onboard

Onboard — Music Assistant

End-to-end first-run: capture credentials, verify the server responds, snapshot the environment, and produce a context file the other skills can rely on.

Phase 1: Capture credentials

1. Resolve the data root and ensure directories exist:

   DATA_ROOT="${CLAUDE_USER_DATA:-${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/claude-plugins}/media-assistant-ops"
   mkdir -p "$DATA_ROOT/data" "$DATA_ROOT/state"
   

2. If $DATA_ROOT/config.json exists, display the current values (redact API key to last 4 chars) and confirm the user wants to overwrite.

3. Ask the user for:

   • Local deployment URL — full base URL (e.g. http://10.0.0.50:8095). Accept an IP alone and assume http:// + default port 8095.
   • WAN URL / hostname (optional).
   • API key (required) — long-lived token from Music Assistant → Settings → Security.

4. Write $DATA_ROOT/config.json with lan_url, wan_url, api_key. chmod 600 the file.

   Never echo the full API key back — only the last 4 characters for confirmation.

Phase 2: Vet the setup

Run these checks against the LAN URL (fall back to WAN if LAN is unreachable and a WAN URL was provided). Report each as ✓ / ✗ with a short note.

1. Reachability — GET /api/info with the Bearer token. Capture server version, Python version, OS.
2. Auth — confirm the API key was accepted (200 vs 401/403).
3. Provider health — GET /api/providers. For each provider, report name, type (music / player / metadata / plugin), and available status. Flag any provider in an error state.
4. Port / firewall — if GET /api/info fails, attempt a raw TCP connect to the port and report whether the service is up vs whether it's an auth problem.

Produce a short Setup Vetting Report the user can read at a glance.

Phase 3: Snapshot the speaker/player roster

1. GET /api/players and persist the full response to:

   $DATA_ROOT/data/players-snapshot.json
   

2. Write a human-readable summary to $DATA_ROOT/data/players-snapshot.md with one row per player:

   | Name | Player ID | Type | Provider | Default volume | Group membership |

   This file is the future-context artefact — other skills can grep it to resolve names → IDs and it gives you (Claude) a cheap way to know what hardware exists without a live call.

3. If any player is part of a sync group, note the group and which player is the leader.

Phase 4: Library summary

1. Hit the library summary endpoints (if the running MA version exposes them) and persist raw JSON to $DATA_ROOT/data/library-snapshot.json:

   • GET /api/library/tracks?limit=1 — read total count from pagination meta
   • GET /api/library/albums?limit=1
   • GET /api/library/artists?limit=1
   • GET /api/library/playlists?limit=1
   • GET /api/library/radios?limit=1

   If a given endpoint 404s on this MA version, skip it and note "not supported on this server version" in the report — don't fail the whole onboarding.

2. List active music providers (from Phase 2's provider fetch, filtered to type=music) with track count per provider if the API exposes it.

3. Write a human-readable $DATA_ROOT/data/library-snapshot.md:

   # Music Assistant Library — snapshot <ISO date>
   - Tracks: N
   - Albums: N
   - Artists: N
   - Playlists: N
   - Radios: N
   
   ## Music providers
   - spotify (connected) — 12,345 tracks
   - plex (connected) — 4,567 tracks
   - filesystem (connected) — 890 tracks
   

Phase 5: Final report to the user

Print a single consolidated summary covering:

• ✓/✗ for each vetting check
• Server version + address used
• Player count and any notable states (offline, grouped, DSP-capable)
• Library totals and active music providers
• Paths of the snapshot files written under $DATA_ROOT/data/
• Next suggested commands: /media-assistant-ops:status, /media-assistant-ops:list-players

Do not

• Do not write anything to ~/.claude/ or inside the plugin install directory.
• Do not echo the full API key after capture.
• Do not block onboarding if the library endpoints are unsupported — degrade gracefully with a note.
• Do not overwrite an existing config.json without explicit user confirmation.
