Lattice ~ CLI Toolkit For Music Collectors
A high-performance CLI toolkit for music collectors who manage their own libraries. Lattice provides a suite of tools for library visualization, integrity verification, cover art extraction, and metadata auditing — all from a single, zero-dependency script.
Why this exists
Modern music players often hide your library behind proprietary databases. Lattice is built for collectors who treat the filesystem as the source of truth. It reads tags directly via mutagen, ensuring your library is portable and player-agnostic.
Features:
| Mode | Flag | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Library Tree | --library | Generate a formatted ASCII/Unicode tree of your entire collection. |
| AI Library | --ai-library | Token-efficient export designed for LLM recommendation prompts. |
| Genre Wings | --all-wings | Generate separate library catalogs segmented by genre. |
| Integrity Checks | --testFLAC | Parallel verification of FLAC/MP3/Opus/WAV integrity via FFmpeg. |
| Art Extraction | --extractArt | Extract embedded covers with format-priority ranking (FLAC > Opus). |
| Tag Audit | --auditTags | Identify and report files with missing or inconsistent metadata. |

Bitfake2 ~ Audio Tool Handler & Manipulator
Bitfake was originally created to detect fake
.FLACfiles through spectral analysis. It has since grown into a multipurpose CLI tool for handling music more easily and efficiently.One common problem was that getting a track’s metadata required long
ffprobecommands with messy output. Converting music withffmpegwas also repetitive. The command itself is easy to remember, but writing scripts to convert entire directories felt inefficient and slow. This project now performs metadata and conversion tasks directly through linked libraries (TagLib/libsndfile/libav*).
Features:
- Get metadata
- Get ReplayGain info (useful for music players)
- Spectral analysis on 44.1 kHz
.FLACfiles (higher sample rates may be misrepresented, so be careful) - Lossy diagnosis (banding score)
- File Conversion + VBR Support (Works for outputs like
.wav,.flac,.ogg,.mp3,.aac,.opus) - Tagging metadata (Works for single files, but not directories yet)
- Calculating ReplayGain and applying it to files (Works for track replay gain iterating through directories, album replay gain is a bit funky?)
- Directory Conversion (works for all previously mentioned formats!)
- CoverArt+ (Brings along cover art among all conversions!)
- Organizing Files by album! (Give a dir of random music, and bitfake will organize it – ty to uncognic)
- Directory Tagging (YAY!)
- Album folder renaming from tags (Artist – Album (Year))
- Spectrogram generation (in .png)
- Version info (WOW! BEST YET!)
- MusicBrainz Syncing data.

Tagr ~ Music Metadata Editor
Self-hosted web app for browsing, playing, and editing music file metadata. Features a three-panel UI to navigate your library, listen to tracks, and write tag changes directly back to audio files. Built with Next.js, React, Prisma + SQLite, and node-taglib-sharp.
Most metadata editors are either desktop-only, command-line tools, or bloated apps with steep learning curves. If your music lives on a NAS, a server, or a headless machine, editing tags means SSH, mounting drives, or syncing files back and forth.
Tagr takes a different approach:
- Run it anywhere — Docker, bare metal, your NAS. If it runs Node.js, it runs Tagr.
- Edit from any browser — No installs, no plugins. Just open a tab.
- Do one thing well — Browse your library, edit tags, save. That’s it.
Features:
Metadata Editing
- Edit 40+ metadata fields inline — title, artist, album, year, genre, composer, BPM, lyrics, and more
- Album art management — view, replace, and upload cover images directly
- Star ratings (1–5) with a visual widget
- Support for track/disc numbering, sort fields, catalog numbers, barcodes, and extended tags
- Read-only display of audio properties (codec, bitrate, sample rate, channels, bits per sample)
Music Player
- Built-in audio player with interactive waveform visualization (WaveSurfer.js)
- Play/pause, previous/next track navigation
- Click-to-seek on the waveform
- Auto-advance to next song
- Collapsible sidebar player with album art, title, and artist display
Library Browsing
- Three-panel layout — folder tree, song list, and detail editor side by side
- Folder tree with hierarchical navigation and real-time search
- Sorting on any column — title, artist, album, year, duration, bitrate, date added, and dozens more
- Advanced filtering — text, numeric ranges, date ranges, and boolean filters across all fields
- Customizable columns — show/hide any of 40+ columns to match your workflow
- Virtual scrolling and infinite pagination for large libraries
