presonus-studiolive-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.github/Skills/presonus-fat-channel-selection/SKILL.md

presonus-fat-channel-selection is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zarfld/presonus-studiolive-mcp. It costs 132 tokens per session (2,863 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for choosing and inspecting compressor and equalizer models on PreSonus StudioLive III and StudioLive 32SC mixers. It can also map mixer model names to the identifiers used in scene files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Choosing processing models for drums, bass, guitars, vocals, buses, wedges, and in-ear monitors; reading mixer state; mapping scene data; and explaining manual changes in UC Surface.
Why use it?
It helps make mixer recommendations grounded in the available hardware and avoids guessing when current mixer state or model identifiers matter.

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

presonus-fat-channel-selection 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 12d 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.

PreSonus Fat Channel Selection Skill

Purpose

Help an agent choose, inspect, or explain StudioLive III / 32SC Fat Channel compressor and EQ models without hallucinating capabilities.

This skill covers:

  • Selecting compressor and EQ model families for a channel, bus, monitor mix, or mix target.
  • Reading current model state through the StudioLive MCP resources when available.
  • Mapping model names to live indices and __classid GUIDs for scene-file work.
  • Explaining what the human operator should change in UC Surface when MCP writes are not available.

Default behavior

Use a recommendation-first workflow. Do not present every available model as an equal menu. Pick a primary recommendation, give one fallback when useful, and explain the tradeoff in source-specific terms.

When the user asks for current mixer state, inspect resources first. When the user asks for offline advice, make an explicit assumption list and proceed without MCP reads.

Required inputs

Extract these from the user request or mixer state:

  1. Source: kick, snare, bass DI, bass amp, guitar, vocal, drum bus, mix bus, aux/wedge/IEM, etc.
  2. Goal: transparent control, punch, warmth, glue, vintage color, feedback resistance, monitor comfort, or sidechain/ducking.
  3. Channel context: line input, aux, sub, FX return, main, linked stereo pair, bus, or scene file.
  4. Availability constraint: factory-only vs. Fat Channel Collection add-ons allowed. If unknown, prefer factory-safe options or mark add-on picks as “if installed.”

Ask for clarification only when a missing input changes the recommendation materially. Otherwise use sensible defaults and state them briefly.

High-level workflow

  1. Classify the request:
    • Recommend: choose model(s) and explain why.
    • Inspect: read current mixer state via MCP resources.
    • Scene/GUID: map names to live indices and __classid values.
    • Debug/validate: check whether state, schemas, or channel type support the requested operation.
  2. Check the hard constraints in Gotchas before answering.
  3. Use the quick selector below for first-pass model choice.
  4. Load reference files only as needed:
    • Read references/fat-channel-model-catalog.md for detailed model descriptions and selector tables.
    • Read references/mcp-interface-and-schemas.md for MCP tools, resources, raw key paths, schemas, and write-status details.
    • Read references/guid-mapping.md for exact GUID/class ID values.
  5. Return an actionable answer with either manual UC Surface steps or a read-only MCP inspection summary.
  6. Run the validation checklist before finalizing.

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.
