What problem does it solve?
Manually adjusting Sonos speaker settings, grouping, playback, and volume across a local network is tedious, especially when you need quick adjustments without opening the official Sonos app. This Skill eliminates that hassle by providing direct CLI control for all common Sonos operations.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Local Speaker Control: Discover Sonos devices on your local network, check their status, play/pause/stop media, and adjust volume for individual speakers.
- Group Management: Easily configure speaker groups, join or unjoin speakers, and set party or solo modes for whole-home audio.
- Media Access: Play saved favorites, manage playback queues, and search for Spotify tracks via SMAPI integration. For example, if you are hosting a party, use this Skill to quickly group all your Sonos speakers and set them to play a shared queue without switching between multiple apps.
Quick Start
Use the sonoscli skill to set the volume of the Sonos speaker named "Living Room" to 25.
