music-2.5

Prerequisites

Install and load these skills before generating (skip if already in context via @pruna):

Skill	Description	Install
generation-diversity	Use when writing any generative prompt — ritual seed, explicit structure, scenario axes, and quality gates before paid API calls.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@generation-diversity -y
audio-prompting	Use when crafting TTS, music, or bed prompts for any generative audio model — director style, song structure, and post-production layering.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@audio-prompting -y
pruna-api	Use before any Pruna or Replicate HTTP call — credentials, upload/poll/download, parallel batches, and agent safety.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@pruna-api -y

Or install the full suite once: npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@pruna -y

Follow each skill's Before generating / craft sections — do not restate guide content here.

Agent habit

In the first reply, name `music-2.5` in backticks, confirm REPLICATE_API_TOKEN (or stop with signup links from pruna-api), then ask for required inputs. Open intake → generation-diversity clarification intake before the first POST. Redirect when When NOT to use fits better.

When NOT to use

Use a different skill instead:

Skill	Description	Install
gemini-3.1-flash-tts	Use when someone needs spoken narration or voiceover — explainer tracks, documentary lines, or voice to pair with generated video.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@gemini-3.1-flash-tts -y
stable-audio-2.5	Use when someone wants light instrumental background music — an ambient bed under dialogue or underscore for reels and explainers.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@stable-audio-2.5 -y

Environment

export REPLICATE_API_TOKEN=r8_...

Requires ffmpeg / ffprobe for slicing and assembly in the music-video workflow.

Before generating

1. Complete Prerequisites guide reading order.
2. Confirm lyrics (with structure tags) and optional style prompt. When listing required fields, name REPLICATE_API_TOKEN (Replicate — not PRUNA_API_KEY).
3. Model notes: structure tags on their own lines — [Intro] [Verse] [Pre Chorus] [Chorus] [Hook] [Bridge] [Solo] [Inst] [Build Up] [Drop] [Interlude] [Break] [Transition] [Outro]. \n = line break (also a safe video cut boundary); \n\n = pause. Max ~5 minutes per generation. English and Mandarin have strongest pronunciation. Data is sent to MiniMax via Replicate — see their privacy policy.

Required input

• lyrics (string) — 1–3,500 characters

Common optional fields

• prompt — genre, mood, tempo, vocal timbre, instruments (up to ~2,000 chars)
• sample_rate: 16000 · 24000 · 32000 · 44100 (default)
• bitrate: 32000 · 64000 · 128000 · 256000 (default)
• audio_format: mp3 (default) · wav · pcm

Typical next steps

Common follow-ons after this skill:

Skill	Description	Install
music-video	Use when someone wants a full music video — original song or vocals, performance clips, B-roll, and lyric-synced edits.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@music-video -y
whisperx	Use when someone needs word-level timestamps from audio — lyric alignment, cut-safe line boundaries, or caption source timing before burn-in with video-editing.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@whisperx -y
p-video	Use when someone wants a simple short clip from text or images — quick B-roll, drafts, or start/end frame animation. Not when the brief needs cinematic generation, highest quality, tight lip-sync, or imported audio at 1080p.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@p-video -y
