Description

Thank you very much for having such a tool. It has been a great help to me. However, if I only want to download the cover image, how should I set it up? Or is it currently not possible to download only the cover image? I've checked the README and used the -h command, but I couldn't find any relevant information. I'm not sure if I missed it. I usually use Docker to start the tool.

Research direction
The issue requests a feature to download only the album cover image. To implement, explore the codebase in src/ to understand how album art is currently fetched and saved. Look for existing download flags in CLI argument parsing (likely using yargs or similar). A new flag like ' cover only' could skip song download and only retrieve the cover. Check the streaming service adapters (Spotify, Apple Music) to see how cover art URLs are obtained. Also consider adding a test for the new flag. Refer to existing contributions in pull requests for guidance on code style.
