if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'song-form' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'song-form' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named song-form already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/melodic-software/claude-code-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '677e7988f432dacb5e2d4df2b124f96da8e8f9f3' -- 'plugins/songwriting/skills/song-form' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/songwriting/skills/song-form' ~/.agents/skills/'song-form' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
