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.

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.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
