What is Spotify MCP?

Spotify MCP is a Model Control Protocol (MCP) integration that lets AI assistants control Spotify playback. It connects to the Spotify Web API via the Spotipy library, enabling search, play, and pause functions.

How to use Spotify MCP?

Clone the repository, set up a virtual environment with uv venv, install dependencies with uv sync, then configure your Spotify Client ID and Secret in main.py. Run the server with python main.py; the first launch opens a browser for Spotify login and authorization.
