name: "cli-anything-wavetone" description: "Control WaveTone 2.61 workflows through a JSON manifest and launch the real Windows WaveTone executable."

cli-anything-wavetone

Use this skill when an agent needs to prepare, inspect, and launch WaveTone 2.61 audio transcription workflows.

Requirements

• Windows host.
• WaveTone 2.61 extracted locally.
• Set WAVETONE_EXE to wavetone.exe or WAVETONE_HOME to the extracted WaveTone directory when the default portable path is not used.

Core Commands

All commands support the top-level --json flag.

cli-anything-wavetone --json wavetone doctor
cli-anything-wavetone --json project new input.wav -o project.wt.json
cli-anything-wavetone --project project.wt.json --json audio probe
cli-anything-wavetone --project project.wt.json --json project set-tempo --bpm 120 --meter 4/4
cli-anything-wavetone --project project.wt.json --json project add-label chorus --time 64.0
cli-anything-wavetone --project project.wt.json --json wavetone launch

Command Groups

• project: create manifests, set tempo, add labels, update intended analysis settings, and attach a WFD saved from WaveTone.
• audio: probe audio metadata before opening it in WaveTone.
• wavetone: run doctor, list supported formats, or launch the real GUI.
• session: record lightweight event logs for multi-step agent workflows.
• defaults: show default analysis settings.

Agent Guidance

The JSON project manifest is not a WaveTone WFD file. It is an agent-facing plan for the source audio, intended analysis settings, labels, and tempo metadata. Use WaveTone itself to perform analysis and save WFD/MIDI/text/WAVE outputs.

When running in automated checks, use:

cli-anything-wavetone --json wavetone launch input.wav --wait 1 --terminate

This confirms that the real backend can be started without leaving a persistent GUI process behind.
