Media MIDI

Context: $ARGUMENTS

Wire-level MIDI 1.0 + 2.0, Standard MIDI Files (SMF), and control-surface plumbing. Not a DAW — for sequencing use a DAW; this skill is the CLI layer under it.

Quick start

• List MIDI ports: → Step 1 (list-ports)
• Send a note-on to port X: → Step 2 (send note-on --port "IAC" --channel 1 --note 60 --velocity 100)
• Monitor incoming MIDI: → Step 3 (dump)
• Parse a .mid file: → Step 4 (smf-dump file.mid)
• Author a .mid programmatically: → Step 4 (smf-write --json events.json --out song.mid)
