Show HN: Ismail, a DAW that AI agents operate through text

I saw the need for this because existing DAWs have lots of limitations from an agent perspective. Agents can't hear so they need to be able to inspect music in just text.

A major known limitation is that it can't do voices, and if you try to get it to recreate a song, it can get stuck in a render->check loop where it starts flip-flopping on details but never gets the score to 100%. I'm guessing that there are some shallow valleys in the score landscape for trying to match the exact sound of a full song.

I put up a showcase page where you can hear some stuff I already made here: https://newsbubbles.github.io/ismail/ to get a feel for some range. I just happen to like brostep so I went that direction immediately.
