AudioPod MCP Server

Hosted Model Context Protocol server for AudioPod's audio AI. Give any MCP-capable agent — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Continue, Cline, Goose, Codex — audio tools over a remote endpoint. No install, no local models, no GPU.

Registry names (official MCP Registry): ai.audiopod/audiopod (full, server.json) and ai.audiopod/audiopod-core (core, server-core.json).

Installing with an agent? llms-install.md is the unattended-install guide — config for each client, how to verify, and the failures to expect.

Using a coding agent? AudiopodAI/audiopod-plugins wraps this server plus fourteen task skills as a one-command install for the major agent CLIs and editors.

Prefer HTTP? The same capabilities are a REST API, and the public Getting Started collection reaches a real 200 in two requests with no account and no API key. More about the collections.

Tools

Long-running tools return a job_id; poll with check_job_status.

Add it

Claude Code (OAuth sign-in on first use; swap in /core for the core endpoint)

claude mcp add --transport http audiopod https://mcp.audiopod.ai --scope user

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Continue / Cline — add to your mcpServers config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "audiopod": { "url": "https://mcp.audiopod.ai" }
  }
}

Headless / CI — skip OAuth with an API key header:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "audiopod": {
      "url": "https://mcp.audiopod.ai",
      "headers": { "X-API-Key": "ap_YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Try it (raw JSON-RPC)

# List tools
curl -s https://mcp.audiopod.ai \
  -H "X-API-Key: ap_YOUR_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

# Text to speech

Three manifests live here and they are not interchangeable: server.json and server-core.json are the official registry entries (registry schema) for the full and core endpoints, server-card.json is the MCP server card — a reference copy, since the live card is served at the Discovery URL above.
