Implementation Reference

  • The MCP tool handler for get_devices, extracting token and delegating to SpotifyService.getUserDevices
    handler: async (args: any, spotifyService: SpotifyService) => { const { token } = args; return await spotifyService.getUserDevices(token); },
  • Input schema definition for the get_devices tool, requiring a valid Spotify access token
    schema: createSchema({ token: commonSchemas.token(), }),
  • Full registration of the get_devices tool within the playbackTools object, including title, description, schema, and handler
    get_devices: { title: "Get User Devices", description: `Retrieve all available Spotify-connected devices for the user's account. 🎯 USE CASES: • Display device options for playback targeting • Build device management and control interfaces • Check which devices are currently online and available • Monitor device battery levels and connection status • Create smart home integrations with Spotify-enabled devices 📝 WHAT IT RETURNS: • Complete list of user's connected devices • Device names, types, and unique identifiers • Current active state and availability status • Volume levels and playback capabilities • Device restrictions and supported features 🔍 EXAMPLES: • "Show me all my Spotify devices" • "What devices can I play music on?" • "List my available speakers and phones" • "Which devices are currently online?" 🔧 DEVICE TYPES: • Computer (desktop/laptop applications) • Smartphone (mobile apps) • Speaker (smart speakers, soundbars) • TV (smart TVs, streaming devices) • Car (automotive systems) • Game Console (PlayStation, Xbox) 💡 DEVICE MANAGEMENT: • Shows real-time availability status • Indicates which device is currently active • Displays volume control capabilities • Shows device-specific restrictions • Perfect for building device selector UIs ⚠️ REQUIREMENTS: • Valid Spotify access token with user-read-playback-state scope • At least one Spotify-enabled device must be logged in`, schema: createSchema({ token: commonSchemas.token(), }), handler: async (args: any, spotifyService: SpotifyService) => { const { token } = args; return await spotifyService.getUserDevices(token); }, },
  • SpotifyService helper method implementing the core logic by calling Spotify API endpoint /me/player/devices
    async getUserDevices(token: string): Promise<{ devices: SpotifyDevice[] }> { return await this.makeRequest<{ devices: SpotifyDevice[] }>( "me/player/devices", token ); }
  • TypeScript interface defining the structure of SpotifyDevice objects returned by the tool
    export interface SpotifyDevice { id: string; is_active: boolean; is_private_session: boolean; is_restricted: boolean; name: string; type: string; volume_percent: number | null; }
