System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

The skill removes the manual, error‑prone process of setting up, coding, building, and validating C++ externals for Max/MSP, letting developers focus on functionality rather than boilerplate and build issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scaffolding: Generates full Min‑DevKit project structure for message, DSP, or scheduler externals.
  • Code Generation: Produces archetype‑specific C++ source ready for compilation.
  • Automated Build & Fix: Runs cmake/make loops with error parsing and auto‑correction up to five attempts.
  • Validation: Checks the resulting .mxo bundle for correct Mach‑O type and arm64 architecture.
  • Help Patch Creation: Builds demonstration .maxhelp patches for the new external.
  • Critic Review: Runs structural code reviews to catch common issues.

Quick Start

Use the max‑ext‑agent skill to create a new DSP external called 'myfilter'.
