What this skill does

# Tim Henson Preset Generator

This skill separates responsibilities:

- AI decides the tone and exact parameter overrides.
- Script writes the binary preset file safely.

## Rules

1. Never edit existing source presets.
2. Always create a new file in `/Library/Audio/Presets/Neural DSP/Archetype Tim Henson X/AI generated/`.
3. Use `Default.xml` as fallback template when no template path is provided.
4. JSON overrides are read from `stdin`.
5. Unknown parameter keys are rejected.

## Commands

Generate from stdin JSON and optional template:

```bash
python3 "/Users/arjunmahishi/.config/opencode/skills/tim-henson-presets/tim_henson_skill.py" generate --name "my_preset" --template "/Library/Audio/Presets/Neural DSP/Archetype Tim Henson X/User/clean_fingerstyle.xml"
```

Generate from fallback `Default.xml`:

```bash
python3 "/Users/arjunmahishi/.config/opencode/skills/tim-henson-presets/tim_henson_skill.py" generate --name "my_preset"
```

Build index cache:

```bash
python3 "/Users/arjunmahishi/.config/opencode/skills/tim-henson-presets/tim_henson_skill.py" index
```

Print authoritative parameter names from a template:

```bash
python3 "/Users/arjunmahishi/.config/opencode/skills/tim-henson-presets/tim_henson_skill.py" params
```

## JSON Input Shape

The script reads a JSON object from stdin where keys are parameter names and values are booleans, numbers, or strings.

```json
{
  "reverbActive": true,
  "reverbMix": 0.42,
  "delayTime": 500,
  "leadGain": 0.73
}
```
