When to Use

• User wants to generate original AI music from a prompt and/or lyrics
• User wants to remix / re-create an existing song with new lyrics
• User wants a pure instrumental, or a soundtrack scored to an image or video
• User wants to extend a song or isolate/generate a single track
• User wants to analyze audio — recognize lyrics, describe a song, or split stems
• User says "音乐", "music", "生成音乐", "generate music", "翻唱"/"混音"/"remix", "续写"/"extend", "纯音乐"/"instrumental", "配乐"/"soundtrack", "分轨"/"stem", "识别歌词", "作曲", "compose", "create a song", or "做一首歌"

When NOT to Use

• User wants text-to-speech reading (use /speech)
• User wants a podcast discussion (use /podcast)
• User wants an explainer video with narration (use /explainer)
• User wants to transcribe spoken audio to text — not song lyrics (use /asr)

Purpose

Full ListenHub music toolkit, powered by the Mureka provider via the listenhub music CLI. Capabilities:

Generation (async — return a task to poll):

1. generate — text and/or lyrics → a new song. Optional style, title, instrumental, and a cloned --vocal-id.
2. remix — an existing song + new lyrics → a re-creation. Input is one of an audio file, an audio URL, or a provider song ID.
3. instrumental — a pure instrumental from a prompt, or guided by a reference audio.
4. soundtrack — music scored to an image or a video.
5. track — isolate or generate a single instrument/vocal track from a song.
6. extend — make a song longer.
7. cover (deprecated) — older cover flow; prefer remix.

Analysis (sync — return results immediately):

8. recognize — lyrics with line-level timestamps.
9. describe — description, tags, genres, instruments.
10. stem — split a song into separated stems (ZIP download URLs).

Task management: list (recent tasks) and get <taskId> (status/result of one task).

Models for generation commands: auto (default), mureka-7.6, mureka-8, mureka-9, mureka-o2. See references/music-api.md for the full per-command parameter reference.

Hard Constraints

• Always read config following shared/config-pattern.md before any interaction
• Follow shared/cli-patterns.md for execution modes, error handling, and interaction patterns
• Always follow shared/cli-authentication.md for auth checks
• Never save files to ~/Downloads/ or .listenhub/ — save artifacts to the current working directory with friendly topic-based names (see shared/config-pattern.md § Artifact Naming)
• No speakers involved — music generation does not use speaker selection
• File limits (all max 10 MB): audio mp3/m4a (track also accepts wav); image jpg/jpeg/png/webp; video mp4/mov/avi/mkv/webm
• All time-range flags are in seconds (--generate-start/--generate-end)
• For async generation commands, use a long timeout: run_in_background: true with timeout: 660000 (600s+). Sync commands (recognize, describe, stem) return immediately
• cover is deprecated — steer users to remix unless they explicitly ask for cover

Use the AskUserQuestion tool for every multiple-choice step — do NOT print options as plain text. Ask one question at a time. Wait for the user's answer before proceeding to the next step. After all parameters are collected, summarize the choices and ask the user to confirm. Do NOT call any CLI command until the user has explicitly confirmed.

Step -1: CLI Auth Check

Follow shared/cli-authentication.md. If the CLI is not installed or the user is not logged in, auto-install and auto-login — never ask the user to run commands manually.

Step 0: Config Setup

Follow shared/config-pattern.md Step 0 (Zero-Question Boot).

If file doesn't exist — silently create with defaults and proceed:

mkdir -p ".listenhub/music"
echo '{"outputMode":"download","language":null}' > ".listenhub/music/config.json"
CONFIG_PATH=".listenhub/music/config.json"
CONFIG=$(cat "$CONFIG_PATH")

Do NOT ask any setup questions. Proceed directly to the Interaction Flow.

If file exists — read config silently and proceed:

CONFIG_PATH=".listenhub/music/config.json"
[ ! -f "$CONFIG_PATH" ] && CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/.listenhub/music/config.json"
CONFIG=$(cat "$CONFIG_PATH")

Setup Flow (user-initiated reconfigure only)

Only run when the user explicitly asks to reconfigure. Display current settings:

当前配置 (music)：
  输出方式：{inline / download / both}
  语言偏好：{zh / en / 未设置}

Then ask:

1. outputMode: Follow shared/output-mode.md § Setup Flow Question.

