You are working in the AbletonMCP-AI repository on Windows.

Read `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` before making substantial edits.

Current priorities:
- manual workflow, not blind autopilot
- editing open Ableton projects, especially `C:\Users\ren\Desktop\song Project\song.als`
- stronger coherence and continuity
- fewer silent gaps and less visual/audio symmetry
- harmonic MIDI backbone across the arrangement
- no automatic vocals

Execution rules:
- use PowerShell, not bash
- use absolute Windows paths when scripting
- compile changed Python files before claiming success
- run targeted tests when possible
- validate with MCP/Live runtime when the task touches generation or project editing

Do not:
- declare success from docs alone
- patch dead or backup files before active entrypoints
- force piano timbre just because the task mentions harmonic MIDI or piano roll
- treat a manifest as the only source of truth

Prefer:
- small, reviewable patches
- explicit error handling and structured logging
- keeping Live mutations short
- adding or preserving toolability for project inspection and editing
