How do I control Spotify playback from the terminal?▼

Authenticate via OAuth PKCE using the command uni spotify auth, which uses a default embedded app for setup. After authenticating, check your connection status with uni spotify auth --status to ensure the CLI is properly linked to your Spotify account.

Can I search for tracks and artists on Spotify without opening the app?▼

The uni CLI supports read-only now playing features for all users, meaning you can view what's currently playing. However, active playback controls like play, pause, skip, and volume adjustment require a Spotify Premium subscription.

What's the best way to manage Spotify playlists from the command line?▼

You can manage your Spotify devices and playlists from the terminal using uni spotify commands. List available playlists with uni spotify playlists and handle active devices through the device management commands to control where music plays.

Do I need Spotify Premium to use a CLI for music control?▼

You need Spotify Premium for active playback control via the CLI, as free accounts are restricted to read-only now playing features. Search and playlist browsing work for all users, but play, pause, and skip require Premium.
