Home Music

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This skill appears to do what it claims—control local Spotify and Airfoil music scenes—but users should review the setup command and the external Spotify helper it calls.

Before installing, confirm the speaker names and volume levels are appropriate, inspect the separate spotify-applescript helper that this skill calls, and be cautious with the sudo symlink because it adds a persistent global command.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

Running a scene can start music, route it to speakers, and change volume across the home.

Why it was flagged

The script can connect speakers, change speaker volume, and start Spotify playback. This is expected for a whole-house music controller, but it affects the user's local audio environment.

Skill content
airfoil_connect "$speaker" ... airfoil_volume "$speaker" 0.7 ... "$SPOTIFY_CMD" play "$PLAYLIST_PARTY"
Recommendation

Review and adjust the configured speakers, playlists, and volumes before using the scenes, especially party mode.

What this means

The skill may fail on other Macs or may depend on behavior from a separate helper script not reviewed as part of this package.

Why it was flagged

The skill calls an external local spotify-applescript helper that is not included in the provided file manifest, and the path is hardcoded to an author-specific home directory.

Skill content
SPOTIFY_CMD="/Users/asteinberger/clawd/skills/spotify-applescript/spotify.sh"
Recommendation

Verify the spotify-applescript helper before use and update the path to the correct local installation, preferably using a user-relative path.

What this means

After setup, the command can be run from anywhere, and the sudo symlink may overwrite an existing /usr/local/bin/home-music entry.

Why it was flagged

The setup instructions make the script executable and create a privileged global command symlink. This is disclosed and user-directed, but it modifies a system-wide command path.

Skill content
chmod +x ~/clawd/skills/home-music/home-music.sh
sudo ln -sf ~/clawd/skills/home-music/home-music.sh /usr/local/bin/home-music
Recommendation

Inspect the script first, then run the setup only if you are comfortable adding a global command; consider using a non-sudo user-local bin directory instead.
