What is the AudD Music Recognition MCP Server?
Equip your AI agent with the power of AudD, the leading music recognition and data platform. This integration allows your agent to identify songs from audio URLs, search for track information by title or artist, and retrieve full lyrics or snippets. Your agent can also find direct streaming links for identified tracks on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. Whether you are identifying a background track from a video or searching for that one song with a specific lyric, your agent acts as a dedicated musicologist through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Music Recognition — Identify songs from publicly accessible audio URLs with high precision.
- Lyrics Search — Find full lyrics or search for songs using fragments of text.
- Metadata Retrieval — Fetch detailed track, artist, and album information including release dates and labels.
- Streaming Links — Get direct URLs to listen to identified tracks on major music platforms.

Frequently asked questions
Can I identify a song just by providing a link to an MP3 file?
Yes! Use the recognize_music tool and provide the direct URL to the audio file. Your agent will identify the track and provide metadata and streaming links.
How do I find the lyrics for a song if I only know a few words?
You can use the search_lyrics tool with those words. Your agent will search AudD's database for matching lyrics and return the full text and song details.
Can I get direct links to open the song on Spotify or Apple Music?
Yes, when identifying a song or searching for one, you can request extra data that includes direct streaming links for various platforms.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
