deadwax

Notes etched next to the music.

A media library that lives in markdown. Point deadwax at audio — a URL or a folder you already own — and it maintains a vault: one note per track with typed frontmatter, artist index notes with wikilinks, album indexes, a dashboard. Obsidian-native, but plain markdown, so it works anywhere.

No database. No cache. The notes are the library.

Status: pre-alpha. All commands work; the format may still shift before 0.1.

Commands

deadwax init            # create deadwax.toml + vault dirs here
deadwax add <url>       # ingest via yt-dlp, write note + sidecars
deadwax <url>           # same as add
deadwax scan <dir>      # catalog an existing folder of audio
deadwax sync            # rebuild artist notes, indexes, dashboard
deadwax rm <query>      # remove a track (note + media)
deadwax open <query>    # open the closest-matching note
