TalkPlay-Tools Environments

This repository contains the prebuilt tool environments essential for the TalkPlay-Tools: Conversational Music Recommendation with LLM Tool Calling system.

The paper proposes an LLM-based music recommendation system with tool calling that serves as a unified retrieval-reranking pipeline. These tool environments enable the system to interpret user intent, plan tool invocations, and orchestrate specialized components such as boolean filters (SQL), sparse retrieval (BM25), dense retrieval (embedding similarity), and generative retrieval (semantic IDs).

• Code Repository: https://github.com/talkpl-ai/talkplay-tools
• Associated Demo Data: talkpl-ai/TalkPlayData-2

Dataset Structure

The tool_env.tar.gz bundle, provided as part of this dataset, contains the following subdirectories:

• cache/metadata (test metadata files)
• cache/bm25 (BM25 indices and track_index.json)
• cache/encoder (vector DB for embeddings)
• cache/semantic_id (RVQ indices per modality)
• cache/sql (SQLite DB for tracks)

Sample Usage (Fetching Tool Environments)

Prebuilt demo indices are expected under ./cache. You can download a prepared bundle and extract it:

wget https://huggingface.co/datasets/talkpl-ai/TalkPlayTools-Env/resolve/main/tool_env.tar.gz
tar -xzvf tool_env.tar.gz -C ./cache

This will create the necessary tool environment directories in your local ./cache folder, allowing you to use them with the TalkPlay-Tools code.

Sample Usage (Quick Start)

Once the tool environments are set up, you can run an example query with the provided test data (cold-start user case). This demo uses only 6,744 tracks from the test split of TalkPlayData-2. Due to licensing constraints, the system returns Spotify links instead of direct audio files.

python run.py --user_query "I'm looking for calm and slow tempo piano music."

Example output:
