| description | Work inside one artist's folder — read and update their context, brand, songs, and releases. Use for "organize [artist]'s files", "update [artist]'s brand/context", "what's in [artist]'s workspace", or any task about a named artist's files. To list your whole roster use recoup-roster-list-artists; for research/metrics on an artist use recoup-research-artist-overview. |
Recoup — Manage Artist
Operate inside an existing artist's workspace at artists/{artist-slug}/.
RECOUP.md (frontmatter artistName/artistSlug/artistId) is the identity file.
Layout
context/artist.md (who they are — static), context/audience.md (static),
context/images/face-guide.png, releases/{slug}/RELEASE.md (the release master
doc), songs/{slug}/{slug}.mp3. Nothing is pre-created — add files when real
content arrives; never write placeholder tokens.
Static vs dynamic context
Update artist.md/audience.md deliberately (they're the source of truth other
skills read); treat research/release docs as time-bound — archive when stale.
Commit {what}: {why}; the git log is the per-artist progress log.
Guardrails
- No placeholder data in artist files — real content or leave the section out.
- Don't overwrite static context casually —
artist.md changes are deliberate
evolutions; note the why in the commit.
- Never invent a roster/artist — empty filesystem ≠ empty roster; confirm via
recoup-platform-api-access first.
