Drug Enforcement — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the drug-enforcement-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 drug-enforcement --cli-only

2. Verify: drug-enforcement-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 1.26.6 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/drug-enforcement/cmd/drug-enforcement-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.

A keyless CLI over the openFDA drug enforcement endpoint. The check, firm, recent, and reference commands wrap FDA recall search with pre-built queries; every result cites the recall number, prints the FDA class legend, and carries an enforcement-not-medical-advice disclaimer. A drug with no recall is reported as 'no recall records found', never as safe.

When Not to Use This CLI

Do not activate this CLI for requests that require creating, updating, deleting, publishing, commenting, upvoting, inviting, ordering, sending messages, booking, purchasing, or changing remote state. This printed CLI exposes read-only commands for inspection, export, sync, and analysis.

Unique Capabilities

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

Recall lookups

• check — Find active FDA recalls that mention a drug, optionally filtered to the most serious class.

  Reach for this when an agent needs the recall status of a specific medication by name.

  drug-enforcement-pp-cli check "ibuprofen" --class 1

• firm — List every recall attributed to a recalling firm or manufacturer.

  Use this to audit a manufacturer's recall history.

  drug-enforcement-pp-cli firm "Teva"

• recent — List recalls initiated in the last N days, most recent first.

  Use this for a periodic sweep of newly initiated drug recalls.

  drug-enforcement-pp-cli recent --days 30

• reference — Show full detail for a single recall number, with the FDA class legend.

  Use this to expand one recall's full facts after a check/firm/recent lookup surfaces its number.

  drug-enforcement-pp-cli reference D-0183-2023

Recipes

Serious recalls for a drug

drug-enforcement-pp-cli check "valsartan" --class 1 --json --select results.recall_number,results.reason_for_recall

Class I recalls for a drug, narrowed to the recall number and reason.

Manufacturer recall history

drug-enforcement-pp-cli firm "Teva" --json

Every recall attributed to a firm, as JSON.

Rolling 7-day sweep

drug-enforcement-pp-cli recent --days 7

Recalls initiated in the last week, most recent first.

Command Reference

enforcement — FDA drug recall enforcement records (openFDA /drug/enforcement.json)

• drug-enforcement-pp-cli enforcement — Search drug recall enforcement records with an openFDA Lucene search expression

Finding the right command

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

drug-enforcement-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

No authentication required.

Run drug-enforcement-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:

  drug-enforcement-pp-cli enforcement --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.
