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.

moviepilot-api

jxxghp/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.

generate-identifiers

jxxghp/MoviePilot

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.

feedback-issue

jxxghp/MoviePilot

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.

database-operation

jxxghp/MoviePilot

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".

moviepilot-cli

jxxghp/MoviePilot

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.

description	Use this skill when you need to check MoviePilot versions, restart MoviePilot, or trigger a MoviePilot upgrade.

MoviePilot Update

All script paths are relative to this skill file.

Use this skill for MoviePilot restart and upgrade operations.

Setup

This skill reuses the moviepilot-api client. When running inside the MoviePilot project, the API client imports app.core.config.settings and reads the local host, port, and API token directly. Do not ask the user for API_TOKEN.

Preferred Commands

Check versions

python scripts/mp-update.py versions

This calls GET /api/v1/system/versions.

Restart MoviePilot

python scripts/mp-update.py restart

This calls GET /api/v1/system/restart.

Upgrade and restart MoviePilot

Release mode:

python scripts/mp-update.py upgrade

Dev mode:

python scripts/mp-update.py upgrade dev

This calls POST /api/v1/system/upgrade.

Behavior:

If MOVIEPILOT_AUTO_UPDATE is already enabled (release or dev), MoviePilot only triggers a restart and lets the normal startup flow perform the upgrade.
If MOVIEPILOT_AUTO_UPDATE is disabled, MoviePilot writes a one-shot upgrade flag, restarts itself, performs that single upgrade during startup, and then continues running without changing the persisted auto-update setting.

Direct API Examples

python ../moviepilot-api/scripts/mp-api.py GET /api/v1/system/restart
python ../moviepilot-api/scripts/mp-api.py POST /api/v1/system/upgrade --json '"release"'
python ../moviepilot-api/scripts/mp-api.py POST /api/v1/system/upgrade --json '"dev"'

Notes

These operations require administrator authentication.
Restart or upgrade will interrupt the current agent session. Do not rely on post-restart follow-up steps in the same run.
Prefer the API flow above. Only fall back to manual container commands when the API is unavailable.
