A tool for working with Spotify through its web service, including finding music, managing playlists, controlling playback, and reading selected listening data. Spotify is a music-streaming service.

Use it to search for tracks, artists, and albums; create or edit playlists; add or remove songs; play, pause, or skip music; inspect listening data; and create custom playlist cover art.

It lets an agent carry out common Spotify actions from instructions, including creating playlist cover images in SVG format for use as thumbnails. It also covers account setup and the operations the tool supports.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00100	$0.03966
Opus 5	$0.00050	$0.01983
Sonnet 5	$0.00020	$0.00793
Haiku 4.5	$0.00010	$0.00397

Security

Grade A, and why

spotify-api 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/cover_art_generator.py, scripts/export_data.py, scripts/playlist_creator.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Spotify API Skill

Version: 0.9.1 | Release Date: October 22, 2025

Overview

This skill directly interacts with the Spotify Web API to manage music and playlists.

⚡ Unique Capability: Image Generation

🎨 This skill can GENERATE IMAGES - something Claude cannot do natively! It creates custom SVG-based cover art for Spotify playlists with large, readable typography optimized for thumbnail viewing. Each cover art is dynamically generated with theme-appropriate colors, gradients, and text layouts.

Use this skill when you need to:

🎨 Generate cover art images - Create custom playlist covers (Claude's built-in image generation limitation is bypassed!)
🎵 Create playlists from artist names, themes, or specific songs
🔍 Search for tracks, artists, albums
➕ Add/remove tracks from playlists
▶️ Control playback (play, pause, skip)
📊 Get user data (profile, top tracks, listening history)

When to use this skill: The user wants you to create a playlist, search for music, manage their Spotify account, or generate custom cover art images.

Core Capabilities

🎨 Cover Art Image Generation - Generate custom images with SVG → PNG conversion (Claude cannot generate images natively!)
Intelligent Playlist Creation - Create playlists by artist, theme, lyrics, or song list
Playlist Management - Create, list, update, delete playlists
Search & Discovery - Find tracks, artists, albums, playlists
Track Management - Add/remove tracks, get recommendations
Playback Control - Play, pause, skip, control volume
User Library - Access saved tracks, profile, listening history

Quick Start

All Spotify API operations use the SpotifyClient class from scripts/spotify_client.py. The client handles OAuth authentication and provides methods for all operations.

Prerequisites

1. Enable Network Access (REQUIRED)

⚠️ This skill requires network access to reach api.spotify.com

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.
