Audio playback, editing and analysis
<!-- -->
- Any Format — fast wasm codecs, no ffmpeg.
- Non-destructive — virtual edits, infinite undo, instant clone.
- Stream-first — playback/encode during decode, realtime editing.
- Paged — no 2Gb memory limit, open 10Gb+ files.
- Analysis — loudness, spectrum, beats, pitch, chords, key.
- Modular – pluggable ops, tree-shakable.
- CLI — playback, batch processing, scripting, unix pipes, tab completion.
- Cross-platform — browsers, node, deno, bun.
<!--
-->
- Architecture – stream-first design, pages & blocks, non-destructive editing, plan compilation
- Plugins – custom ops, stats, descriptors (process, plan, resolve, call), persistent ctx

Editor and agents
npx audio --bridge # audio bridge on http://127.0.0.1:7777 key K agents claude, codex, pi, kimiConnect the editor to it with the key (once: the bridge keeps it), and its chat runs an agent of yours, which measures, looks at, edits and plays the sound open there; each tab keeps its conversations, each with the agent picked under the message. The bridge finds Claude Code, Codex, Pi, Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, Kimi Code, OpenCode, Kilo Code, Cline, Goose, Factory Droid, Cursor, Augment, Kiro and Mistral Vibe on PATH; any other that speaks ACP runs by its command line, --agent "my-agent --acp".
Any MCP agent gets the editor's tools (state, measure, look, edit, select, play, check, …), the running bridge found by itself: npx add-mcp "npx -y audio --mcp --editor".
An agent thinks with the model its own settings name: Pi takes local ones for good from ollama launch pi --config; Claude Code takes any Anthropic-compatible endpoint from the bridge's environment:
