Nice job. Feels like there's a bit of misunderstanding of what this project is. It has nothing to do with audio - it's purely a means of mapping MIDI to shell commands.
There was (still is) a very popular program called BOME Midi Translator that did something similar - think of it like AutoHotKey but specifically for midi.
Back when I made heavy use of Kontakt libraries I got frustrated at the lack of an easy way to audition the patches (of which there could be hundreds on a single sampler). To get around it, I created a Bome script so when I pressed an unused button on my midi controller it would trigger a mouse click to advance to the next patch in my DAW and then send a note-on / note-off for C4 for half a second.

Made previewing the sounds much easier.
How about chords? Melodies which are paths? Passwords? Lots of great potential here!
Password is 3rd movement of Moonlight Sonata without "typos".

This is one of those projects that would be 10x better with a video demonstration!
My Claude Code sessions are about to sound like the Breath of the Wild soundtrack
Ooh, let's spend next weekend doing this with my acoustic piano!
So I can run shell from a Miracle Piano connected to a NES running Linux?
