# Last.fm MCP Server

A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) (MCP) server for Last.fm. Gives AI assistants access to your listening history, music discovery, and detailed track/artist/album information.

Runs on Cloudflare Workers with OAuth 2.0 authentication. Public tools (track info, artist info, similar artists) work without signing in -- connect your Last.fm account to access personal listening data.

## Quick start

### Claude.ai / Claude Desktop

1. Open **Settings** -> **Connectors** -> **Add Custom Connector**
2. Enter `https://lastfm-mcp.com/mcp`
3. Sign in to Last.fm when prompted

### Claude Code

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http lastfm "https://lastfm-mcp.com/mcp"
```

### Windsurf

Add to `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lastfm": {
      "serverUrl": "https://lastfm-mcp.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### Other MCP clients

For clients that don't support remote servers directly (Continue.dev, Zed, etc.), use `mcp-remote`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lastfm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://lastfm-mcp.com/mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

### MCP Inspector

```bash
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector https://lastfm-mcp.com/mcp
```

## Authentication

The server uses OAuth 2.0. When you connect from a supported client, your browser opens to Last.fm to authorize access. Tokens persist across sessions.

Public tools work without signing in. You only need to connect your account for personal listening data.
