Step-by-step guide for building a YUP audio plugin from scratch. Use when the user asks "how do I create a YUP plugin", "set up a YUP project", "add parameters to my YUP plugin", "package my CLAP or VST3", or "how do I wire up AudioParameterHandle". Trigger on phrases like "create a YUP plugin", "YUP CMake setup", "yup_audio_plugin", "AudioParameterBuilder", "AudioParameterHandle", or "createPluginProcessor".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# YUP Audio Plugin - Build Guide
Five steps from empty folder to a working CLAP/VST3/standalone plugin. Do each step in order; skip none.
## Step 1 - Project setup (CMake + YUP)
- Add YUP as a git submodule or `FetchContent` target; disable examples/tests for plugin projects unless needed.
- Use `yup_audio_plugin (...)` to declare the plugin target.
- Set `TARGET_NAME`, `TARGET_VERSION`, `TARGET_APP_ID`, `TARGET_APP_NAMESPACE`, and `TARGET_CXX_STANDARD 20`.
- Set plugin metadata in the same call: `PLUGIN_ID`, `PLUGIN_NAME`, `PLUGIN_VENDOR`, `PLUGIN_VERSION`, `PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION`, `PLUGIN_IS_SYNTH`, and `PLUGIN_IS_MONO`.
- Enable only the formats you need: `PLUGIN_CREATE_CLAP`, `PLUGIN_CREATE_VST3`, `PLUGIN_CREATE_STANDALONE`.
- Link at least `yup::yup_gui` and `yup::yup_audio_processors` in `MODULES`.
- Add plugin sources to `${target_name}_shared`; the format targets link against that shared interface target.
## Step 2 - AudioProcessor skeleton
- Subclass `yup::AudioProcessor`.
- Construct it with a processor name and immutable `yup::AudioBusLayout`, e.g. stereo output:

How to install
mdr add gourdja/sonic-skills/yup-guide@sha256:963335d384cc2bfaThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260516.f532e94, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
