Clipboard

Your Task

Input: $ARGUMENTS

Copy content from track files to the system clipboard for pasting into Suno or other tools.

Clipboard Skill

Copy specific sections from track files directly to your clipboard.

Step 1: Detect Platform & Check Clipboard Tool

Run detection:

if command -v pbcopy >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "macOS"
elif command -v clip.exe >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "WSL"
elif command -v xclip >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "Linux-xclip"
elif command -v xsel >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "Linux-xsel"
else
  echo "NONE"
fi

If NONE:

Error: No clipboard utility found.

Install instructions:
- macOS: pbcopy (built-in)
- Linux: sudo apt install xclip
- WSL: clip.exe (built-in)

Step 2: Parse Arguments

Expected format: <content-type> <album-name> <track-number>

Content types:

• lyrics - Suno Lyrics Box
• style - Suno Style Box (auto-appends Exclude Styles if present)
• exclude - Exclude Styles only (negative prompts)
• streaming-lyrics - Streaming Lyrics (for distributors)
• all - All Suno inputs (Style + Exclude + Lyrics combined)
• suno - JSON object (title, style, exclude_styles, lyrics) for Suno auto-fill via Tampermonkey

Examples:

• /clipboard lyrics sample-album 03
• /clipboard style sample-album 05
• /clipboard streaming-lyrics sample-album 02
• /clipboard all sample-album 01

If arguments are missing:

Usage: /clipboard <content-type> <album-name> <track-number>

Content types: lyrics, style, exclude, streaming-lyrics, all, suno

Example: /clipboard lyrics sample-album 03

Step 3: Extract Content via MCP

Call format_for_clipboard(album_slug, track_slug, content_type) — extracts and formats the requested content in one call.

• content_type: "lyrics", "style", "exclude", "streaming", "all", or "suno"
• Returns the formatted content ready for clipboard
• Handles track resolution, section extraction, and formatting automatically

If track not found: MCP returns an error with available tracks.

Step 6: Copy to Clipboard

Use the detected platform's clipboard command:

Example (use printf '%s' to safely handle special characters in lyrics):

printf '%s' "$content" | pbcopy  # macOS
printf '%s' "$content" | xclip -selection clipboard  # Linux

Step 7: Confirm

Report:

✓ Copied to clipboard: {content-type} from track {track-number}
  Album: {album}
  Track: {track-filename}

Error Handling

Track file not found:

Error: Track {track-number} not found in album {album}

Available tracks:
- 01-track-name.md
- 02-track-name.md

Content section not found:

Error: {content-type} section not found in track {track-number}

The track file may not have this section yet.

Config missing:

Error: Config not found at ~/.bitwize-music/config.yaml
Run /configure to set up.

Implementation Notes

Clipboard Detection:

• Check multiple tools in order of preference
• WSL has clip.exe which works from Linux subsystem
• Linux users may have either xclip or xsel

Content Extraction:

• MCP format_for_clipboard handles all section extraction and formatting
• No manual file parsing needed

Multiple Matches:

• If track number matches multiple files (shouldn't happen), use the first match
• Warn user if directory structure looks wrong
