Show HN: Code music in Python that generates MIDI
Interesting approach. There has been much activity in recent years in live coding with a lot of interesting solutions.
> most music coding software out there is more focused on experimentation rather than conventional songwriting
Did you have a look at e.g. https://github.com/alda-lang/alda or https://abcnotation.com/? Or e.g. https://github.com/emicklei/melrose is a similar approach as yours. There is also an algorithcmic composition language called SAL which is used in Common Music (https://commonmusic.sourceforge.net/) and Niquist (https://sourceforge.net/projects/nyquist/).

Alda – Text-Based Programming Language for Music Composition
I love these text-based languages for music composition. Its something that is approaching a gap in music composition in real-life vs via computer. In real-life you can tell your bandmates to "just play a I V IV in C" and they get it. But we are still not quite at a place where we can tell a computer that exact phrase and get something useful. I love how close these text-based languages are getting though!
I've actually made my own musical language too - called miti [1], which is just one of many others including textbeat [2], foxdot [3], sonic-pi [4], chuck [5], and melrose [6]. Each has their own goals and capabilities.

[P] I built a chatbot that lets you talk to any Github repository
I tried it on textbeat which is in python and it wasn't understanding too much, with the exception of how the callstack worked in the parser. My questions may have been too usage-specific and not enough about the internals but I used up all my free usage credits so I couldn't continue.

Coltrane: A music theory library with a command-line interface
My text-based music sequencer has some music theory support and it also has a REPL:

Pico8 Music Synthesizer
I haven't worked on it in a while, but you might like textbeat (https://github.com/flipcoder/textbeat). It's a midi tracker and REPL that lets you type in music theory-like terminology and plays it. It's nowhere near a modern DAW but it's cool for tinkering and learning.

Anyone doing larger scale code-based algorithmic pieces with Bitwig?
I've used Bitwig as a plugin host for textbeat before and it was quite fun. Textbeat is a project of mine that lets you write music in "plain text" with notation for chords, scales, and articulations. I haven't worked on it in a while though.
