Icoustic Skill
Teach your AI how Icoustic works
Icoustic is not an AI product — you connect your own assistants (Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT Desktop, and others). Download the skill package so they understand the app, and use MCP on Mac when you want them to query your library.
- Getting StartedInstall Icoustic and open your first library.
- Devices & NetworksOpen Icoustic on the same Wi‑Fi — devices appear in the sidebar, approve once, share folders, play to another device.
- Adding a Library FolderPoint Icoustic at the folders that hold your music.
- Browsing & SearchAlbums, songs, artists, genres, and finding tracks across every shared library on this network.
- Playback & QueuePlay, shuffle, Live Queue, playing on other devices, AirPlay, and lock-screen controls.
- Playlists & RatingsOrganize with manual playlists, smart playlists, and star ratings that stick.
- Metadata & Tag Write-backEdit tags in the app — changes land in your files.
- MCPConnect Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT Desktop to your local library on Mac — read-only or with reviewable proposals.
- Icoustic SkillGive your own AI a skill package that tutors Icoustic — and MCP when you connect it.
- Privacy & Local-firstWhat stays on device, what stays in the house, and what Icoustic never collects.
- FAQCommon questions about formats, platforms, sharing, and streaming.
