Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

Headless dashboard automation via pushover_headless_web_control.ts (function/enum-driven Bun TypeScript — run directly, no build; needs bun install in skills/_lib/ for playwright-core). pushover.net login is a plain email/password form (no anti-bot / CAPTCHA / 2FA — verified 2026-05-30), so plain Playwright + system Chrome works.

WEB apps                                              # list application names
WEB create-app --name "My App" --desc "..." --reveal # create app, print its API token (--reveal = full)
WEB delete-app --name "My App"                        # delete app (by --name or --slug)
WEB list-sounds                                       # list custom sound names
WEB add-sound --name po_fanfare --file x.mp3 --desc "..."   # upload a custom sound
WEB remove-sound --name po_fanfare                   # delete a custom sound

Custom sounds: constraints + sourcing pipeline (verified 2026-05-30)

Pushover custom sounds: MP3 only, < 500 KB, ≤ 30 s (iOS won't play longer). Sweet spot for "loud + as long as possible": ~29 s at 128 kbps ≈ 454 KB. Two helpers automate sourcing/processing:

# 1) discover free MP3 jingles (Mixkit free license, attribution optional)
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_lib/find_jingles.sh" win        # or game musical alarm celebration
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_lib/find_jingles.sh" tag/happy  # stock-music tags (longer tracks)

# 2) trim + LOUDNESS-NORMALIZE + size-fit to a compliant sound (loudnorm I=-10, peak -1dB, <500KB)
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_lib/make_custom_sound.sh" <url|file> out.mp3 [start_s] [dur] [bitrate]
#   -> JSON {kb, dur, max_db, mean_db, under_500kb}; non-zero exit if >=500KB (then lower bitrate)

# 3) upload it
WEB add-sound --name my_jingle --file out.mp3 --desc "loud 29s jingle"

Always analyze with make_custom_sound.sh output (or ffmpeg -af volumedetect) to confirm loud (max ≈ 0 dB) and long (≈29 s) before upload. Loaded so far: po_fanfare, po_uplift, po_celebrate (all 29 s / 454 KB / peak ≈ -1 dB). Pre-existing custom: dune, piano, toy_story, vibe20sec.

Verified autonomous capability (full lifecycle)

• create-app: application[short_name] + terms checkbox + submit; captures the 30-char API token from the app page (excludes PO_USER). delete-app: /apps/edit/<slug> → /apps/destroy/<slug>.
• add-sound: /sounds/build (sound[name], sound[description], file sound[sound_data_file]). remove-sound: /sounds/edit/<name> → /sounds/destroy/<name>. Rails data-method=post; the script auto-accepts the confirm dialog. Both verify the result by re-listing.

Tooling notes

• Default: Playwright + channel="chrome" (no browser download). Scrapling/Obscura unnecessary here.
• Network: prefix op/HTTP with env -u *PROXY* (and curl --noproxy '*') to bypass the sandbox proxy.

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, check before closing:

1. Did the headless Playwright flow log in and mint/delete the app token without a selector break? A pushover.net UI change silently breaks selectors — fix them immediately if so.
2. Did the returned token work on a test send? A minted-but-dead token means the create flow needs fixing.

Only update if the issue is real and reproducible — not speculative.
