Play audio files, record from microphone, take photos. An agent skill from mikeyobrien/rho.

  • SKILL.md covers Audio Playback, Microphone Recording, Camera Photo and Camera info
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Media is an agent skill from mikeyobrien/rho. Play audio files, record from microphone, take photos. Use for media playback, voice recording, or camera capture.

Its SKILL.md is about 290 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: An AI agent that stays running, remembers across sessions, and checks in on its own. macOS, Linux, Android. Built on Pi. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Voice recording

Example prompts

  • “/media”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 073a3ee. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    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

Media loads about 286 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 30 tokens; SKILL.md has 15 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~30
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~286

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.
