MaxMCP

Organize and tidy up Max/MSP patch layout. Use this skill when: - User asks to organize, tidy, or clean up a patch layout - After completing a series of patch edits (add/remove/connect objects) - Automatically triggered for partial layout adjustment after individual operations - Optimizing patchcord routing and object positioning

Guidelines for creating Max/MSP patches with MaxMCP. Use this skill when: - Creating new Max patches via MaxMCP - Adding Max objects with add_max_object - Connecting objects with connect_max_objects or managing patchcords - Planning patch layout and organization - Building audio/MIDI processing patches - Designing presentation mode UI (panels, colors, object visibility) - Setting varnames or naming conventions for Max objects - Asking about MaxMCP patch creation best practices

Max for Live development techniques and best practices. Use this skill when: - Accessing Ableton Live parameters from Max for Live (Live Object Model) - Using live.path, live.object, live.observer - Building dynamic LOM paths or monitoring Live set properties - Managing M4L device namespaces (

Access Max/MSP built-in resources. Use when: - User asks about Max objects ("How do I use cycle~?") - User wants to find examples or snippets - User needs object reference information (inlets, outlets, methods)

Max/MSP implementation techniques and best practices. Use this skill when: - Working with poly~ for polyphonic or parallel processing - Using bpatcher for modular patch design - Managing parameters with pattr/pattrstorage - Building audio signal chains or MIDI processing logic - Handling sampling rate dependent behavior - Multi-stage initialization patterns (loadbang, delay chains)
