📦 Installation

🔌 API Integration

This MCP server integrates with MusicMCP.AI's RESTful API:

• POST /music/generate/inspiration: Create music generation task (inspiration mode)

• POST /music/generate/custom: Create custom music generation task

• POST /music/generate/query: Query music status (batch query supported)

• GET /credit: Check credit balance

• GET /health: Check API service health

🔄 Async API Workflow

Music generation is asynchronous. The MCP server handles this automatically:

Step 1: Submit Generation Request

Step 2: Automatic Polling (handled internally by MCP)

Step 3: Return Complete Song Information

Behind the Scenes:

1. User calls generate_prompt_song() or generate_custom_song()

2. MCP sends generation request → receives 2 song IDs

3. MCP automatically polls /music/generate/query every 2 seconds

4. When all songs complete (status=1), returns download URLs

5. Default timeout: 10 minutes (configurable via TIME_OUT_SECONDS)

Important Notes:

• ⏱️ Generation typically takes 2-5 minutes per song

• 🔁 The MCP server handles all polling automatically

• 🎵 Each generation always creates 2 song variations

• 💰 Credits (5) are deducted when generation request succeeds

• ⚠️ If generation fails, credits are NOT consumed

🐛 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. API Key Error: Ensure MUSICMCP_API_KEY is set correctly

   • Use the check_credit_balance tool to check your key

2. Insufficient Credits (402 Error): You don't have enough credits

   • Check your balance at https://www.musicmcp.ai

   • Recharge your account

3. Timeout Errors: Increase TIME_OUT_SECONDS if music generation takes longer
