Spotify MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides Spotify integration with OAuth authorization flow based on the Model Context Protocol specification.

Files

  • index.ts - MCP server setup and tool registration with StreamableHTTPServerTransport

  • spotify.ts - Spotify API service with token management

  • auth.ts - BetterAuth configuration with Drizzle adapter

  • db/ - Database schema and connection using Drizzle ORMotocol (MCP) server that provides Spotify integration with OAuth authorization flow based on the Model Context Protocol specification.

Features

  • OAuth Authorization Flow: Implements MCP's authorization specification with Spotify OAuth

  • Streaming HTTP Transport: Uses MCP's StreamableHTTPServerTransport for efficient communication

  • Automatic Token Refresh: Handles Spotify access token expiration and refresh automatically

  • Simple Architecture: Clean separation between authentication, Spotify API calls, and MCP tools

  • Comprehensive Spotify Tools: Multiple tools for controlling Spotify playback

  • Error Handling: Graceful handling of API errors and token issues

  • Session Management: Secure session handling with Better Auth

Setup

  1. Set environment variables:

    SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=your_spotify_client_id
    SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=your_spotify_client_secret
  2. Configure database connection in db/index.ts

  3. Run database migrations:

    bun run drizzle-kit push
  4. Start the server:

    bun run index.ts

Usage

  1. Navigate to http://localhost:3000/sign-in to authenticate with Spotify

  2. Use the MCP tools through your MCP client

  3. The server automatically handles token refresh in the background

Technical Notes

  • Uses BetterAuth with Drizzle adapter for OAuth flow with Spotify

  • Implements the MCP Authorization specification for secure authentication

  • Utilizes StreamableHTTPServerTransport for efficient communication

  • Stores tokens securely in PostgreSQL database via Drizzle ORM

  • Clean separation of concerns between authentication, API calls, and MCP tools
