
  ],
  "playbook": {
    "query_family": "...",
    "playbook": {
      "steps": [ { "cmd": "<command with {slot} substitution>", "purpose": "..." } ],
      "entity_slots": ["$ENTITY"],
      "expected_tool_calls": 3
    },
    "slots_resolved": { "$ENTITY": { "token": "<live token>", "canonical": "<canonical>" } },
    "notes": "<workarounds + gotchas for this query family>"
  },
  "notes": "<duplicate surface for non-playbook callers>"
}

Empty-store short-circuit: if the store has no learnings, playbooks, or candidates yet (recall finds nothing and learnings list and learnings candidates are both empty), skip recall for the rest of this session instead of taxing every query; resume recall-first once something has been taught.

Step 2: decision tree

Read candidates, playbook, notes, results[0], and warnings in that order:

if Candidates present (warnings include "candidates_present"):
    -> candidates are try-then-confirm, never facts. Follow each candidate's
       two-step next_action verbatim: run the trial command first, then run
       `learnings confirm <id>` only after the trial verified the behavior.
       Reject a wrong candidate with `learnings reject <id>`.
    -> NEVER re-teach something recall surfaced as a candidate; confirm or
       reject that candidate instead of teaching a duplicate.
    -> candidates ride alongside playbooks and resource hits, not instead of
       them; continue with the branches below after acting on them.

if Playbook present:
    -> READ Playbook.notes verbatim FIRST (workarounds + gotchas the CLI surface doesn't expose)
    -> replay Playbook.steps in order, substituting Playbook.slots_resolved entries
       for the entity slot tokens. If a step's slot is unresolved, fall back to
       discovery for that step only.
    -> the Playbook's expected_tool_calls is a budget; if you find yourself running
       materially more, record the divergence via `catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli playbook amend`
       at end-of-session.

elif Notes present (no Playbook):
    -> read Notes verbatim before any discovery step; they carry known gotchas
       for this query family even when no structured choreography exists yet.

elif Found AND Results[0].EntityMatch == "exact" AND Results[0].Confidence >= 2:
    -> skip discovery; fetch live data for Results[*].ResourceID in parallel

elif Found AND Results[0].EntityMatch == "partial":
    -> candidate hint, NOT a hit; read the resource title to validate before trusting

elif (any row in Mismatches[] when --debug-mismatches was passed):
    -> treat as cold start; the stored learning is for a different entity
       (different canonical resolved from query_entities)

else:  // Found == false, no playbook, no notes
    -> cold start; run discovery normally; teach the answer afterward (Step 4).
       If the family has no playbook yet, that teach auto-synthesizes a
       playbook candidate from this session's journal - you do not need to
       record one by hand.

Playbook and Notes are orthogonal to the per-resource path. A recall response can carry both a Playbook AND a Results[] hit - use both: the Playbook tells you which choreography to run; the resource hits short-circuit specific steps. Default to skipping mismatches; pass --debug-mismatches only when investigating cold-start surprises.

Candidate judgment details: learnings confirm <id> prints the candidate's full payload before materializing it - check that the printed payload matches the behavior you verified. learnings reject <id> tombstones the derivation signature so the same candidate does not resurface. The envelope carries only the few candidates worth acting on now; catapult-openfield-connect-pp-cli learnings candidates lists the full open set.

Graceful degradation: if learnings confirm is an unknown command, you are driving an older binary - ignore the candidates guidance and follow the rest of the protocol.
