SKILL.md essential commands show --page usage, add a seq/jq page-loop
recipe driven by the pagination.page_count field of the JSON output
(with 429 Retry-After handling), and document that --json emits
movies/shows plus the normalized pagination object whose keys mirror
X-Pagination-* headers, degrading to {} when headers are absent; human
output notes the Page N of M footer rule. References state
per-invocation paging and the same degradation fallback. Evals replace
the header-only pagination case with an executable loop case and a
second-page trending case asserting --page, pagination keys, and array
preservation. README Quick Start and test-table rows updated to match.

Trakt — Media Discovery Signals in the Terminal
Why Install This Skill
Give your agent a reliable way to answer "what is everyone watching?" without confusing a current Trakt discovery ranking with a metadata catalog. The skill covers movies and shows that are trending, broadly popular, or anticipated, and produces JSON that can feed media automation.
Public discovery reads need an application Client ID, not a user login. OAuth boundaries, required headers, pagination, rate-limit behavior, and the difference between Trakt IDs and TMDb metadata are documented so workflows fail clearly instead of silently mixing services.
