/install spotify
Description
Control Spotify playback on macOS. Play/pause, skip tracks, control volume, play artists/albums/playlists. Use when a user asks to play music, control Spotify, change songs, or adjust Spotify volume.
Usage Guidance
Install this only if you want your agent to control Spotify on macOS. For generic requests like 'play music', confirm Spotify is the intended service before letting the agent run playback or volume commands.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: spotify
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is benign. It uses standard macOS tools (`brew` for installing `shpotify` and `osascript` for direct Spotify control) to achieve its stated purpose of controlling Spotify playback. The instructions in SKILL.md are clear, directly related to the skill's functionality, and do not contain any prompt injection attempts or malicious commands beyond the scope of Spotify control.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
macOS AppleScript and web lookup of open.spotify.com IDs are proportionate to controlling the local Spotify desktop app and do not request broad local data access.
Install Mechanism
The metadata discloses a Homebrew install of the shpotify/spotify CLI and requires macOS with the spotify binary; no hidden installers or bundled executable files were present.
Instruction Scope
The trigger text includes generic phrases like 'play music' and 'change songs', which could invoke Spotify for a non-specific music request, but the runtime instructions stay within Spotify control.
Persistence & Privilege
No persistence, background workers, credential storage, privilege escalation, memory writes, or destructive file operations were found.
Purpose & Capability
The skill purpose is coherent: it documents Spotify playback controls, volume changes, status checks, and playing Spotify entities by URI using the Spotify CLI or AppleScript.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install spotify - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/spotify - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
