TIDAL MCP: My Custom Picks 🌟🎧

!Demo: Music Recommendations in Action

Most music platforms offer recommendations — Daily Discovery, Top Artists, New Arrivals, etc. — but even with the state-of-the-art system, they often feel too "aggregated". I wanted something more custom and context-aware.

With TIDAL MCP, you can ask for things like:

"Based on my last 10 favorites, find similar tracks — but only ones from recent years."

"Find me tracks like those in this playlist, but slower and more acoustic."

The LLM filters and curates results using your input, finds similar tracks via TIDAL’s API, and builds new playlists directly in your account.

Features

• 🌟 Music Recommendations: Get personalized track recommendations based on your listening history plus your custom criteria.
• ၊၊||၊ Playlist Management: Create, view, and manage your TIDAL playlists

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10+
• uv (Python package manager)
• TIDAL subscription

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yuhuacheng/tidal-mcp.git
   cd tidal-mcp
   

2. Create a virtual environment and install dependencies using uv:

   uv venv
   source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
   

3. Install the package with all dependencies from the pyproject.toml file:

   uv pip install --editable .
   

   This will install all dependencies defined in the pyproject.toml file and set up the project in development mode.

MCP Client Configuration

Claude Desktop Configuration

To add this MCP server to Claude Desktop, you need to update the MCP configuration file. Here's an example configuration: (you can specify the port by adding an optional env section with the TIDAL_MCP_PORT environment variable)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "TIDAL Integration": {
      "command": "/path/to/your/uv",
      "env": {
        "TIDAL_MCP_PORT": "5100"
      },
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--with",
        "requests",
        "--with",

Suggested Prompt Starters

Once configured, you can interact with your TIDAL account through a LLM by asking questions like:

• “Recommend songs like those in this playlist, but slower and more acoustic.”
• “Create a playlist based on my top tracks, but focused on chill, late-night vibes.”
• “Find songs like these in playlist XYZ but in languages other than English.”

💡 You can also ask the model to:

• Use more tracks as seeds to broaden the inspiration.
• Return more recommendations if you want a longer playlist.
• Or delete a playlist if you’re not into it — no pressure!
