Implementation Reference

• src/index.ts:479-499 (handler)

  Handler for create_playlist tool: fetches user data from Spotify API, then creates a new playlist via POST request to /users/{userId}/playlists with name, description, and public visibility parameters, returning the created playlist details.

  case "create_playlist": {
    const userData = await spotifyRequest("/me");
    const playlistData = await spotifyRequest(
      `/users/${userData.id}/playlists`,
      "POST",
      {
        name: args.name,
        description: args.description || "",
        public: args.public !== false,
      }
    );
  
    return {
      content: [
        {
          type: "text",
          text: `📝 Playlist created!\n\nName: ${playlistData.name}\nID: ${playlistData.id}\nURL: ${playlistData.external_urls.spotify}`,
        },
      ],
    };
  }
