"Why click 17 times when one command does the job?" – Owen 🐸


🎯 What Does This Skill Do?

Home Music combines Spotify + Airfoil into magical music scenes. One command – and the right playlist plays on the right speakers at the perfect volume.

Imagine:

  • You wake up → home-music morning → Gentle tunes in the bathroom
  • Friends arrive → home-music party → All speakers blasting rock
  • Time to relax → home-music chill → Lounge vibes everywhere
  • Done for the day → home-music off → Silence. Peace. Serenity.

🎨 Custom Playlists & Scenes

Changing Playlists

Open home-music.sh and find the playlist configuration:

# === PLAYLIST CONFIGURATION ===
PLAYLIST_MORNING="spotify:playlist:19n65kQ5NEKgkvSAla5IF6"
PLAYLIST_PARTY="spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DXaXB8fQg7xif"
PLAYLIST_CHILL="spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DWTwnEm1IYyoj"

How to find Playlist URIs:

  1. Right-click on a playlist in Spotify
  2. "Share" → "Copy Spotify URI"
  3. Or copy the URL and extract the /playlist/ part

Adding a New Scene

Add a new case in the main block:

# In home-music.sh after the "scene_chill" function:

scene_workout() {
    echo "💪 Starting Workout scene..."
    airfoil_set_source_spotify
    airfoil_connect "Sonos Move"
    sleep 0.5
    airfoil_volume "Sonos Move" 0.8
    "$SPOTIFY_CMD" play "spotify:playlist:YOUR_WORKOUT_PLAYLIST"
    "$SPOTIFY_CMD" volume 100
    echo "✅ Workout: Sonos Move @ 80%, Pump it up!"
}

# And in the case block:
    workout)
        scene_workout
        ;;

Available Speakers

ALL_SPEAKERS=("Computer" "Andy's M5 Macbook" "Sonos Move" "Living Room TV")

You can add any AirPlay speaker – they just need to be visible in Airfoil.


🐛 Troubleshooting

❌ "Speaker won't connect"

Check 1: Is Airfoil running?

pgrep -x Airfoil || echo "Airfoil is not running!"

Check 2: Is the speaker on the network?

  • Open the Airfoil app
  • Check if the speaker appears in the list
  • Try connecting manually

Check 3: Is the name exactly correct?

  • Speaker names are case-sensitive!
  • Open Airfoil and copy the exact name

❌ "No sound"

Check 1: Is Spotify playing?

~/clawd/skills/spotify-applescript/spotify.sh status

Check 2: Is the Airfoil source correct?

  • Open Airfoil
  • Check if "Spotify" is selected as the audio source
  • If not: Click "Source" → Select Spotify

Check 3: Speaker volume?

# Manually check volume
osascript -e 'tell application "Airfoil" to get volume of (first speaker whose name is "Sonos Move")'

❌ "Spotify won't start"

Is Spotify open?

pgrep -x Spotify || open -a Spotify

Is spotify-applescript installed?

ls ~/clawd/skills/spotify-applescript/spotify.sh

❌ "Permission denied"

chmod +x ~/clawd/skills/home-music/home-music.sh

🔊 Direct Airfoil Commands

If you want to control Airfoil manually:

# Connect a speaker
osascript -e 'tell application "Airfoil" to connect to (first speaker whose name is "Sonos Move")'

# Set speaker volume (0.0 - 1.0)
osascript -e 'tell application "Airfoil" to set (volume of (first speaker whose name is "Sonos Move")) to 0.5'

# Disconnect a speaker
osascript -e 'tell application "Airfoil" to disconnect from (first speaker whose name is "Sonos Move")'

# List connected speakers
osascript -e 'tell application "Airfoil" to get name of every speaker whose connected is true'

# Set audio source
osascript -e 'tell application "Airfoil"
    set theSource to (first application source whose name contains "Spotify")
    set current audio source to theSource
end tell'

💡 Pro Tips

  1. Set aliases for even faster access:

    alias mm="home-music morning"
    alias mp="home-music party"
    alias mc="home-music chill"
    alias mo="home-music off"
    
  2. Use with Clawdbot:

    "Hey, start party mode" "Put on some chill music" "Stop the music"

  3. Combine scenes: Create a dinner scene with a jazz playlist at 25% – perfect for guests!

Usage Guidance
Install only if you are comfortable letting this skill automate Spotify and Airfoil on your Mac. Before use, review the shell script, fix the hardcoded Spotify helper path, verify speaker names and volume levels, and only run the sudo symlink command if you want a global home-music command.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: home-music-enhanced Version: 1.1.0 The skill is a legitimate automation tool for macOS designed to coordinate Spotify playback and Airfoil speaker routing. It uses AppleScript (osascript) to interact with local applications as described in the documentation. No evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection was found in home-music.sh or SKILL.md.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The capability is coherent with the stated purpose: it starts Spotify playlists and changes Airfoil speaker routing/volume. This is expected for a whole-house music skill, but it can visibly affect the local environment.
Instruction Scope
The script uses a fixed scene dispatcher for named actions such as morning, party, chill, off, and status. The provided artifacts do not show hidden prompt overrides, broad user-controlled command execution, or background autonomous behavior.
Install Mechanism
Installation is manual and includes creating a persistent global command via a sudo symlink. This is user-directed and understandable, but users should review the script and paths before running the install commands.
Credentials
Using AppleScript to control Airfoil and invoking a Spotify helper are proportionate to the skill's purpose, but they can start audio, connect speakers, and adjust volume across the home.
Persistence & Privilege
No daemon, autostart, or hidden persistence is shown. The main persistent change is the documented /usr/local/bin symlink, which requires elevated privilege to create.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install home-music-enhanced
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /home-music-enhanced
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
