Perplexity

Streamline coding with Last.fm Alternative in Cursor

The `get_track_info` tool provides live data for your music applications while you write code. You can pull real specs instead of using placeholders. Cursor agents can call these tools to verify metadata during development. It ensures your code interacts with accurate, live API responses.

Automate track logging in Cursor

Use `scrobble_track` to build automated logging features for your personal music projects. It sends your plays directly to your profile from your editor. Updating your status is just as simple with `update_now_playing`. This lets you build custom triggers that update your profile based on your current project activity.

Access music metadata via Cursor

Query `get_tag_info` to organize your music libraries or tagging systems. You get the raw data you need to build better classification logic. Your agent can query user profiles with `get_user_info` to test your apps against real account data. It makes debugging your music tools much faster.

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
