Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/bitwize-music-studio/claude-ai-music-skills --skill configure
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads configure automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Your Task

Input: $ARGUMENTS

Route based on argument:

  • setup or no argument → Interactive first-time setup
  • edit → Edit specific settings
  • show → Display current configuration
  • validate → Check config for issues
  • reset → Delete config and start fresh

Plugin Configuration Skill

You help users set up and manage their ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml configuration.

Config Location

~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml

Commands

/configure or /configure setup

Interactive first-time setup. Guide user through creating their config.

Steps:

  1. Check if ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml exists
  2. If exists, ask if they want to overwrite or edit instead
  3. If creating new:
    • Create ~/.bitwize-music/ directory if needed
    • Ask for each required setting interactively
    • Write the config file
    • Validate the result

Required settings to ask:

  1. artist.name - "What's your artist/project name?"
  2. paths.content_root - "Where should albums and projects be stored? (e.g., ~/music-projects)"
  3. paths.audio_root - "Where should mastered audio files go? (e.g., ~/music-projects/audio)"
  4. paths.documents_root - "Where should research documents/PDFs go? (e.g., ~/music-projects/documents)"

Optional settings: 5. artist.genres - "What are your primary genres? (comma-separated, or skip)" 6. urls.soundcloud - "SoundCloud profile URL? (or skip)"

Step 5: Overrides Directory (Optional)

Ask:

You can optionally provide a path to a directory containing override files. This is where you can customize workflows and skills without plugin update conflicts.

Override files you can create:

  • CLAUDE.md (custom workflow instructions)
  • pronunciation-guide.md (artist names, character names)
  • explicit-words.md (custom explicit word list)

Default: ~/music-projects/overrides

Enter path (or press Enter to use default):

If user provides path:

  • Add to config: paths.overrides: "[user-path]"

If user presses Enter (accepts default):

  • Add to config: paths.overrides: "~/music-projects/overrides"
  • Tell user: "Note: Directory doesn't need to exist yet. Create override files when you want to customize."

Step 6: Album Ideas File (Optional)

Ask:

You can optionally provide a path to a file for tracking album ideas. This is managed by the /bitwize-music:album-ideas skill for brainstorming and planning.

Default: ~/music-projects/IDEAS.md

Enter path (or press Enter to use default):

If user provides path:

  • Add to config: paths.ideas_file: "[user-path]"

If user presses Enter (accepts default):

  • Add to config: paths.ideas_file: "~/music-projects/IDEAS.md"
  • Tell user: "Note: File doesn't need to exist yet. The album-ideas skill creates it when first used."

Example interaction:

Let's set up your bitwize-music configuration.

What's your artist/project name?
> Neon Circuits

Where should albums and projects be stored?
(This is where your album folders, lyrics, and research will live)
> ~/music-projects

Where should mastered audio files go?
> ~/music-projects/audio

Where should research documents/PDFs go?
> ~/music-projects/documents

What are your primary genres? (comma-separated, or press Enter to skip)
> electronic, synthwave

SoundCloud profile URL? (or press Enter to skip)
> https://soundcloud.com/neon-circuits

Overrides directory path? (press Enter for default: ~/music-projects/overrides)
> [Enter]

Album ideas file path? (press Enter for default: ~/music-projects/IDEAS.md)
> [Enter]

Creating config at ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml...

✓ Configuration saved!

Your settings:
  Artist: Neon Circuits
  Content: ~/music-projects
  Audio: ~/music-projects/audio
  Documents: ~/music-projects/documents
  Genres: electronic, synthwave
  SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/neon-circuits
  Overrides: ~/music-projects/overrides (will be used if created)
  Ideas File: ~/music-projects/IDEAS.md (will be created when first used)

You're ready to start creating albums!

/configure edit

Edit specific settings without recreating the whole config.

Steps:

  1. Read existing config
  2. Show current values
  3. Ask what they want to change
  4. Update just that setting
  5. Validate and save

Example:

Current configuration:

  artist.name: Neon Circuits
  paths.content_root: ~/music-projects
  paths.audio_root: ~/music-projects/audio
  paths.documents_root: ~/music-projects/documents
  artist.genres: [electronic, synthwave]
  urls.soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/neon-circuits

What would you like to change?

/configure show

Display the current configuration in a readable format.

Steps:

  1. Read ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml
  2. Display all settings in a formatted table
  3. Note any missing required settings

Example output:

bitwize-music Configuration
Location: ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml

┌─────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Setting             │ Value                              │

└─────────────────────┴────────────────────────────────────┘

✓ All required settings present

/configure validate

Check the config for issues.

Checks:

  1. Config file exists
  2. All required fields present
  3. Paths are valid (directories exist or can be created)
  4. No syntax errors in YAML

Example output:

Validating ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml...

✓ Config file exists
✓ artist.name: Neon Circuits
✓ paths.content_root: ~/music-projects (exists)
✓ paths.audio_root: ~/music-projects/audio (exists)
✓ paths.documents_root: ~/music-projects/documents (will be created)
✓ paths.overrides: ~/music-projects/overrides (will be used if created)
✓ paths.ideas_file: ~/music-projects/IDEAS.md (will be created when first used)
✓ generation.service: suno

All checks passed!

Or with issues:

Validating ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml...

✓ Config file exists
✓ artist.name: Neon Circuits
✗ paths.content_root: not set (required)
✓ paths.audio_root: ~/music-projects/audio
✗ paths.documents_root: /invalid/path (directory doesn't exist)

2 issues found. Run /configure edit to fix.

/configure reset

Delete config and optionally start fresh.

Steps:

  1. Confirm user really wants to reset
  2. Back up existing config to config.yaml.bak
  3. Delete ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml
  4. Ask if they want to run setup now

Example:

⚠️  This will delete your configuration at ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml

Current config will be backed up to config.yaml.bak

Are you sure you want to reset? (yes/no)

If yes:

✓ Backed up to ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml.bak
✓ Deleted ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml

Config has been reset.

Would you like to set up a new config now? (yes/no)

Config Template

When creating a new config, use this structure:

# bitwize-music Plugin Configuration
# Generated by /configure

artist:
  name: "{artist_name}"
  genres:
    - "{genre1}"
    - "{genre2}"

paths:
  content_root: "{content_root}"
  audio_root: "{audio_root}"
  documents_root: "{documents_root}"
  overrides: "{overrides}"
  ideas_file: "{ideas_file}"

urls:
  soundcloud: "{soundcloud_url}"

generation:
  service: suno

Edge Cases

Config exists but is invalid YAML

  • Back up the existing file: config.yaml.bak
  • Offer to create fresh config

Directory doesn't exist

  • Offer to create it: "Directory ~/music-projects doesn't exist. Create it?"

User provides relative path

  • Expand to absolute: ./projects → /Users/name/projects
  • Or use ~ prefix: ~/projects

Remember

  • Preserve exact casing - If user says "bitwize", write "bitwize" not "Bitwize"
  • Always expand ~ in paths for display
  • Create directories if they don't exist (with permission)
  • Back up existing config before overwriting
  • Validate after any changes
  • Be friendly and explain what each setting does
