What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent to turn a song, podcast, or short personal intro into a Spotify-style 'Now Playing' card, built as one self-contained HTML page. The card shows a CSS-drawn album cover, title, artist, a progress bar with timestamps, and playback control icons in Spotify's dark style. The output is meant for placing over a video or on a personal website, in either a 1280x720 or 600x200 size. It forbids external image links, so the cover art is a gradient or graphic rather than a real album photo.

Great for

  • Creators who want a music card overlay for a video or stream
  • People building a personal about page or hero section who want a 'now listening' widget
  • Designers who need a quick Spotify-like mockup without using Spotify's real assets

Skip it if

  • Showing real album art or live Spotify data: the skill forbids external images and does not connect to Spotify, so the progress and track details are invented placeholders.
  • Anything needing accurate track length or playback status, since the default duration of 3:42 is an estimate, not real data.

Try asking

  • “Make a Spotify now-playing card for the song 'Midnight Drive' by a lo-fi artist, sized for a 1280x720 video overlay”
  • “Create a compact 600x200 now-playing widget for my portfolio homepage”
  • “Turn this podcast episode title and host name into a Spotify-style card with a progress bar”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the agent the song title, artist, and a rough progress time so the displayed values look realistic.
  • Ask for the dark gradient or the classic #121212 background depending on whether the card sits on a dark or light video.
  • Remember the design imitates Spotify's look; check branding rules before publishing commercially.
