Song Sergeant
Song Sergeant is a Mac music library utility for finding duplicate tracks, fixing inconsistent metadata, and reconnecting missing songs in an iTunes library.
What is Song Sergeant?
Song Sergeant is a Mac music library management app that helps users clean up and repair an iTunes music collection. It is designed for people who want to remove duplicate tracks, correct inconsistent artist or album names, and deal with songs that are missing from their expected locations. The app focuses on common library-maintenance tasks such as merging song information, preserving playlists while resolving duplicates, and locating orphaned audio files that exist in the music folder but are not properly linked in the library. It fits best into workflows for maintaining older local music collections rather than modern streaming-first libraries. Song Sergeant is published by LairWare Software and is aimed at users who organize and manage music files directly on macOS.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
Song Sergeant is a legitimate music library utility for macOS. Access to your music library and related folders is normal for its purpose, since it needs to inspect song files and library information to detect duplicates and repair links. Because it can change library organization and remove duplicate entries, it is wise to keep a current backup of your music collection or library database before making large automatic changes.
Recommendation: Keep Song Sergeant if you actively maintain a local iTunes music library and use it to clean duplicates or repair missing tracks. If you no longer manage a local music collection this way, you can remove it without affecting macOS itself, though you may lose the app’s cleanup and repair tools.
