Browse the global 7digital catalog via Claude Desktop

Your AI client uses `search_artist` and `search_track` to find musicians and specific songs across different regions. Provide a country code like "US" or "GB" to restrict the results to what is available locally. The agent pulls back track titles, durations, and explicit content flags immediately. Digging deeper requires calling `get_artist_details` or `get_artist_releases` with the ID returned from your initial query. Claude grabs the full discography, separating albums, singles, EPs, and compilations. You see exactly what the artist published without opening a browser tab.

Stream audio previews inside your MCP chat interface

Fetching an audio/mpeg stream URL happens through the `get_track_preview` tool. Claude requests a short snippet of any song using its track ID. You get a direct link to listen to the audio right away. Breaking down an entire album is just as fast. The agent runs `get_release_tracks` to list every song on a record, including track numbers and lengths. This helps you verify you have the right version of a release before doing anything else.

Build a music shopping cart with this MCP Server

Managing purchases starts by calling `add_to_basket` with a specific release ID. Your agent checks the current prices and updates the cart contents. If you want to see what is queued up, `get_basket` lists the titles and quantities. Finishing the transaction requires `get_checkout_url` to generate a secure payment link. Claude hands you the URL, optionally adding a redirect parameter so you land back on your app after buying. A developer account with basket access is mandatory for these commerce features to function.
