What is the TIDAL Developer API MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire music research and discography auditing workflow with the TIDAL Developer API, the comprehensive source for high-fidelity audio metadata. By connecting TIDAL to your agent, you transform complex music searches into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly search for albums, audit artist catalogs, and retrieve track lists without you ever touching a music app. Whether you are conducting industry research or managing local playlist constraints, your agent acts as a real-time musical consultant, ensuring your data is always comprehensive and up-to-the-minute.
What you can do
- Album Auditing — Search for thousands of albums by title or artist and retrieve detailed metadata, including track counts and durations.
- Artist Oversight — Audit comprehensive artist profiles and discographies to maintain a clear view of musical distribution and scale.
- Track Discovery — Query all tracks belonging to specific albums to understand the thematic distribution of music instantly.
- Metadata Intelligence — Retrieve high-resolution identifiers and duration markers for any musical record to assist in deep-dive classification.
- Operational Monitoring — Check API status to ensure your music research workflow is always operational.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns TIDAL Developer API into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from TIDAL Developer API and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 5 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my TIDAL API Key?
Register at the TIDAL Developer portal, create an application, and you will receive your API Key. Copy and paste it below.
Can the agent show track durations?
Yes. Every track record retrieved by your agent includes metadata on the duration in seconds, which is automatically converted to minutes and seconds.
Does it support high-resolution audio info?
Yes. The TIDAL API provides metadata indicating available audio qualities (e.g., Lossless, High) for albums and tracks.
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.
