Setup
On first use, read setup.md for integration guidelines.
When to Use
User wants to generate music with Suno. Agent can use hosted APIs for programmatic generation, browser automation for direct platform interaction, or guide prompt engineering for manual use.
Architecture
Memory at ~/suno/. See memory-template.md for structure.
~/suno/
├── [memory.md] # Created on first use: preferences, successful prompts
├── [projects/] # Per-project song tracking
└── [songs/] # Downloaded audio files
Quick Reference

Core Rules
1. Choose the Right Approach
| Situation | Method |
|---|---|
| Programmatic generation | Hosted API (aimusicapi.ai, EvoLink) |
| Visual interaction | Browser at suno.com |
| Just need prompts | Prompt engineering only |
2. Structure Prompts in Layers
[genre] [subgenre] [mood] [instruments] [voice] [era/influence]
Example: "indie folk melancholic acoustic guitar soft female vocals 90s"
3. Custom Lyrics Format
[Verse]
Your lyrics here
[Chorus]
Hook section
[Bridge]
Contrast
[Outro]
Ending
4. Extend Songs Strategically
Suno generates clips. Build full songs:
- Create initial clip with strong hook
- Extend with consistent style
- Add outro with ending indicators
- Target 2-4 minutes total
5. API Usage Pattern
All APIs follow: generate → poll for completion → retrieve audio URL.
Generation takes 30-90 seconds. See api.md for code examples.
API Integration
Hosted APIs (Recommended)
Two main options for programmatic generation:
aimusicapi.ai — Get API key at aimusicapi.ai EvoLink — Get API key at evolink.ai
Both provide REST APIs for generation, custom lyrics, and extensions.
See api.md for detailed code examples and endpoint documentation.
API Flow
# Conceptual flow (see api.md for real code)
1. POST /generate with prompt
2. Receive task_id
3. Poll /task/{id} every 5 seconds
4. Get audio_url when status="completed"
Browser Automation
When API isn't available or user prefers visual interaction:
Generate at suno.com
- Navigate to suno.com/create
- Choose Simple (description) or Custom (lyrics + style)
- Enter prompt or lyrics
- Click Create, wait 30-60 seconds
- Download the audio
See browser.md for detailed automation steps.
Prompt Patterns
By Genre
| Genre | Pattern |
|---|---|
| Electronic | electronic [subgenre] [mood] synth [texture] |
| Rock | [sub]rock [energy] [guitars] [vocals] [decade] |
| Pop | pop [mood] [tempo] [vocals] [production] |
| Hip Hop | hip hop [subgenre] [beat] [flow] [era] |
Voice Control
soft female vocals, ethereal, breathy
deep male vocals, baritone, raspy
instrumental, no vocals
See prompts.md and styles.md for comprehensive guides.
Common Traps
| Trap | Problem | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Vague prompts | Random output | Be specific with genre, mood |
| Contradictions | Confuses model | Consistent descriptors |
| Too many keywords | Dilutes focus | 8-12 key terms max |
| No structure tags | Awkward lyrics | Use [Verse], [Chorus] |
Data Storage
This skill creates ~/suno/ on first use:
- memory file — Preferences, successful prompts
- projects folder — Per-project tracking
- songs folder — Downloaded audio (optional)
All data stays local. API keys should be stored as environment variables.
Scope
This skill does:
- Generate music via hosted APIs (requires API key from provider)
- Navigate suno.com with browser automation
- Craft optimized prompts for Suno's model
- Write lyrics with proper structure tags
- Track projects and successful patterns locally
This skill does NOT:
- Store API keys in plain text files
- Access files outside
~/suno/ - Make requests without user direction
External Endpoints
When using hosted APIs, requests go to:
| Endpoint | Data Sent | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| api.aimusicapi.ai | Prompts, lyrics | Music generation |
| api.evolink.ai | Prompts, lyrics | Music generation |
| suno.com | Browser session | Direct platform access |
API keys authenticate requests. Prompts and lyrics are sent for processing.
Trust
By using this skill with APIs, prompts and lyrics are sent to third-party services for music generation. Only use services you trust with your creative content.
