🎵 Play Music Skill

Controlled music player with pause/resume/stop support Single entry point, background server for full control

Quick Start

1. Place music files in a music folder (default) or set MUSIC_DIR environment variable
2. Install pygame (recommended for full control): pip install pygame
3. Use: ./play-music play

Single Entry Point

The skill has one clear entry point: ./play-music

Command Interface

./play-music help          - Show this help
./play-music list          - List available songs
./play-music play          - Play default song
./play-music pause         - Pause currently playing music
./play-music resume        - Resume paused music
./play-music stop          - Stop currently playing music
./play-music status        - Show playback status
./play-music <filename>    - Play specific song (e.g., song.mp3)
./play-music server-start  - Start music server manually
./play-music server-stop   - Stop music server

Examples

# Play the default song
./play-music play

# Play a specific song
./play-music song.mp3

# Control playback
./play-music pause
./play-music resume
./play-music stop

# See what's available
./play-music list

Features

✅ Single entry point - No confusion about which script to use ✅ Full playback control - Play, pause, resume, stop ✅ Resource-efficient - Server auto-starts when needed, auto-stops when music stops ✅ Clean architecture - Client-server separation ✅ Pygame-based - High quality audio playback ✅ Cross-platform - macOS/Windows/Linux compatible

Setup

1. Install Pygame (Recommended)

For full pause/resume/stop control:

pip install pygame

2. Add Music Files

Place your music files in:

• Default: ./music (relative to script location)
• Custom: Set MUSIC_DIR environment variable

3. Configuration

# Set custom music directory
export MUSIC_DIR="/path/to/your/music"

# Set default song name
export DEFAULT_SONG="my-song.mp3"

How It Works

The skill uses a clean client-server architecture:

1. play-music - Single entry point (Python script combining client functionality)
2. music-server.py - Background server that handles music playback
3. Pygame mixer - For high-quality audio with full control

Resource-efficient design: The server auto-starts when you play music and auto-shuts down when you stop music. This saves system resources while maintaining the convenience of the client-server architecture.

Troubleshooting

"No music playing" when trying to pause/resume/stop Start playing music first: ./play-music play

"Music directory not found" Create the directory: mkdir music or set MUSIC_DIR environment variable

"Pygame not installed" Install it: pip install pygame

Server won't start Check if port 12346 is available, or kill existing servers:

pkill -f "music-server.py"
./play-music server-start
