What this skill does

# Sonos CLI Use `sonos` to control Sonos speakers on the local network. ## Quick start - `sonos discover` - `sonos status --name "Kitchen"` - `sonos play|pause|stop --name "Kitchen"` - `sonos volume set 15 --name "Kitchen"` ## Common tasks - Grouping: `sonos group status|join|unjoin|party|solo` - Favorites: `sonos favorites list|open` - Queue: `sonos queue list|play|clear` - Spotify search (via SMAPI): `sonos smapi search --service "Spotify" --category tracks "query"` ## Notes - If SSDP fails, specify `--ip <speaker-ip>`. - Spotify Web API search is optional and requires `SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID/SECRET`. - If there is an error, check the troubleshooting section and offer advice if there is a decent match. ## Troubleshooting ### `sonos discover` - `no route to host` - On error `Error: write udp4 0.0.0.0:64326->239.255.255.250:1900: sendto: no route to host (Command exited with code 1)` - Note that the port number after `0.0.0.0:` is ephemeral and will change and the netmask may not match exactly either - The `sendto: no route to host` should stay consistent - Advise the user that in `direct` (no Docker sandbox) mode on Mac OS that Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Local Network will need to be enabled for the top-level host parent process of the Gateway - `node` if running via `launchd` - `Terminal` if running the gateway directly in the terminal - `Visual Studio Code` if running via terminal in VS Code - An alternative option is to use `sandbox` (docker container) with network access allowed for that sandbox ### `sonos discover` - `bind: operation not permitted` - On error `Error: listen udp4 0.0.0.0:0: bind: operation not permitted` - Advise the user that they may be running via a Codex or other sandbox that does not permit network access (this can be replicated by running `sonos discover` within a Codex CLI session with sandbox enabled and not approving the escalation request)
