Mcp Apple Music
Wraps the Apple Music API to give Claude full control over your library and the catalog. Exposes eleven tools: search both the public catalog and your personal collection, list songs/albums/artists, create and populate playlists, pull recently played tracks, and fetch personalized recommendations. Setup requires a free Apple Developer account and a MusicKit key to generate a JWT developer token, plus a one-time browser OAuth flow to grab your user token. Both are stored locally and auto-renewed. Note that playback control isn't available since Apple's REST API doesn't expose it, but everything else for library management and discovery works through the MCP transport. Built collaboratively by the author and Claude.
