A DAW for AI agents: write music as text, read the audio back as text. MCP server, CLI and an agent skill.
A DAW built to be operated by an AI agent. Everything goes in as text (notes, instrument patches, effect chains, automation) and everything comes back as text: levels, spectra, drum patterns, piano rolls, chords, vowels, song structure, and structured comparisons against a reference track. The agent never needs ears or images to work (a spectrogram PNG is there if you want one).
- MCP server for Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client: python -m ismail.mcpserver (stdio, about 70 tools) - CLI: python -m ismail -p [args] - Python: from ismail import api
If demucs fights your torch install, use pip install --no-deps demucs and then pip install dora-search einops julius lameenc openunmix.
MP3 previews need ffmpeg on your PATH (or set ISMAILFFMPEG to the binary).
1. Tools. Open Claude Code in this folder and the bundled .mcp.json registers the server; the tools show up as mcpismail. To use ismail from any folder instead:
2. Skill (recommended). skills/ismail teaches the agent how to compose with ismail: plan a Session Sheet before writing notes, write a Listening Report after every render, and judge reference matches with the comparison tools instead of by feel. Link it into your skills folder:
3. Ask for music. For example: "make a 16 bar deep house loop in F minor in songs/demo and render an mp3". The agent calls guide once for the conventions (it is a tool and a CLI op), then works through the tools.
