Show HN: MCP Server for Spotify – control playback, queue, playlists

1 vsaez 1 8/16/2025, 7:41:22 PM github.com ↗

I’ve built an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Spotify, so you can control music directly from MCP clients like Claude Desktop.

Features (v0.1.0): - Playback: play, pause, next/previous, state, devices, volume, repeat - Queue: add tracks, list upcoming - Search: tracks, artists, albums (+ collection search for playlists/albums) - Albums: details & tracks - Artists: info, albums, top tracks - Library: saved albums (list, check, save, remove) - Playlists: list playlists, get tracks, create, rename, clear, add tracks - Diagnostics: quick auth/env check - MCP stdio server: JSON-RPC over stdio, integrates directly with Claude

Repo: https://github.com/victor-saez-gonzalez/mcp-spotify-player

Would love feedback from the HN community: - Which Spotify features should I prioritize next? - Any best practices to make MCP setup smoother?

Contributions welcome — and if this project is useful, a star helps others find it
