Claude loads it when the task matches- ismail
Compose, arrange, sound-design, mix and recreate music with the ismail agent DAW (MCP tools mcp__ismail__*, or `python -m ismail -p <project> <op>`). Use when the user asks to make a song, beat, loop, track, jingle, soundtrack cue, remix or cover, to recreate or match a reference recording, to design a sound or instrument (including making acoustic instruments sound real), to master a song, to fix how a render sounds (muddy, harsh, cluttered, flat, off-tempo), to make a music video for a finished song (ismail.video), or to play, jam, DJ or perform music live in real time (live_* tools), and ismail is available. It makes you gather examples of the target sound, plan a Session Sheet before writing notes, model real instruments on measured examples, read every render through ismail's text analysis, judge reference matches with baseline-scored comparisons, not by feel, then master and ask what the user hears. Not for music theory questions with no rendering, lyrics-only writing, or editing audio in other DAWs.
