What the publisher says

From the Sonicmatch repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

Sonicmatch

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.js713-lab/sonicmatch-mcp -->

Video-native MCP server for license-safe BGM. Watches the footage — not the script — and returns a shortlist, a 12–20s hook, and an ffmpeg ducking spec.

Package / CLI: sonicmatch-mcp. A Model Context Protocol server for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP clients. Drop an Instagram Reel, YouTube Short, or TikTok-style clip. Get royalty-free / Creative Commons matches with the license printed on every row.

Video-to-BGM already exists. The wedge is not “I also match music”:

  • it watches the footage, not the script
  • it returns a hook window + ffmpeg ducking spec
  • it is agent-native
  • it prints the license instead of lying

Catalog quality will kill or save this. More tools will not.

Video or URL in
  → scene / mood / pace / speech analysis
  → license-safe BGM shortlist
  + beat/cut hints
  + optional mix preview

Do not treat this as “script in → YouTube Music search out.” That already exists (mcp-bgm-recommender). Sonicmatch watches the video.

North star: ingestvideo → analyzevideomusic → recommendbgm → previewmix → exportmix_spec

License warning (read this)

  • The code is MIT.
  • Every track has its own license. It is printed on every recommendation.
  • Nothing here is an official Instagram sticker, TikTok Commercial Music Library track, or YouTube Audio Library API result.
  • Do not recommend commercial pop unless the adapter is explicitly a user-owned licensed library.
  • CC-BY still needs attribution. CC-BY-NC is not ok for ads / shops. Non-commercial tracks are never auto-recommended.
  • For ads / shops, wire a user-owned Artlist / Epidemic JSON (examples/user_library.example.json). Do not scrape those sites.
  • Content ID can still hit you if you point at the wrong source. A CC label is not a waiver.

Demo

I dropped ./clip.mp4. Analyze it for an Instagram Reel and recommend 5 instrumental BGMs. Then mix the top pick with ducking and give me the ffmpeg command.

That prompt is the product. Install below, wire Claude Desktop or Cursor, paste it.

Quick start

Requires Python 3.10+ and ffmpeg / ffprobe on PATH. yt-dlp is optional and off by default (SONICMATCHALLOWYTDLP=0) because platform extractors break and may violate ToS. Prefer a local file.

pip install git+https://github.com/js713-lab/sonic-match-mcp.git
sonicmatch-mcp            # or: python3 -m sonicmatch

With uv, no clone:

uvx --from git+https://github.com/js713-lab/sonic-match-mcp.git sonicmatch-mcp

From a clone (editable + tests):

git clone https://github.com/js713-lab/sonic-match-mcp.git
cd sonic-match-mcp
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
cp .env.example .env   # optional keys

# stdio (Claude Desktop / Cursor)
sonicmatch-mcp

# streamable HTTP (web editors)
