songsee is a Claude skill for the songsee CLI, which generates spectrograms and feature-panel visualizations from audio files.

About

This skill drives the songsee command-line tool to generate spectrograms and feature-panel visualizations from audio files. A developer uses it to render a spectrogram, produce a multi-panel grid of audio features like mel, chroma, MFCC, and tempogram, or extract a time slice of a track. It documents the CLI flags for visualization types, palettes, output size, FFT settings, frequency range, and format.

  • Generates spectrograms and multi-panel feature visualizations from audio via the songsee CLI
  • Supports mel, chroma, HPSS, self-similarity, loudness, tempogram, MFCC, and flux panels
  • Time-slice, stdin piping, palette, and FFT window/hop flags

What it does

Render a spectrogram or multi-panel audio-feature visualization from an audio file using the songsee CLI.

Who is it for?

Rendering spectrograms and multi-panel audio-feature visualizations from audio tracks.

Skip if: Editing or synthesizing audio; it only visualizes it.

When should I use this skill?

You need to visualize an audio file as a spectrogram or feature-panel grid.

What you get

Spectrogram and feature-panel images (mel, chroma, MFCC, tempogram, and more) rendered from an audio file.

  • spectrogram image
  • audio feature panel grid

By the numbers

  • 9 visualization panel types
  • 5 palette styles (classic, magma, inferno, viridis, gray)
  • 2 native decode formats (WAV, MP3)

songsee

Generate spectrograms + feature panels from audio.

Quick start

  • Spectrogram: songsee track.mp3
  • Multi-panel: songsee track.mp3 --viz spectrogram,mel,chroma,hpss,selfsim,loudness,tempogram,mfcc,flux
  • Time slice: songsee track.mp3 --start 12.5 --duration 8 -o slice.jpg
  • Stdin: cat track.mp3 | songsee - --format png -o out.png

Common flags

  • --viz list (repeatable or comma-separated)
  • --style palette (classic, magma, inferno, viridis, gray)
  • --width / --height output size
  • --window / --hop FFT settings
  • --min-freq / --max-freq frequency range
  • --start / --duration time slice
  • --format jpg|png

Notes

  • WAV/MP3 decode native; other formats use ffmpeg if available.
  • Multiple --viz renders a grid.
