awake-rings
A simple copy of the Awake script for Norns, pointed at the Karplus-Rings engine. This requires that the "we" project, containing the engine, has been installed.
Use it
Start the bridge with this driver; it forwards named OSC commands to the software:
Then send OSC to 127.0.0.1:7777, for example:
From Claude or any MCP client, the osc-bridge mcp server exposes this driver as norns_awake_rings: ask “what can the Monome norns do?” and it reads this map with list_routes. See the MCP guide.

The same MIDI as norns.vendor.fw-2.9.4, which this firmware shares.
Limitations
Source: the Lua source of the norns script awake-rings by GoneCaving (GoneCaving/awake-rings at d5df0b6), listed in norns.community. Shares the norns system OSC of monome/norns.vendor.fw-2.9.4 (port 10111, /param, /remote): give the norns' IP address as host override. Its own routes are the 30 parameter(s) whose id is written out in its source, read without running it, with range, options and default when written out too; set them while the script runs on the norns. 6 parameter call(s) could not be read without running the script (ids built at run time, values from variables) and are not mapped: reach them with the base driver's /param/{id}. Parameters added by libraries or engines outside the repository are not mapped either. A value goes in the parameter's units (an option's index from 1). MIDI is not mapped: the script's MIDI handling is its own and parameter MIDI mappings are learned by each user (PMAP). Untested on hardware.

Frequently asked questions
Can an AI agent like Claude control the Monome norns?
Yes: SynthHub's hosted MCP server knows the Monome norns's MIDI map, and its browser relay lets the agent send it parameter changes or load a sound, each sound change confirmed by you.
