Bose shut the SoundTouch cloud down. The speakers keep Bluetooth, AUX and AirPlay, and multiroom
zones still work; internet radio, presets, browsing and Alexa voice commands are dead. Radio and
presets come back once the speakers are pointed at a replacement service you run yourself.
This skill walks an owner through that end to end. Assume the owner is NOT technical: ask, do not
instruct, and ask for the physical things only they can do.
Work through the scripts in `scripts/`. They are what this skill tests and what it uses. AfterTouch
also ships a `soundtouch-cli` covering similar ground; `references/access-and-rooting.md` says where
it goes further, and `references/troubleshooting.md` says where to read upstream when a symptom is
not covered here.
## The two rules that decide the outcome
**Read freely, confirm every change.** Discovery, state, backups and verification run unattended.
Rooting a speaker, rewriting its service URLs, rebooting it and writing presets are explained in
plain words and need a yes first. Say what will change and what it will look like afterwards.
**Order is load-bearing.**