2. Language (optional): "默认语言？"

   • "中文 (zh)"
   • "English (en)"
   • "每次手动选择" → keep null

After collecting answers, save immediately:

NEW_CONFIG=$(echo "$CONFIG" | jq --arg m "$OUTPUT_MODE" '. + {"outputMode": $m}')
if [ "$LANGUAGE" != "null" ]; then
  NEW_CONFIG=$(echo "$NEW_CONFIG" | jq --arg lang "$LANGUAGE" '. + {"language": $lang}')
fi
echo "$NEW_CONFIG" > "$CONFIG_PATH"
CONFIG=$(cat "$CONFIG_PATH")

Interaction Flow

Step 1: Capability

Pick the capability. Skip the question if the user's intent is already clear (e.g., "翻唱"/"混音"/"remix" → remix; "作曲"/"compose"/"做一首歌" → generate; "纯音乐"/"instrumental" → instrumental; "续写"/"extend" → extend; "分轨"/"stem" → stem; "识别歌词" → recognize).

Question: "想做什么？"
Options:
  - "原创 (Generate)" — 用文字 / 歌词生成全新歌曲
  - "混音 (Remix)" — 基于已有歌曲 + 新歌词重新创作
  - "纯音乐 (Instrumental)" — 生成无人声的器乐
  - "配乐 (Soundtrack)" — 为图片或视频配乐
  - "其他" — 续写 / 单轨 / 识别歌词 / 描述 / 分轨

If the user picks "其他", follow up with a second AskUserQuestion listing: 续写 (Extend)、单轨 (Track)、识别歌词 (Recognize)、描述 (Describe)、分轨 (Stem).

get <taskId> and list are not interactive flows — run them directly when the user asks about a task's status.

Step 2: Gather inputs (per capability)

Use the per-capability fields below. Ask for required inputs; offer optional ones. For any audio/image/video file, validate before confirming:

• Local path: verify the file exists and the extension matches the allowed list for that command (see Hard Constraints / references/music-api.md).
• URL: accept as-is (the CLI validates).
• Size: reject local files over 10 MB.

FILE_SIZE=$(stat -f%z "{path}" 2>/dev/null || stat -c%s "{path}" 2>/dev/null)
if [ "$FILE_SIZE" -gt 10485760 ]; then echo "File exceeds 10 MB limit"; fi

generate — --prompt and/or --lyrics (at least one); optional --style, --title, --model, --instrumental, --vocal-id.

remix — exactly one input source: --audio (file) / --audio-url / --provider-song-id; plus --lyrics and --prompt (both required); optional --style, --title, --model.

instrumental — exactly one of --prompt / --reference-audio; optional --title, --model.

soundtrack — exactly one of --image / --video; optional --prompt, --title, --model.

track — exactly one input source --audio / --provider-song-id; --generate-type (one of Vocals|Instrumental|Drums|Bass|Guitar|Keyboard|Percussion|Strings|Synth|FX|Brass|Woodwinds); optional --prompt; --lyrics only when type is Vocals; --vocal-gender male|female; --generate-start/--generate-end (seconds); --model.

extend — one input source --audio / --provider-song-id; optional --prompt, --model.

recognize / describe / stem — --audio only. stem also takes --model audio-separation-1|audio-separation-2.

For multi-choice fields (model, generate-type, vocal-gender, instrumental yes/no) use the AskUserQuestion tool. Free-text fields (prompt, lyrics, style, title) accept plain text.

Step 3: Confirm

Summarize the capability and every collected parameter, then ask the user to confirm. Examples:

generate:

准备生成音乐：
  能力：原创 (Generate)
  描述：{prompt / 无}
  歌词：{lyrics / 无}
  风格：{style / 自动}
  标题：{title / 自动}
  模型：{model / auto}
  人声：{带人声 / 纯音乐}
  Vocal ID：{vocal-id / 无}
  确认？

remix:

准备混音：
  能力：混音 (Remix)
  原曲：{audio / audio-url / provider-song-id}
  新歌词：{lyrics}
  描述：{prompt}
  风格：{style / 自动}
  标题：{title / 自动}
  模型：{model / auto}
  确认？

For analysis capabilities (recognize / describe / stem) the summary is just the capability + the input audio (+ separation model for stem); these run synchronously, so confirmation can be lightweight.

Wait for explicit confirmation before running any CLI command.

Workflow

Async generation commands

generate, remix, instrumental, soundtrack, track, extend, cover.

