Instead of making your coding agent guess:
The skill provides agent-friendly guidance, examples, and best practices out of the box. It helps agents generate more accurate code and spend less time hallucinating API usage.
Ask your coding agent things like:
The agent will automatically use the skill instructions to choose the right endpoints and implementation patterns.
You can learn how to integrate with popular coding agents like Codex and Claude Code at https://github.com/PodcastAPI/skills#install
If your coding agent makes mistakes or you find missing examples, please open an issue or PR. We’ll continue improving the skill as Podcast API evolves.

We’ve integrated the Media Session API into our website's audio player. Previously, listeners encountered issues with native playback controls on mobile devices, such as the iPhone lock screen.
With this update, you can now manage your playback (play, pause, and seek) directly from your device's lock screen or notification center, providing a more seamless listening experience on the go.

We've completely revamped demo.PodcastAPI.com to better showcase the search capabilities of the Podcast API.
The demo site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages.
The entire source code for this demo is available on GitHub at ListenNotes/demo.podcastapi.com. We encourage you to fork the repo, experiment with the implementation, and use it as a foundation for your own projects.

Whether you are using ChatGPT, Claude, or any other LLM, you can now simply copy-paste the entire documentation to give the AI full context. This allows your favorite AI assistant to help you write, debug, and optimize your code with perfect accuracy.

At Listen Notes, we are committed to upholding free speech within the podcasting ecosystem. However, to operate globally and remain accessible, we must comply with local laws in specific regions.
We’ve introduced a new internal tool that allows our team to manage regional content restrictions more efficiently. This ensures we meet legal requirements from local governments while keeping the platform available for everyone else. After 9+ years of growth, we’re embracing the responsibilities that come with being an established global platform.
