Spotify Toolkit

The Spotify toolkit integrates Arcade with the Spotify Web API, enabling LLMs to control playback, search the catalog, and retrieve listening state on behalf of authenticated users.

Capabilities

  • Playback control: Pause, resume, skip to next/previous track, and seek to an absolute or relative position within the current track (with automatic boundary clamping).
  • Playback initiation: Start playback by track name, artist name (queues 5 tracks by that artist), or a list of explicit track IDs.
  • Catalog search: Query the Spotify catalog with advanced field filters (album, artist, track, year, genre, isrc, upc, tag:new, tag:hipster) across multiple result types.
  • State inspection: Retrieve the current playback state (track/episode, device, progress) and list all available devices — read-only, no side effects.
  • Track metadata: Fetch detailed information about a specific track by its Spotify ID.

OAuth

This toolkit uses OAuth 2.0 with Spotify as the identity provider. See the Spotify auth provider docs for setup details, including how to configure the provider in Arcade.

Adjust the playback position within the currently playing track. Knowledge of the current playback state is NOT needed to use this tool as it handles clamping the position to valid start/end boundaries to prevent overshooting or negative values. This tool allows you to seek to a specific position within the currently playing track. You can either provide an absolute position in milliseconds or a relative position from the current playback position in milliseconds. Note: Either absolute_position_ms or relative_position_ms must be provided, but not both.

Search Spotify catalog information Explanation of the q parameter: You can narrow down your search using field filters. Available filters are album, artist, track, year, upc, tag:hipster, tag:new, isrc, and genre. Each field filter only applies to certain result types. The artist and year filters can be used while searching albums, artists and tracks. You can filter on a single year or a range (e.g. 1955-1960). The album filter can be used while searching albums and tracks. The genre filter can be used while searching artists and tracks. The isrc and track filters can be used while searching tracks. The upc, tag:new and tag:hipster filters can only be used while searching albums. The tag:new filter will return albums released in the past two weeks and tag:hipster can be used to return only albums with the lowest 10% popularity. Example: q="remaster track:Doxy artist:Miles Davis"
