What problem does it solve? Building Max/MSP and Max for Live patches often requires knowing which objects to use, how they connect, and what pitfalls to avoid. This Skill provides structured access to a canonical patch knowledge database so you can look up patterns, examples, object roles, and gotchas instead of guessing or manually inspecting .amxd files. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Similarity and Search Queries: Find relevant patches with similar and search commands, then inspect promising results with details. - Gotcha and Role Lookup: Retrieve known pitfalls for specific objects (e.g., gotchas jit.catch~) and understand object roles before wiring connections. - Connection Graph Queries: Explore how objects connect using connects-to, connects-from, find, and chain commands. - Use Case: Before building an audio visualization patch, run similar "visualize audio", review details on the best match, check gotchas for the involved jitter objects, and verify connections with connects-to. ## Quick Start Set the MAX4LIVE_MCP_ROOT environment variable to your local Max4Live-MCP checkout and ask the agent to query the patch database for patches similar to your intended design.