1. Submit (background) with run_in_background: true and timeout: 660000. Always pass --json. Include only the flags the user provided; omit the rest.

   generate:

   listenhub music generate \
     --prompt "{prompt}" \
     --lyrics "{lyrics}" \
     --model "{model}" \
     --style "{style}" \
     --title "{title}" \
     --instrumental \
     --vocal-id "{vocal-id}" \
     --json
   

   remix:

   listenhub music remix \
     --audio "{path}" \
     --lyrics "{lyrics}" \
     --prompt "{prompt}" \
     --style "{style}" \
     --title "{title}" \
     --json
   

   (use exactly one of --audio / --audio-url / --provider-song-id)

   instrumental:

   listenhub music instrumental \
     --prompt "{prompt}" \
     --model "{model}" \
     --json
   

   (or --reference-audio "{path}" instead of --prompt)

   soundtrack:

   listenhub music soundtrack \
     --image "{path}" \
     --prompt "{prompt}" \
     --json
   

   (or --video "{path}" instead of --image)

   track:

   listenhub music track \
     --audio "{path}" \
     --generate-type "Vocals" \
     --lyrics "{lyrics}" \
     --vocal-gender "female" \
     --generate-start 0 --generate-end 30 \
     --json
   

   (or --provider-song-id; --lyrics only when --generate-type Vocals)

   extend:

Sync analysis commands

recognize, describe, stem return results in the same call — run them in the foreground (no background, no long timeout) and present immediately.

recognize (lyrics + timestamps):

listenhub music recognize --audio "{path}" --json

describe (description, tags, genres, instruments):

listenhub music describe --audio "{path}" --json

stem (separated stems → ZIP download URLs):

listenhub music stem --audio "{path}" --model "audio-separation-2" --json

In download/both mode, download the ZIP URL(s) promptly to cwd.

Task management

listenhub music list --json            # recent tasks
listenhub music get "{taskId}" --json   # one task's status / result

After Successful Generation

Update config with the language used this session if the user explicitly specified one:

if [ -n "$LANGUAGE" ]; then
  NEW_CONFIG=$(echo "$CONFIG" | jq --arg lang "$LANGUAGE" '. + {"language": $lang}')
  echo "$NEW_CONFIG" > "$CONFIG_PATH"
fi

Examples

Generate original:

"帮我做一首关于夏天海边的歌"

1. Detect: generate mode ("做一首歌")
2. Read config (first run: create defaults with outputMode: "download")
3. Infer: mode = generate, prompt = "夏天海边的歌"
4. Ask: style? title? instrumental?
5. Confirm summary → user confirms

listenhub music generate \
  --prompt "关于夏天海边的歌" \
  --json

Wait for CLI to return result, then download {slug}.mp3 to cwd.

Remix an existing song:

"用 demo.mp3 重新填词混音，把它做成 city pop 风格"

1. Detect: remix capability ("混音")
2. Validate: demo.mp3 exists, is mp3/m4a, under 10 MB
3. Ask: new lyrics (--lyrics, required), prompt/direction (--prompt, required), style, title
4. Confirm summary → user confirms

listenhub music remix \
  --audio "demo.mp3" \
  --lyrics "{new lyrics}" \
  --prompt "rework as upbeat city pop" \
  --style "city pop" \
  --json

Wait for the CLI result, then download {slug}.mp3 to cwd.

Generate instrumental:

"Create an instrumental electronic track for a game intro"

1. Detect: instrumental capability ("instrumental")
2. Infer: prompt = "electronic track for a game intro"
3. Confirm summary → user confirms

listenhub music instrumental \
  --prompt "electronic track for a game intro" \
  --json

Wait for the CLI result, then download {slug}.mp3 to cwd.

Soundtrack for a video:

"给这段 clip.mp4 配一段紧张的背景音乐"

1. Detect: soundtrack capability ("配乐"), input is a video
2. Validate: clip.mp4 exists (mp4/mov/avi/mkv/webm), under 10 MB
3. Infer: prompt = "紧张的背景音乐"
4. Confirm summary → user confirms

listenhub music soundtrack \
  --video "clip.mp4" \
  --prompt "tense, suspenseful background score" \
  --json

Recognize lyrics (sync):

"帮我识别 song.mp3 里的歌词"

1. Detect: recognize capability ("识别歌词")
2. Validate: song.mp3 exists, under 10 MB
3. Run in foreground and show lyrics with timestamps

listenhub music recognize --audio "song.mp3" --json

Split stems (sync):

"把 track.mp3 分轨"

1. Detect: stem capability ("分轨")
2. Ask: separation model (audio-separation-1 / audio-separation-2)
3. Run in foreground; in download mode, fetch the ZIP URL to cwd

listenhub music stem --audio "track.mp3" --model "audio-separation-2" --json
