How to Set Up and Use Mureka
Mureka MCP Server bridges AI assistants like Claude to Mureka's cloud-based AI music generation platform, enabling the creation of original lyrics, complete songs with musical accompaniment, and background instrumental tracks through natural language prompts. Built on the Mureka API from SkyworkAI, it exposes four tools covering lyric writing, song generation, background music creation, and audio playback — all accessible without writing any code. It is ideal for content creators, game developers, or anyone who wants to generate custom music or audio content conversationally.
Prerequisites
- A Mureka platform account and API key from https://platform.mureka.ai/apiKeys
- Mureka credits (required for generation tasks)
- uv Python package manager installed (curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh)
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop
Create a Mureka account and obtain an API key
Sign up at platform.mureka.ai and navigate to the API Keys section to generate your key. Copy it — you will need it in the configuration step. Note that generation tasks consume Mureka credits.
Install uv package manager
The server is distributed as a Python package and uses uv for dependency management. Install uv if you do not already have it.
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | shConfigure Claude Desktop
Open your Claude Desktop configuration file. On macOS, this is at ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json. Add the Mureka server entry under mcpServers, replacing the placeholder with your actual API key.
Add the server configuration
The server is installed and run automatically via uvx when Claude Desktop starts. Set TIME_OUT_SECONDS to 300 or higher because music generation can take longer than the default 60-second timeout.

}
}
}
}Restart Claude Desktop and verify
Fully quit and relaunch Claude Desktop. The four Mureka tools (lyric generation, song generation, background music creation, audio playback) should now appear. Check logs at ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp-server-Mureka.log on macOS if you encounter issues.

}Prompts to try
These prompts exercise the lyric generation, song composition, and background music tools.
- "Generate lyrics about a winter road trip and then create a song from them"
- "Create a personalized birthday song for Jessica and play it"
- "Generate background music suitable for a coffee shop study session"
- "Write Christmas-themed lyrics and compose a full song with those lyrics"
- "Create a calm, ambient instrumental track for a meditation video"Troubleshooting Mureka
Generation request times out
Music generation can take 60-180 seconds. Set TIME_OUT_SECONDS to 300 in your config. If Claude reports a timeout, the generation may still have completed on the Mureka side — check your Mureka dashboard.
Authentication error or 401 response
Verify that MUREKA_API_KEY is set correctly in your configuration and that your Mureka account is active. Generate a new API key from platform.mureka.ai/apiKeys if needed.
Server fails to start after uvx install
Ensure uv is on your PATH by running 'which uvx'. If it is not found, re-run the uv installer or add ~/.cargo/bin to your PATH. On macOS, you may need to restart the terminal session after installing.
