Common questions

Is Last.fm safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: LASTFM_API_KEY, LASTFM_API_SECRET

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.0) reached the registry 22 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Docker on your computer.

What can I use instead?

README from the maker

Open the README

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

lastfm-mcp

An MCP server for the Last.fm API, built on go-lastfm/v2 and the official Go MCP SDK.

It exposes the complete supported Last.fm surface as discoverable MCP tools over:

stdio, for local desktop and CLI clients;
Streamable HTTP, for local services and remote deployments.

Read-only tools are enabled by default. Writes, authentication helpers, and unsupported legacy methods require explicit opt-in.

Status

This project is prepared for its initial repository import. The module path is github.com/ndyakov/lastfm-mcp; change it before the first release if the repository will use a different owner or name.

Requirements

Go 1.25 or later
A Last.fm API account
LASTFM_API_KEY
LASTFM_API_SECRET and LASTFM_SESSION_KEY only when write tools are enabled

Run with stdio

export LASTFM_API_KEY="your-api-key"

go run ./cmd/lastfm-mcp

Example MCP client configuration:

"mcpServers": { "lastfm": { "command": "/absolute/path/to/lastfm-mcp", "env": { "LASTFM_API_KEY": "your-api-key" } } } }

Never place credentials in a configuration file that will be committed.

Run with Streamable HTTP

export LASTFM_API_KEY="your-api-key"

export LASTFM_MCP_TRANSPORT="http" export LASTFM_MCP_HTTP_ADDR="127.0.0.1:8080" go run ./cmd/lastfm-mcp

The MCP endpoint is http://127.0.0.1:8080/mcp; health checks use GET /healthz.

Non-loopback binds are rejected unless LASTFM_MCP_HTTP_TOKEN is set. Clients then send:

Authorization: Bearer <token>

The server applies Go's cross-origin protection around the MCP endpoint and sets conservative HTTP timeouts. Put TLS and production identity-aware authentication in a trusted reverse proxy.

Configuration

Environment variable	Default	Purpose
`LASTFM_API_KEY`	required	Last.fm API key
`LASTFM_API_SECRET`	empty	Required for signed/authenticated methods
`LASTFM_SESSION_KEY`	empty	Required for write tools
`LASTFM_USER_AGENT`	`lastfm-mcp/`	Outbound Last.fm user agent
`LASTFM_REQUEST_TIMEOUT`	`30s`	Last.fm request timeout
`LASTFM_MCP_TRANSPORT`	`stdio`	`stdio` or `http`
`LASTFM_MCP_HTTP_ADDR`	`127.0.0.1:8080`	HTTP listen address
`LASTFM_MCP_HTTP_PATH`	`/mcp`	Streamable HTTP endpoint
`LASTFM_MCP_HTTP_TOKEN`	empty	HTTP bearer token; mandatory on non-loopback binds
`LASTFM_ENABLE_WRITES`	`false`	Register mutating tools
`LASTFM_ENABLE_AUTH_TOOLS`	`false`	Register credential/session tools
`LASTFM_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL`	`false`	Register legacy methods absent from Last.fm's public index

Equivalent command-line flags are available for transport, address, path, and feature gates. Run lastfm-mcp -h for details.

Tool coverage

The default server registers every stable read endpoint supported by go-lastfm/v2:

album: info, user tags, top tags, search;
artist: correction, info, similar, user tags, top albums/tracks/tags, search;
chart: top artists, tracks, tags;
geo: top artists and tracks;
library: artists;
tag: info, similar, top albums/artists/tracks/tags, weekly chart ranges;
track: correction, info, similar, user tags, top tags, search;
user: profile, friends, loved and recent tracks, personal tags, top albums/artists/tracks/tags, weekly charts and ranges.

LASTFM_ENABLE_WRITES=true adds album/artist/track tagging, love/unlove, now-playing, and scrobbling. These require an API secret and session key.

LASTFM_ENABLE_AUTH_TOOLS=true adds browser-token, authorization-URL, session-exchange, and mobile-session tools. These may expose session credentials to the MCP client and model; leave them disabled unless needed. Prefer completing authentication outside the MCP session and providing LASTFM_SESSION_KEY at process startup.

LASTFM_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL=true adds legacy tag search, metros, neighbours, artist/track top fans, and tasteometer comparison. Last.fm may change or disable these without notice.

Docker

docker build -t lastfm-mcp .

docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \ -e LASTFM_API_KEY \ -e LASTFM_MCP_TRANSPORT=http \ -e LASTFM_MCP_HTTP_ADDR=0.0.0.0:8080 \ -e LASTFM_MCP_HTTP_TOKEN \ lastfm-mcp

docker compose up --build uses the same HTTP setup and reads values from the environment.

Development

go mod tidy

go test -race ./... go vet ./...

Until go-lastfm/v2 is published, use a temporary Go workspace containing this repository and the adjacent go-lastfm checkout. Do not commit a local replace directive.
