Use this skill for service operations only. DO NOT use this skill for CLI implementation lifecycle work such as creating, testing, updating, troubleshooting, validating, removing, or documenting the CLI tool itself; delegate those tasks to cli-tool-expert. MANDATORY: Execute AuctionZip operations using the `auctionzip` CLI tool. Search AuctionZip auction lots and read a lot's full detail (current bid, buyer's premium, close time, status, shipping/pickup terms) through a Cloudflare-cleared browser session. Invaluable-powered; cross-lists with LiveAuctioneers. Triggers: auctionzip, auctionzip cli, auctionzip search, auctionzip lot, auctionzip get

| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Authenticate (one-time headed Cloudflare clear) | auctionzip auth login |
| Check auth / Cloudflare clearance | auctionzip auth status |
| Search lots by keyword | auctionzip search "lego" --limit 10 --table |
| Get one lot's full detail | auctionzip get "<lot-url-or-slug_ref>" --table |
| Fresh read (bypass cache) | auctionzip --no-cache get "<lot-url>" |
Auth model: auctionzip.com hard-blocks headless browsers at Cloudflare. auth login runs a one-time headed pass that mints a cf_clearance cookie in the persistent profile; search/get reuse that session. No AuctionZip account is required to read lots. If a command reports a Cloudflare block, re-run auctionzip auth login --force.
