Spotify Player

Control Spotify from your terminal without leaving your workflow. This skill wraps two CLI players: spogo (preferred) and spotify_player as fallback. You can search tracks, control playback, switch devices, and check what's playing, all from the command line. Spogo uses cookie-based auth from your browser, which is simpler than OAuth setup. Requires Spotify Premium. Honestly most useful if you're already terminal-heavy and find yourself constantly alt-tabbing to pause music or skip tracks. The skill handles installation via Homebrew and includes both players so you have options if one doesn't work for your setup.
