 dawg is a local-first terminal music workstation with an agent-driven piano roll. Run `dawg` in a project directory, open it in more than one terminal window, and each window can focus on a different track in the same composition.
 
-The highway sits above a multiline prompt. Notes stream toward a hit line, sustains stretch across beats, and transport controls stay live while you ask the agent to add or reshape music. The session is stored locally in `.dawg`, so there is no account, login, hosted session, or required service for the core workflow.

An unknown `/word` is rejected locally (`unknown command /foo · /help`), and a known verb with bad arguments gets usage (`pan 3 · pan takes -1…1 · pan -0.5`) instead of a model call. `/track <name>` focuses a track in this window, creating it when it is new; a track another live window has open stays theirs (`drums is open in another window`).

 The screen has four parts. A one-line header shows `dawg` · track · ▶/⏸ BPM · key · session · window count (when more than one) on the left and model · rev · sync state on the right; narrower terminals drop the least important segments first. The highway overlays every unmuted track, each in its own stable accent, with the focused track bright and the others dimmed; `/view focus` shows only the focused track and `/view all` (the default) brings the rest back. A track with no hits shows `main · empty · add C4 at 0 to start` in place of lane labels. Below it, an activity strip shows operation cards (`✓ +8 bass notes · rev 41→42 · ^z undo`; the undo hint accompanies the first three score edits), queue depth, a braille spinner while the agent works, and errors in red with an `✗` prefix in one shape, `<what> · <why> · <next step>` (`no such file · nope.json`). The prompt panel is filled with a background color. It wraps by grapheme, grows from 1 to 8 rows (capped at 30% of the screen, then scrolls internally) and keeps the draft when the terminal is resized. Narrow terminals collapse the header and hints, and below 24×8 the screen shows a resize hint.

The default is `opus-5.5` (`anthropic/claude-opus-5.5`); `DAWG_MODEL=<alias|vendor/model>` overrides it, and an unknown value is an error at startup that lists the choices. xcb has no tool calling, so dawg asks for one JSON object of ops per call and runs each op through the same checks; it retries with diagnostics up to 3 calls per turn.
