What it does
A Spotify plugin for OpenTabs, a local MCP server paired with a Chrome extension that lets an agent call websites' own APIs through the user's logged-in browser session. With open.spotify.com open and signed in, the plugin adds 21 tools: reading the user profile, searching the catalogue, reading artists, albums, playlists and saved tracks, and a large set of playback controls covering play, pause, skip, seek, volume, repeat, shuffle, device transfer and the queue. No Spotify developer app, API key or OAuth setup is needed, because calls run inside the Spotify tab as the user. It needs Node.js 22 or newer, Chrome and the OpenTabs CLI.
