What This Skill Does
A curl-based CLI wrapper for PrusaLink, the local API on Prusa 3D printers. Supports Digest auth or X-Api-Key and exposes fixed endpoints for status, job info, file upload, print start, and cancel.
Gives shell and script access to PrusaLink without a browser or third-party app, using only curl against your local network.
When to use it
- Check print job status from the terminal
- Upload a G-code file to the printer over local network
- Start or cancel a print job without opening the web UI
- Monitor printer state in a shell script
- Automate print workflows on a home server
