# agent-lx-music (alx) — Music CLI Agent Usage Guide

## Overview

`alx` is a terminal-native music CLI that replaces lx-music-desktop. It uses mpv as a detached daemon for playback, supports JS source scripts for URL resolution, and has native search for multiple music platforms.

All commands support `--json` output and `--quiet` to suppress non-data output.

## Quick Command Reference

### Search

```bash
alx search "keyword"                   # Search all platforms
alx search "keyword" --source kw       # Search specific platform (kw/wy/kg)
alx search "keyword" --limit 10        # Limit results
alx search "keyword" --id-only         # Output only CLI IDs (for piping)
alx search "keyword" --json            # JSON output
```

### Playback

```bash
alx play <cli_id>                      # Play by search result ID
alx play <cli_id> --quality flac24bit  # Play with specific quality
alx play <url>                         # Play direct URL

    "album_name": "Ye Hui Mei",
    "pic_url": "https://img3.kuwo.cn/..."
  }
]
```

- `q` = `queue`
- `lrc` / `lyr` / `lyrics` = `lyric`
