SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Plans and executes end-to-end CLAP plugin support for LocusQ while preserving existing VST3/AU/Standalone behavior.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Integrate CLAP output support via clap-juce-extensions without disrupting current formats.
  • Establish an adapter boundary that translates CLAP host events into internal DSP events with deterministic behavior.
  • Define CI, QA, and release-readiness processes, including validation lanes and documentation updates for CLAP artifacts.

Quick Start

Plan the CLAP scope, wire the adapter in the build, and run the validation lanes to produce a release-ready CLAP artifact.

Frequently Asked Questions about clap-plugin-lifecycle

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add CLAP plugin support to a JUCE project without breaking existing VST3 or AU builds?▼

To add CLAP plugin support, integrate clap-juce-extensions to wire the adapter into your build, ensuring existing VST3, AU, and standalone formats remain undisrupted while establishing an adapter boundary for host events.

What is a CLAP adapter boundary and how does it handle host events for audio plugins?▼

A CLAP adapter boundary translates incoming CLAP host events into internal DSP events, enforcing deterministic runtime behavior and maintaining lock-free telemetry boundaries as defined by CLAP contract guidelines.

How do I set up CI validation lanes for CLAP plugin artifacts?▼

Set up CI validation lanes by defining build and QA processes that execute CLAP discovery, validate artifact stability, and ensure release-ready outputs through automated checks within your continuous integration pipeline.

Can I use clap-juce-extensions to build CLAP plugins for multiple host environments?▼

Yes, clap-juce-extensions enables CLAP output support for multiple host environments by establishing host compatibility checks and an adapter that ensures deterministic behavior across different audio plugin hosts.

What are the limitations of integrating CLAP support alongside existing audio plugin formats?▼

The primary limitation is preserving existing format behavior while meeting CLAP's deterministic runtime requirements, necessitating strict lock-free telemetry boundaries and comprehensive validation lanes to prevent regressions.

Does CLAP plugin support require lock-free telemetry boundaries for DSP processing?▼

Yes, CLAP plugin support requires lock-free telemetry boundaries for DSP processing to satisfy deterministic runtime behavior guarantees defined in CLAP plans and contract guidelines.
