What it does

CLI Anything Rekordbox is an agent skill from HKUDS/CLI-Anything. Command-line interface for Pioneer Rekordbox 6/7 - DJ library and live-deck control via guarded SQLCipher master.db access (pyrekordbox) + virtual MIDI mapping. Provides library inspection, playlist creation/add/clear, and live-deck mixing (play/sync/crossfade/EQ). Pioneer ships no playback REST API; this harness combines the only two real surfaces (encrypted DB + MIDI) into one agent-native CLI.

Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering REST APIs. The repository describes itself as: "CLI-Anything: Making ALL Software Agent-Native" -- CLI-Hub: https://clianything.cc/. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve REST APIs

Example prompts

  • “/cli-anything-rekordbox”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 34f5195. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

CLI Anything Rekordbox loads about 848 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 249 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~848

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

cli-anything-rekordbox

Agent-native CLI for Pioneer Rekordbox 6/7. Drives the DJ library and live decks programmatically.

Installation

bash
pip install cli-anything-rekordbox

Prerequisites:

  • Python 3.10+
  • Rekordbox 6 or 7 installed (master.db must exist)
  • Virtual MIDI driver for live-deck control:
    • Windows: loopMIDI / LoopBe / teVirtualMIDI
    • macOS: IAC Driver
    • Linux: ALSA virtual MIDI (snd-virmidi)

Usage

bash
# Status check
cli-anything-rekordbox status

# REPL mode
cli-anything-rekordbox

# JSON output for agents
cli-anything-rekordbox --json library search "Daft Punk"

CommandDescription

add NAME --track-title T [--force] [--no-backup]Add track
clear NAME [--force] [--no-backup]Empty a playlist

Playlist writes create a master.db backup before mutation. They refuse to run while Rekordbox is open unless --force is supplied; forced writes still require a backup. --no-backup is only accepted when Rekordbox is closed.

Deck (live MIDI)

+----------+  +-----------+
  • master.db is encrypted with a static AES-256 key shared by all rekordbox 6/7 installs (auto-extracted by pyrekordbox)
  • Virtual MIDI mapping uses Pioneer's standard .midi.csv format; this CLI ships Bunker.midi.csv and an install-mapping command to drop it into rekordbox's MidiMappings/ folder

JSON output

Every command supports --json:

bash
$ cli-anything-rekordbox --json library count
{"track_count": 30344}
