Spotify MCP

Instructions

Implementation Reference

• main.py:66-69 (handler)

  The MCP tool handler function for 'get_playback_state', decorated with @mcp.tool() for registration and execution. It delegates to SpotifyClient.get_current_playback().

  @mcp.tool()
  async def get_playback_state() -> str:
      """Get current playback information"""
      return await client.get_current_playback()

• spotify.py:148-158 (helper)

  Supporting method in SpotifyClient class that implements the core logic by calling spotipy's current_playback() to retrieve the playback state.

  async def get_current_playback(self) -> str:
      """
      Get information about current playback state.
      """
      try:
          playback = self.sp.current_playback()
          if not playback:
              return "No active playback session."
          return playback
      except Exception as e:
          return f"Error getting playback state: {str(e)}"
