About This Skill
The sounds-on-the-web skill enables AI agents to interact with audio elements on web pages, allowing them to play, pause, stop, and control playback state for media content. It provides direct access to the HTML5 Audio API to execute commands like seeking specific timestamps or toggling mute status dynamically.
When to use it
- Triggering a podcast episode to start playing when a user requests audio content from a specific website.
- Pausing background music or video narration during a focused task to minimize distractions.
- Adjusting the volume of a webpage's embedded media to match user preferences for accessibility.
- Stopping an automatic advertisement or looping sound that interrupts the browsing experience.
Key capabilities
- Play audio files found on a webpage.
- Pause active audio streams.
- Stop playback entirely.
- Seek to specific time positions within a track.
- Toggle mute/unmute states for media elements.
Example prompts
- "Play the main podcast episode on this news site."
- "Pause the background music while I read this article."
- "Stop any auto-playing sounds on this page and mute it."
Tips & gotchas
This skill relies on the target website exposing its audio elements to the browser's accessibility tree; if a site blocks script access to media, commands may fail. Ensure the AI agent has explicit permission to interact with media controls before attempting playback actions.
