Home Music

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 12, 2026.

Overview

This looks like a purpose-built Mac music-control skill, but you should verify its local Spotify helper and the optional sudo install step.

This skill appears benign and purpose-aligned for controlling home music on macOS. Before installing, confirm the speaker names and playlists are yours, review the referenced spotify-applescript helper, and be cautious with the sudo symlink step if you do not need a global home-music command.

Findings (3)

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 the skill can start music, change volume, and connect or disconnect household speakers.

Why it was flagged

The script controls Airfoil speakers and Spotify playback, including all-speaker party mode at 70% volume. This is aligned with the skill's purpose but is still a real local-device control capability.

Skill content
for speaker in "${ALL_SPEAKERS[@]}"; do ... airfoil_volume "$speaker" 0.7 ... "$SPOTIFY_CMD" play "$PLAYLIST_PARTY"
Recommendation

Install only on a Mac where you want this control, and review or customize the speaker list and playlist IDs before use.

What this means

A sudo install command can modify a protected system-wide command directory.

Why it was flagged

The documented install step asks the user to use sudo to create a global command symlink. This is user-directed and scoped, but it crosses a local privilege boundary during setup.

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

Only run the sudo symlink command after reviewing the script path; alternatively, run the script directly without installing a global command.

What this means

Spotify actions depend on another local script; if that script is missing, different, or untrusted, behavior may not match this skill's visible code.

Why it was flagged

The skill invokes a separate local Spotify helper script outside the provided file contents, and the path is hardcoded to a specific user's directory. That dependency is disclosed by the skill purpose, but its code is not reviewed here.

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

Verify the spotify-applescript helper before use and update the hardcoded path to your own reviewed installation.
