# Spotify Safe Play Use this skill when the user wants to play Spotify tracks, albums, or playlists and the machine is known to have unreliable direct `spogo play` behavior. Files included with this skill - Wrapper script: `./bin/spotify-safe-play` Preferred commands - Search track: `spogo search track "query"` - Search album: `spogo search album "query"` - Search playlist: `spogo search playlist "query"` - Safe playback: `./skills/spotify-safe-play/bin/spotify-safe-play <spotify-uri-or-url-or-id> [--device "..."]` - Pause / resume / next / previous: `spogo pause`, `spogo play`, `spogo next`, `spogo prev` - Devices: `spogo device list`, `spogo device set "<name|id>"` - Status: `spogo status` Playback rules - For tracks, the wrapper safely queues the requested track and skips to it. - For albums and playlists, the wrapper expands the public Spotify page into track URIs, queues them in normal order, skips once into the first track, then exits immediately. - After the first target track starts, do not send extra `next`, `play`, or verification loops. - Avoid direct `spogo play <track>` on affected machines because it may resume the current context instead of switching to the requested content. - If the user has separately installed `spotify-safe-play` into PATH, `spotify-safe-play <item> ...` is also acceptable. Requirements - Spotify Premium - `spogo` installed and authenticated - Bash, `curl`, `grep`, and `awk` - An active Spotify Connect target such as Spotify Web Player or the desktop app
