MoviePilot

Use this skill when you need to call MoviePilot REST API endpoints directly with the bundled Python client. Covers MoviePilot HTTP endpoints across media search, downloads, subscriptions, library management, site management, system administration, plugins, workflows, and more. Prefer `moviepilot-cli` for normal local MCP tool workflows; use this skill when the user explicitly asks for HTTP API access, when an endpoint is not exposed as an MCP tool, or when running in an environment where direct REST calls are the appropriate bridge.

Use this skill when a user provides a torrent name or file name and wants to fix recognition issues, or asks to add/manage custom identifiers (自定义识别词). This skill generates identifier rules based on the WordsMatcher preprocessing logic, checks for duplicates against existing rules, and saves them via MCP tools. Because custom identifiers are global, generated rules must default to conservative, sample-specific regex patterns instead of broad matches unless the user explicitly wants global cleanup. Applicable scenarios include: 1) A torrent or file name is incorrectly recognized (wrong title, season, episode, etc.); 2) The user wants to block unwanted keywords from torrent names; 3) The user needs episode offset rules for series with non-standard numbering; 4) The user wants to force recognition of a specific media by TMDB/Douban ID; 5) The user wants TV recognition to use a specific TMDB episode group.

Use this skill when the user asks to create, modify, debug, validate, or scaffold a MoviePilot local plugin. Covers MoviePilot V2 plugin development, _PluginBase implementations, package.v2.json/package.json market metadata, plugins.v2/plugins source layout, PLUGIN_LOCAL_REPO_PATHS local plugin sources, plugin APIs, Vuetify JSON forms/pages/dashboards, Vue module federation remote components, get_render_mode, get_sidebar_nav, plugin sidebar pages, commands, services, workflow actions, agent tools, and local install/reload flows. Also use for Chinese requests mentioning 编写插件、本地插件源, 插件开发, V2插件, 插件市场, 本地安装插件, 插件热加载, 前端联邦, 侧栏入口, Vue插件页面.

Use this skill ONLY when the user EXPLICITLY requests filing an upstream issue for MoviePilot core, frontend, or an installed plugin, for example "反馈 issue", "提 issue", "报 bug", "给 MP 提 issue", "让上游修一下", "提交错误报告", "提问题", "提需求", "功能请求", or English "file an issue / report a bug / open an upstream issue / feature request". A bare problem report is not enough: diagnose locally first. This skill uses its own scripts under `scripts/`; it does not add or call dedicated Agent tools for collect / prepare / submit.

Use this skill when you need to inspect, query, maintain, or carefully modify the MoviePilot database. This skill uses the bundled scripts/mp-db.py helper, which reads MoviePilot local settings itself and never requires database passwords or full PostgreSQL DSNs in the agent prompt. Applicable scenarios include data statistics, counts, aggregations, inspecting or fixing records, cleanup requests, and questions like "how many downloads", "show site stats", "delete old records", or "why is this subscription stuck".

Use this skill when the user asks to operate MoviePilot through the local `moviepilot tool` MCP CLI for normal product workflows: media search, torrent search, downloads, subscriptions, downloader tasks, library checks, sites, schedulers, workflows, and messages. Prefer dedicated skills for slash command dispatch, manual file organization or failed transfer retry, direct REST API calls, direct database SQL, browser operations, and restart/upgrade.

Use this skill when you need to check MoviePilot versions, restart MoviePilot, or trigger a MoviePilot upgrade. Prefer the built-in system APIs instead of docker commands or manual file replacement. If auto-update on restart is already enabled, just restart. If it is disabled, call the upgrade API so MoviePilot performs a one-shot upgrade and restart.

Real-time search engine supporting web search, vertical domain search, parallel batch search, and URL content extraction.

Use this skill when the user asks the MoviePilot agent to identify and organize downloaded/local media files that automatic transfer cannot handle. Typical triggers include: manually organize a file or folder, organize unrecognized downloads, fix files stuck in a download directory, identify a messy episode pack, move/copy/link files into the library, or organize files by explicit TMDB/Douban ID. If the user gives failed transfer history IDs, prefer transfer-failed-retry instead.

Use this skill when the user asks to publish, upload, sync, pull, push, diff, or maintain a MoviePilot local plugin in a GitHub repository. Covers using the configured MoviePilot GitHub token, PLUGIN_LOCAL_REPO_PATHS local plugin repositories, package.json/package.v2.json metadata, plugins/plugins.v2 layouts, safe file exclusion, diff preview before publishing, incremental GitHub Contents API updates, and syncing local plugin changes back from GitHub. Includes asking whether to use an existing repository or create a new public repository when no target repository is available. Also use for Chinese requests mentioning 插件发布, 插件维护, 推送插件到 GitHub, 从 GitHub 拉取插件, 同步本地插件仓库, 增量发布插件, 插件仓库维护.

Use this skill when the user asks the agent to open, browse, inspect, extract content from, click through, fill forms on, screenshot, or verify a web page with a browser. Also use it for MoviePilot scenarios that need browser interaction, such as checking a site page, confirming a JavaScript-rendered result, testing login state, capturing visible errors, or updating and validating tracker site cookies.

Use this skill when the user's intent is to execute a system or plugin function. Applicable scenarios include: 1) The user sends a slash command starting with / (e.g. /cookiecloud, /sites, /subscribes, etc.); 2) The user describes an action in natural language that can be fulfilled by a system or plugin command (e.g. "sync sites", "show subscriptions", "refresh subscriptions", "check downloads", etc.). This skill helps you identify the user's intent, find the matching command, extract necessary parameters, and execute the corresponding command.

Use this skill when the user asks to create, scaffold, update, or review a MoviePilot agent skill. This includes adding a new built-in skill under the repository `skills/` directory, editing an existing built-in skill, writing `SKILL.md` frontmatter and workflow instructions, choosing `allowed-tools`, adding helper scripts when needed, and bumping the built-in skill `version` so changes can sync into `config/agent/skills`.

Use this skill when you need to retry failed file transfers/organizations. Given one or more failed transfer history record IDs, this skill guides you through querying the failure details, deleting the old records, and re-identifying and re-organizing the files. Supports batch processing of multiple files from the same media (e.g., multiple episodes of a TV show). This skill is automatically triggered when the system detects transfer failures and the AI agent retry feature is enabled.
