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


šŸŽÆ 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.

šŸ“‹ Dependencies

  • Connected speakers

šŸ”§ Installation

# Make the script executable
chmod +x ~/clawd/skills/home-music/home-music.sh

# Symlink for global access
sudo ln -sf ~/clawd/skills/home-music/home-music.sh /usr/local/bin/home-music

Now home-music works from anywhere in your terminal! šŸŽ‰


šŸŽØ 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 "šŸ’Ŗ 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 "āœ… 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.


šŸ› Troubleshooting

āŒ "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

āŒ "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")'

āŒ "Spotify won't start"

Is Spotify open?

pgrep -x Spotify || open -a Spotify

Is spotify-applescript installed?

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

āŒ "Permission denied"

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

šŸ”Š 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'

šŸ’” 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!
