output

output is a skill for Claude Code from Bangs00/claude-media-control. It costs 50 tokens per session (486 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for viewing or changing the Mac's audio output device, such as speakers, AirPods, displays, or a DAC.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for listing available outputs, identifying the current one, and routing sound to a selected device.
Why use it?
It avoids searching through system audio settings when sound is going to the wrong device.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: names the AskUserQuestion tool.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

output scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Requested device: $ARGUMENTS

Current output device and everything available (JSON):

!"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/media.sh" output

Now do the following:

  1. No argument → present the devices as a short markdown list, marking the current one, e.g. 🔊 **MacBook Pro Speakers** (current), then offer to switch.

  2. With a device request → map what the user said to one entry in the devices list above (they may use loose words: "에어팟"/"earbuds" → the AirPods entry, "speakers" → the built-in speakers, "monitor"/"TV" → the display device). Then run:

    "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/media.sh" output "<device name>"
    

    The script itself accepts an exact name, a unique case-insensitive substring, or the 1-based list position, and prints the updated list.

  3. Confirm in one styled line: 🔊 Output → **AirPods Pro**.

Error handling:

  • Exit 4 — no match or ambiguous; stderr names the candidates. Show them and ask which one (AskUserQuestion is not available here — just ask in text).
  • Exit 1 with "native helper" — the feature needs the compiled helper; point to /media:doctor.
  • A device that is not connected (e.g. AirPods in the case) does not appear in the list — switching cannot connect it; the user must connect it first.

Tip: the statusline can show the current output device (icon by device kind — 🎧 Bluetooth/headphones, 📺 HDMI/DisplayPort, 📶 AirPlay, 🔊 speakers) — check "Output device" in the /media:statusline Items tab, or place it anywhere with a numeric pattern (digit 6).

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
