What it does

Spotify is an agent skill from Anil-matcha/awesome-muse-connectors. Work with Spotify: read your profile, playlists, top tracks and artists, search the catalog, and (with confirmation) create playlists, add tracks, and save tracks to your library. Trigger phrases: spotify, my playlists, my top tracks, top artists, save track, search spotify.

Its SKILL.md is about 920 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `bin/spotify.py`).

It works with Spotify. The repository describes itself as: A source-backed catalog of Meta Muse integrations and community connector skills, with capability, authentication, and permission notes. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Phrases: spotify

Example prompts

“/spotify”

Requirements

Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

All writes need confirmation on every call. playlist-create, playlist-add, and save-track refuse unless --confirm matches the exact string…
playlist-create defaults to a private playlist; add --public only when the user explicitly asks for a public one.
Search and top-lists are read-only and need no confirmation.
Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/spotify.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d6dc5d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Spotify loads about 921 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 71 tokens; SKILL.md has 285 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~71
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~921

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Spotify

Purpose

Work with the Spotify Web API: read the current user's profile, playlists, playlist tracks, and top tracks/artists; search the Spotify catalog; and (each behind an exact-match confirmation) create playlists, add tracks to playlists, and save tracks to the user's library. Reach for this when the user wants to look at or curate their Spotify content from chat.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/spotify.py:

bash

bin/spotify.py auth                                # verify the OAuth token
bin/spotify.py me                                  # current user's profile
bin/spotify.py playlists --limit 50                # list the user's playlists
bin/spotify.py playlist-tracks --playlist-id PID   # tracks in a playlist
bin/spotify.py top-tracks --limit 10               # user's top tracks
bin/spotify.py top-artists --limit 10              # user's top artists
bin/spotify.py search --query "khruangbin"          # search the catalog
bin/spotify.py playlist-create --name "Focus" \
    --confirm 'create playlist "Focus"'            # new playlist (private unless --public)
bin/spotify.py playlist-add --playlist-id PID \
    --uris "spotify:track:AAA,spotify:track:BBB" \
    --confirm "add 2 track(s) to playlist PID"     # append tracks
bin/spotify.py save-track --ids "AAA,BBB" \
    --confirm "save track(s) AAA,BBB to your library"  # save to Liked Songs

--time-range on the top commands takes short_term, medium_term (default), or long_term.

Auth

Provider id: spotify (credential is collected as custom.spotify)
Collection: OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code flow via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access); the runtime performs the token exchange/refresh and hands the CLI a fresh Bearer token
Required scopes: user-read-private, user-read-email, playlist-read-private, playlist-modify-private, playlist-modify-public, user-top-read, user-library-read, user-library-modify. Honesty flag: this scope list is taken from Spotify's public Web API docs and has not been verified in a live flow; if a command returns 403, re-check the scopes granted at approval.
Allowed hosts: api.spotify.com
Status check: bin/spotify.py auth

Operating Rules

All writes need confirmation on every call. playlist-create, playlist-add, and save-track refuse unless --confirm matches the exact string the CLI echoes (it names the playlist, track IDs, or library target). This is stricter than the standing first-use-only rule, chosen because these writes touch the user's personal library and are visible to other people when public.
playlist-create defaults to a private playlist; add --public only when the user explicitly asks for a public one.
Search and top-lists are read-only and need no confirmation.
Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/spotify.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token.
