Cratekeep is a lightweight web interface for managing a beets music library. Review MusicBrainz matches, import music from an inbox, and edit metadata and file tags.

First run: select /data/inbox and /data/library in the setup screen. Configuration, databases, and the generated signing key persist in /data/config.

Inbox imports copy files into the Library and tag the copies, leaving originals in place. Use Refresh in Inbox to discover new audio files. All three folders must be writable by UID 99, GID 100 (Unraid nobody:users). Start with disposable copies.

Cratekeep has no built-in authentication. Use a trusted network or an authenticating reverse proxy; do not expose it directly to the internet.

Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.
