SC 01Overview

What it does

The acestep skill wraps a shell script that calls an ACE-Step 1.5 API server (pointed at localhost by default) for text-to-music, songs with lyrics, continuation and repainting, and saves the audio to an acestep_output folder. acestep-songwriting helps write the style caption, lyrics, tempo and structure first; acestep-lyrics-transcription turns a song into timestamped LRC, SRT or JSON through the OpenAI Whisper or ElevenLabs Scribe API; acestep-thumbnail makes cover art with the Gemini API; acestep-simplemv renders an MP4 with a waveform and synced lyrics, and acestep-docs bundles ACE-Step setup and troubleshooting notes. You must run your own ACE-Step 1.5 server (the README gives GPU memory guidance), supply API keys for the transcription and cover-art steps, and have Node.js and ffmpeg for the video render.

SC 02Install

How to install it

  • 01skills CLI, for Claude Code, Codex and others

    The open skills CLI from Vercel Labs installs a skill from a GitHub repo into the folder each agent expects. It asks which skills and which agents you want, and it installs for the current project unless you add the -g flag, which installs for your user account. Add --list to see what a repo contains before you install anything.

    npx skills add ace-step/ace-step-skills
  • 02Claude Code, skills folder

    Copy the skill's folder, the one that holds SKILL.md, into ~/.claude/skills/ to use it in every project on your machine, or into .claude/skills/ in a repository to use it there and share it by committing it. Claude Code picks up changes to these folders during a session. If the folder did not exist when the session started, run /reload-skills.

  • 03Claude Code, plugin marketplace

    Some repos publish a plugin marketplace, a .claude-plugin/marketplace.json file. Add it in Claude Code, then install a plugin from it with /plugin install plugin-name@marketplace-name. Plugins can bundle hooks and MCP servers along with skills, so read the details panel before you confirm.

    /plugin marketplace add ace-step/ace-step-skills
  • 04Codex, skills folder or $skill-installer

    Codex reads skills from .agents/skills in your working folder and its parent folders up to the repository root, and from $HOME/.agents/skills for every repository. Copy the skill's folder into one of them, or run $skill-installer inside Codex and ask it to install from the repo. Codex detects new skills automatically and needs a restart only if one does not appear.

We could not quote an install command from this repo's README. The commands listed here are the generic ones for any skill repository and may not apply, so check the README first.
