API Examples

# health check
curl -s http://localhost:8033/health | jq

MCP Tools

• probe_url: provider detection and downloadability check.
• enqueue_download: create/duplicate a job, put it in the queue.
• get_job_status: status, artifacts, file links as MCP resources.
• Resources: forge://jobs/<job_id>/{original|final}/<filename> (file bytes).

Project Overview

• MCP Server (mcp_music_forge/): job management, resource provider, and MCP tools.
• HTTP API (api/): POST /download, GET /jobs/{id}, /health, admin interface.
• Providers (providers/): adapters for sources (starting with SoundCloud).
• Transcoder (transcoder/): a wrapper around ffmpeg.
• Storage (storage/): local FS (can be replaced with S3, etc.).
• Queue (core/services/queue.py): ARQ + Redis; a wrapper in workers/.

Documentation

• Build / Run / Deploy
• Architecture
• CI/CD

Legal Notes

• SoundCloud provider respects ToU: we only download if the track is downloadable (downloadable/download_url).
• Cookie file support is available, but use it strictly within the service's rules.
