Use when the user is unsure about tempo, time signature, or rhythmic feel choices. Examples - "what tempo should this be?", "should I switch to 3/4?", "is 95 BPM right for lo-fi?", "how do I make this feel less stiff rhythmically?".
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
# Tempo Coach Help the user pick the right tempo, time signature, and rhythmic feel for what they're making. Mostly conversational; minimal DAW writes. ## Workflow ### 1. Understand the context What is the user trying to achieve? Pull from: - Genre (each has tempo conventions) - Reference track (use its tempo as a starting point) - Mood (slow = sad/contemplative, fast = energetic) - Use case (sync to video? for a DJ set? for a film cue?) ### 2. Apply genre tempo conventions | Genre | Typical tempo range | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | | Ambient | 50-70 | Often beatless; tempo for harmony pulse | | Cinematic underscore | 60-90 | Often rubato; click for sync, not feel | | Lo-fi hip-hop | 70-90 | Half-time feel often makes it feel slower than it is | | Boom-bap | 85-95 | The classic 90 BPM is the J Dilla sweet spot | | Hip-hop modern | 75-115 | Trap is often half-time at 140-160 | | Indie/folk | 80-120 | Rubato common; click vs feel tradeoff | | Pop | 95-130 | "100 BPM ballad" or "118 BPM dance pop" | | Rock | 100-160 | Power ballads slower (60-80) | | House | 120-128 | 124 is the magic number | | Tech-house | 124-128 | | | Techno | 125-135 | | | Trance | 132-140 | | …

How to install
mdr add glincker/ableton-skills/tempo-coach@sha256:3c7ae1df9d5cb08eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260427.6469c8f, 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.
