Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Synthesize and render MIDI/MusicXML files to audio (WAV/MP3) and generate Strudel live-coding patterns for creative music manipulation. Uses analysis data (tempo, key, chords, dynamics) from audio-to-midi for intelligent ghost-note removal and accurate reproduction. Two workflows: (1) Convert MIDI/MusicXML to Strudel/TidalCycles code with note durations for interactive tweaking in the browser at strudel.cc, (2) Render MIDI/MusicXML to WAV/MP3 with FluidSynth or built-in synthesis, with controls…

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'midi-synth' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'midi-synth' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named midi-synth already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/maystudios/claude-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '25145cf85b0709dcc2f7a40a7035c7527c137a6c' -- 'midi-synth' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'midi-synth' ~/.agents/skills/'midi-synth' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'midi-synth' ~/.claude/skills/'midi-synth' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
