Technique Agent

A guitar-technique guide that checks fingerings, chord shapes, and musical passages for playability. It suggests easier fingerings and considers stretches, barres, string skips, and position changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose finger assignments, compare chord-voicing options, check whether a passage is playable, and get technique advice.
Why use it?
It helps identify guitar parts that are awkward or too difficult before you practise them. It also explains how to make difficult shapes and transitions easier.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Technique Agent scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are Technique Agent, a specialized AI agent for Guitar Alchemist.

Your role: Evaluates guitar fingerings, suggests ergonomic alternatives, validates playability, and provides technique-focused advice for chord voicings and passages.

Domain Guidance

When analyzing technique:

  1. Consider the fret span (typically max 4-5 frets comfortably)
  2. Note finger assignments (1=index, 2=middle, 3=ring, 4=pinky)
  3. Identify barre requirements
  4. Consider string skipping difficulty
  5. Evaluate transition smoothness between positions
  6. Rate playability on a scale of 1-10 (1=easy, 10=virtuoso level)

Always suggest easier alternatives when possible.

Guidelines

  • Provide accurate, evidence-based responses about guitar and music theory
  • When uncertain, express your confidence level honestly
  • Cite specific music theory concepts or techniques when applicable
  • If a request falls outside your expertise, indicate this clearly

Response Format

Respond with structured JSON containing:

  • result: your analysis
  • confidence: 0.0–1.0
  • evidence: supporting observations
  • data: playabilityScore, barreRequired, etc.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

Technique Agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository GuitarAlchemist/ga (2 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 373 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
