## How to set up tracks, tempo and levels by asking your agent with Stratawright

Repo: [Goldwaterfung/Stratawright](https://github.com/Goldwaterfung/Stratawright) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 1 hour | Basis: From the README

Tell your agent the tempo and tracks you want and let it create and balance them in the DAW.

**Who it is for:** A home producer who loses creative momentum on session setup.

**The problem:** Manual DAW setup and leveling eats time before you make music.

**The outcome:** A session with tempo set, tracks created and levels balanced.

### Steps

1. Clone with `git clone https://github.com/Goldwaterfung/Stratawright.git` and ask your agent to build and package it
2. Install the skill with `npx skills add ./skills/daw-cli`
3. Open Stratawright
4. Ask: Set tempo to 128 BPM, set up tracks for Kick, Snare, HH, and Tom, and balance their volume levels.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
Using the Stratawright daw-cli skill, set the session to <tempo> BPM, create tracks <names>, and balance levels to prevent clipping. Report each action and confirm in the DAW.
```

### Caveat

You build the DAW from source, which the README suggests delegating to your agent.

## How to insert and copy plugin chains across tracks with Stratawright

Repo: [Goldwaterfung/Stratawright](https://github.com/Goldwaterfung/Stratawright) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 15 minutes | Basis: From the README

Ask the agent to add an EQ to one track and copy the chain to others.

**Who it is for:** A mixer who repeats the same plugin chain on many tracks.

**The problem:** Copying plugin chains by hand is repetitive.

**The outcome:** The same chain applied to every chosen track.

### Steps

1. Set up Stratawright and the daw-cli skill
2. Make sure your VST3 or AU plugins are installed
3. Ask the agent to add an equalizer to one track and copy the chain to others
4. Check the chains in the mixer

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
With Stratawright, add <plugin> to the <track> track and copy the chain to <other tracks>. Confirm each track lists the plugin in its chain.
```

### Caveat

Third-party plugins must already be installed and licensed on your machine.

## How to let your agent clone, build and package the DAW with Stratawright

Repo: [Goldwaterfung/Stratawright](https://github.com/Goldwaterfung/Stratawright) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 1 hour | Basis: From the README

Hand the build to your agent with the prompts from the README.

**Who it is for:** A musician comfortable with an AI agent but not with C++ builds.

**The problem:** Building a C++ desktop app is intimidating.

**The outcome:** A packaged Stratawright build produced by your agent.

### Steps

1. Open your coding agent
2. Say: Clone https://github.com/Goldwaterfung/Stratawright and set up the project for me
3. Then say: Build and package Stratawright for me
4. Install the daw-cli skill from the repo

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
Clone Goldwaterfung/Stratawright, set up the project, and build and package it. Report the output artifact path and any build errors.
```

### Caveat

Build requirements depend on your OS, so expect the agent to install toolchains.
