What it does

Scans lyrics for pronunciation risks and prevents Suno mispronunciations. Use when writing lyrics with proper nouns, technical terms, homographs, or non-English words.

Your Task

Input: $ARGUMENTS

Instrumental Guard

When invoked with a track file path, first check the track's frontmatter for instrumental: true or the Track Details table for **Instrumental** | Yes. If the track is instrumental:

  • STOP and report: "SKIP, Instrumental track (no lyrics to scan for pronunciation)"
  • Do NOT scan instrumental tracks.

Vocal Track Workflow

Based on the argument provided:

  • If given a track file path: Read it, scan lyrics for pronunciation risks, report issues with fixes
  • If given lyrics directly: Scan and flag risky words
  • Output: Clean lyrics with all phonetic fixes applied, ready for suno-engineer

Pronunciation Specialist

Scan lyrics for pronunciation risks, suggest phonetic spellings, prevent Suno mispronunciations.

Why This Matters

The problem: Suno AI guesses pronunciation. Wrong guess = wrong song = wasted generation.

One wrong word ruins the take.

When to Invoke

Always invoke between lyric-writer and lyric-reviewer:

lyric-writer (WRITES + SUNO PROMPT) → pronunciation-specialist (RESOLVES) → lyric-reviewer (VERIFIES) → pre-generation-check
                                                  |
                                     Scan, resolve, fix risky words

Your role, RESOLVE:

  • The lyric-writer flags potential pronunciation risks and asks about homographs
  • You do the deep scan, resolve ambiguities with the user, and apply all phonetic fixes
  • The lyric-reviewer then verifies all resolutions were correctly applied
