API Integration

This MCP server integrates with MusicMCP.AI's RESTful API:

• POST /music/generate/inspiration: Create music generation task (inspiration mode)
• POST /music/generate/custom: Create custom music generation task
• POST /music/generate/query: Query music status (batch query supported)
• GET /credit: Check credit balance
• GET /health: Check API service health

Async API Workflow

Music generation is asynchronous. The MCP server handles this automatically:

Step 1: Submit Generation Request

POST /music/generate/inspiration or /music/generate/custom
 Returns: {"code": 200, "data": {"ids": ["id1", "id2"]}}

Step 2: Automatic Polling (handled internally by MCP)

POST /music/generate/query with {"ids": ["id1", "id2"]}
 Polls every 2 seconds until status = 1 (completed)
 Song status: 0 = Failed, 1 = Completed, 2 = In Progress

Step 3: Return Complete Song Information

Once all songs are completed, returns full details:
- songName, songUrl, imgUrl, duration, tags, etc.

Behind the Scenes:

1. User calls generate_prompt_song() or generate_custom_song()
2. MCP sends generation request receives 2 song IDs
3. MCP automatically polls /music/generate/query every 2 seconds
4. When all songs complete (status=1), returns download URLs
5. Default timeout: 10 minutes (configurable via TIME_OUT_SECONDS)

Important Notes:

• Generation typically takes 2-5 minutes per song
• The MCP server handles all polling automatically
• Each generation always creates 2 song variations
• Credits (5) are deducted when generation request succeeds
• If generation fails, credits are NOT consumed

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. API Key Error: Ensure MUSICMCP_API_KEY is set correctly

   • Use the check_credit_balance tool to check your key

2. Insufficient Credits (402 Error): You don't have enough credits

   • Check your balance at https://www.musicmcp.ai
   • Recharge your account

3. Timeout Errors: Increase TIME_OUT_SECONDS if music generation takes longer
