From the project READMETikTok Shop - Printing Press Safe v1
Prerequisites: Install the CLI
This skill drives the tiktok-shop-pp-cli binary. You must verify the CLI is installed before invoking any command from this skill. If it is missing, install it first:
- Install via the Printing Press installer. It defaults binaries to
$HOME/.local/binon macOS/Linux and%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\PrintingPress\binon Windows:npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install tiktok-shop --cli-only - Verify:
tiktok-shop-pp-cli --version - Ensure the reported install directory is on
$PATHfor 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/commerce/tiktok-shop/cmd/tiktok-shop-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.

Deferred:
tiktok-shop-pp-cli inventory update- Official endpoint is confirmed, but safe v1 defers execution until idempotency and no-retry mutation behavior are designed.
Auth Setup
Set values obtained through official TikTok Shop Partner Center flows. Never hardcode secrets.
export TIKTOK_SHOP_APP_KEY="<from Partner Center>"
export TIKTOK_SHOP_APP_SECRET="<from Partner Center>"
export TIKTOK_SHOP_ACCESS_TOKEN="<from official token exchange>"
export TIKTOK_SHOP_REFRESH_TOKEN="<from official token exchange>"
export TIKTOK_SHOP_SHOP_CIPHER="<from shops info>"
Optional overrides:
export TIKTOK_SHOP_CONFIG="$HOME/.config/tiktok-shop-pp-cli/config.toml"
export TIKTOK_SHOP_BASE_URL="https://open-api.tiktokglobalshop.com"
export TIKTOK_SHOP_AUTH_BASE_URL="https://auth.tiktok-shops.com"
Run:
tiktok-shop-pp-cli doctor --json
Token exchange/refresh do not print token values. Add --save only when you intentionally want the returned token bundle persisted to ~/.config/tiktok-shop-pp-cli/config.toml with 0600 permissions.
Agent Mode
Add --agent to any command. It expands to --json --compact --no-input --no-color --yes.
Agent-safe examples:
tiktok-shop-pp-cli doctor --agent
tiktok-shop-pp-cli shops info --agent --dry-run
tiktok-shop-pp-cli which --agent
tiktok-shop-pp-cli inventory update --agent
Safety Rules
- Treat orders, fulfillment, returns, and buyer identifiers as PII.
- Use
shops infoto obtainshop_cipher; do not invent or decrypt shop ciphers. - Use
--dry-runbefore first live calls to inspect signed request shape without transmitting it. - Do not retry mutations. Safe v1 only executes read commands and auth token calls.
- Do not use unofficial endpoints, SDK guesses, blog posts, or copied Postman collections for missing API behavior.
