is this a serious question? It would make it easy for someone to expose an SMS bot to family and friends, for starters. so they can have family request things in a convenient way?

For example my mom, who is tech illiterate, could send an SMS like "please add the new spiderman movie to the media library." And it magically shows up on the apple tv.

Or we could use it to do a "lazy" search on the library. Jellyfin in the year 2026 is still too stupid to understand that when i search "spiderman", the result "spider-man" should be included in the results. God help us lol.

Or maybe you could easily run codex/claude against your media server to help with routine maintenance. Like "hey claude we're a bit low on disk storage. Please find movies/shows that were requested a while ago and are large in size." then if you're happy with the list, ask claude to delete those for you.

Idk...i could think of like 20 more uses cases. Use your imagination. :)
