Use this skill when the user asks to inspect, diagnose, or directly operate a configured Emby, Jellyfin, Plex, ZSpace, UGREEN, TrimeMedia, or Navidrome server. It discovers provider capabilities on demand and supports libraries, native movie/music search, episode coverage, recent media, resume state, playback sessions, statistics, scans, metadata refreshes, and provider play URLs without adding permanent tools.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Media Server Operation

Use `scripts/mp-mediaserver.py`. The helper reads MoviePilot's local server
configuration and credentials itself. Never request, print, or pass a host,
username, password, API key, token, Cookie, or arbitrary URL.

Run the bundled copy from the MoviePilot program directory with its project
runtime, for example:

```bash
cd <MOVIEPILOT_ROOT>
python skills/mediaserver-operation/scripts/mp-mediaserver.py instances
```

The Agent command environment routes `python` to the project-specific `moviepilot-python`
entry when available and falls back to the project or Docker `VENV_PATH` Python otherwise.
Media-server connections may depend on macOS local-network permissions, so use the provided
`python` command for every operation.

The runtime sets `MOVIEPILOT_ROOT` for copied skills. If you run a copied
script directly from `<CONFIG_PATH>/agent/skills/`, set that variable to the
program directory first; otherwise the helper returns a clear relocation
error. Do not use a system `python3` when it does not meet MoviePilot's
required Python version.

## Boundary

- Keep `library.exists` in `moviepilot-api` for canonical duplicate checks. It

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jxxghp/moviepilot/mediaserver-operation@sha256:337a934c85d671d2

The line at the top of this page pins the label v3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
