The /radio command searches the Radio Browser database of 30,000+ stations and starts streaming the best match in the Digcrate audio player. You can search by genre, station name, or pass a direct stream URL.

How it works

1

Parse input

If the input starts with http:// or https://, the agent skips the search and plays the stream directly using play_radio.
2

Search Radio Browser

For a genre or station name, the agent calls search_radio with the query. Genre queries search by tag; station name queries search by name.
3

Pick the best match

The agent selects the highest-voted station with a working stream. If multiple strong matches exist, it shows the top 3–5 and asks which one to play.
4

Start streaming

Calls play_radio with the station name or URL. The stream starts in the persistent audio player at the bottom of the workspace.
The audio player persists across the workspace — you can keep a station playing while you research tracks, run show prep, or map influence chains.

/prep

Generate show prep for the station you’re streaming

/news

Pull daily music news for a specific station’s voice
