Implementation Reference
- Handler for the 'compose' tool: validates inputs, auto-initializes browser if needed, generates complete pattern via PatternGenerator, writes to editor, plays if requested, returns success with preview and metadata.
case 'compose': InputValidator.validateStringLength(args.style, 'style', 100, false); if (args.key) { InputValidator.validateRootNote(args.key); } if (args.tempo !== undefined) { InputValidator.validateBPM(args.tempo); } // Auto-initialize if needed if (!this.isInitialized) { await this.controller.initialize(); this.isInitialized = true; } // Generate pattern const composedPattern = this.generator.generateCompletePattern( args.style, args.key || 'C', args.tempo || this.getDefaultTempo(args.style) ); // Write pattern await this.controller.writePattern(composedPattern); // Auto-play by default (unless explicitly set to false) const shouldPlay = args.auto_play !== false; if (shouldPlay) { await this.controller.play(); } return { success: true, pattern: composedPattern.substring(0, 200) + (composedPattern.length > 200 ? '...' : ''), metadata: { style: args.style, bpm: args.tempo || this.getDefaultTempo(args.style), key: args.key || 'C' }, status: shouldPlay ?
