What this skill does
Sonos Use for Sonos music, playback, queue, room/group, and YouTube workflows. Rules Prefer existing local Sonos tooling in the current repo before inventing shell/API calls. Do not change speaker groups, queues, or playback unless the user asks for it. Confirm target room/group when ambiguous. For YouTube, prefer a playable audio URL or local extraction workflow already present in the repo; avoid downloading unless requested. Keep network/debug work out of scope unless the user explicitly asks for diagnostics. Secrets, service tokens, and account auth: check env/profile first; use op only via the repo/AGENTS rules. Workflow 1. Discover repo commands: rg --files package scripts or CLI help 2. Identify target: room/group service/source query, URL, playlist, album, artist, or track 3. Dry-read current state when useful: rooms/groups now playing queue 4. Execute the requested playback action. 5. Verify by reading current state again. Common Tasks Search and play music by track, album, artist, playlist, or station. Add or replace the queue. Pause, resume, skip, seek, shuffle, repeat. Set volume or mute for a room/group. Move/group playback between rooms. Play YouTube audio/music through Sonos when supported by local tooling. YouTube Notes Treat YouTube URLs as media sources first, not as download requests. If conversion/extraction is needed, prefer the local toolchain already used by the repo. State constraints clearly when Sonos/service support blocks direct playback.
