Track Janitor

Enforces naming conventions across the whole Live Set: renames tracks still at their Live-default name ("1-Audio", "2-MIDI", "Audio 3", ...) using their first clip or device name, then applies a configurable keyword/device-name prefix (see rules.json).

Right-click any audio or MIDI track and choose Track Janitor: Clean Up Whole Set. A preview dialog lists every proposed rename; nothing changes until you confirm.

Known limitations (SDK gaps, not bugs)

• No track coloring. This SDK version has no color property on Track/AudioTrack/MidiTrack — only Clip.color exists. Track Janitor only renames; it does not (and currently cannot) recolor tracks.
• No group-track creation. There is no API to create a Group Track or assign a track into one (Track.groupTrack is read-only). The "optionally group matched tracks" idea from the original spec has been dropped.
• Whole Set only. There's no context-menu scope for "the currently selected tracks" — only a single right-clicked track, an Arrangement time-selection, or a Session clip-slot selection. Every entry point here processes song.tracks in full, regardless of which track you clicked.

Config

Edit rules.json. Each rule has a namePrefix and a match block with keywords (case-insensitive substrings checked against the track's name and its clip names) and/or deviceNames (exact, case-insensitive device name matches). The first matching rule wins; a track already carrying its prefix is left alone.
