Fireflies.ai — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the fireflies-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 fireflies --cli-only

2. Verify: fireflies-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):

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/productivity/fireflies/cmd/fireflies-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.

When to Use This CLI

Use fireflies-pp-cli when you need to mine your meeting history at scale: finding dropped action items, preparing for calls with full relationship context, tracking sentiment or topic trends over weeks, or searching across thousands of meeting sentences offline. Not a substitute for the Fireflies dashboard for day-to-day recording configuration or notetaking.

Unique Capabilities

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

Local state that compounds

• transcripts search — Full-text search across all synced meeting transcripts without consuming any API quota.

  Use to find every time a specific topic was mentioned across all meetings without burning rate-limited API calls.

  fireflies-pp-cli transcripts search "pricing objection" --agent --select id,title,dateString

• action-items list — Aggregate action items from all meetings in a date range — weekly commitment audit in one command.

  Use at the end of the week to harvest all commitments made in meetings and push to a TODO file.

  fireflies-pp-cli action-items list --from 7 --agent

• transcripts find — Find meetings by participant email, channel name, keyword, or date range — all client-side, no broken API date filters.

  Use when you need meetings with a specific person or channel — the API's title-based search fails when meeting names don't contain participant names.

  fireflies-pp-cli transcripts find --participant danijel.latin@verybigthings.com --from 30 --processed-only --agent

• transcripts status — Show PROCESSED / PROCESSING / FAILED status for recent meetings upfront — know before you fetch.

  Use when fetching same-day or next-morning meetings — avoids the loop of 'meeting not ready yet' failures.

  fireflies-pp-cli transcripts status --since 48h --agent

• topics list — Most frequent topics across all meetings in a date range — what is actually consuming meeting time.

  Use during quarterly planning to identify recurring themes before deciding where to invest time.

  fireflies-pp-cli topics list --from 30 --top 15 --agent

• digest — Aggregate view of all recent meetings: titles, gists, topics, and action items in one structured output.

  Use at session start or in a morning cron to orient on what happened yesterday before taking action.

  fireflies-pp-cli digest --since 24h --agent

• transcripts export — Export a transcript as markdown to a vault directory with auto-generated YYYY-MM-DD_title.md filename, or to an explicit file path with --output (-o) or its alias --file.

  Use after a client meeting to save the formatted transcript directly to the right project folder.

  fireflies-pp-cli transcripts export abc123 --vault ~/vaults/VBT/Projects/1_Active/Ryder/transcripts/ --agent
  fireflies-pp-cli transcripts export abc123 --file /tmp/dennis_1on1.md --agent

Person-centric intelligence

• person timeline — Chronological meeting history with a specific person — topics, action items, and talk ratio per meeting.

  Use before a QBR or renewal call to reconstruct the full relationship history without reading every transcript.

  fireflies-pp-cli person timeline danijel.latin@verybigthings.com --from 90 --agent

Finding the right command

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

fireflies-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.
