The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 19 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 1

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 4

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Use this skill to inspect what is playing, search music, and control playback on any Spotify Connect device.

    line 11
  2. Very specific:

    No device is connected to Spotify Connect → API returns NO_ACTIVE_DEVICE (-32070).

    line 24
  3. Very specific:

    If -32070 NO_ACTIVE_DEVICE: tell the user to open Spotify on a speaker/phone and retry.

    line 62
  4. Very specific:

    If -32011 unauthorized: token expired.

    line 64
  5. Very specific:

    If -32013 rate limited: respect retry_after from the response.

    line 65

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 19 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Spotify

Use this skill to inspect what is playing, search music, and control playback on any Spotify Connect device. It calls Spotify Web API directly (no CLI/TUI wrapper).

Use when

  • "what is playing right now?"
  • "play playlist X"
  • "next track"
  • "lower the volume" (with play/device_id to target a specific device)

Do not use when

  • No device is connected to Spotify Connect → API returns NO_ACTIVE_DEVICE (-32070). Open Spotify on a device first.
  • You need local audio synthesis (TTS, non-Spotify playback) → use a different skill.
  • You need library edits/playlist creation → possible via API but out of v0.1 scope.

Auth

Requires SPOTIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN (user scope). The refresh-token flow is managed by the operator (Spotify OAuth 2.0 PKCE or Authorization Code). This extension does not auto-refresh tokens. If a token expires, rotate it externally and update env.

Tools

status

Token presence and endpoint status. Use before issuing playback commands.

now_playing

Returns {is_playing, progress_ms, track, artists, album, uri, device}. 204/"no active device" → {is_playing:false, reason:"no active device"}.

search { query, types?, limit? }

  • types default track; accepts track,artist,album,playlist,show,episode,audiobook
  • limit 1..50 (default 10)

Returns raw /v1/search JSON. Useful as input for a follow-up play.

play { uri?, device_id? }

  • Without uri: resume playback.
  • spotify:track:... plays that track.
  • spotify:album:... / spotify:playlist:... / spotify:artist:... sets context_uri.
  • device_id optional: targets a specific device.

pause { device_id? } · next { device_id? } · previous { device_id? }

Direct playback controls.

Execution guidance

  • If -32070 NO_ACTIVE_DEVICE: tell the user to open Spotify on a speaker/phone and retry.
  • If -32011 unauthorized: token expired; operator must rotate it.
  • If -32013 rate limited: respect retry_after from the response.
  • Save device.id from now_playing for later calls to avoid additional discovery steps.
