Short excerpt only, so you can decide whether to click out.

Spotify playback control skill for Hermes Agent on Linux / Raspberry Pi.

Teaches Hermes how to search and play tracks, albums, artists, and playlists; pause, resume, skip; adjust volume; transfer playback between Spotify Connect devices; and more — all via the spotipy Python library.

How it works: the skill teaches the agent to write small spotipy Python snippets and run them via execute_code. No daemon, no server — just Spotify Web API calls through a cached OAuth token.
