Sounds MCP server

• get_jobFree

  Look up a historical generation job by job_id. New generation is no longer available.

• get_role_soundFree

  Choose this when the task calls for a sound for a named event or interaction — a button click, purchase success, error beep, level-up, dialogue blip, rain loop. Pass the role as plain words: role ids (click, success, purchase-success, dialogue-blip, rain-loop…) and common aliases (button click, ka-ching, jump scare, text blip…) are all accepted. Returns a qualified candidate for that role when one satisfies the requested constraints, with MP3/WAV URLs, 2-3 alternates and the family page for browsing more. Five core game roles include content_check (verified/unverified/rejected), scoped to scene, role, format and exact file SHA256; unverified previews are not certified suitable. Download selected files locally and retain originals. Task-permitted processing requires a recipe, output SHA256, renewed file checks and a listening check; changed bytes do not inherit content review. Other task-permitted sources or local synthesis may be mixed in. Optional style: crisp (short, bright, dry), soft (darker, gentler), spacious (reverb, longer tail), balanced (default: most typical). Loop roles require prepared loop metadata; WAV seam evidence and MP3 padding are reported separately and may remain unknown. For multiple events consider get_sound_set; use search_sounds for a description or a gap. These are task branches, not a fixed sequence. Unknown roles return not_found with the full role list; GET https://sfxmint.com/api/v1/roles lists roles with aliases.

• get_soundFree

  Get full metadata for one sound by slug, including download URLs, generation prompt and measured acoustics (attack/tail/brightness + character labels).

• get_sound_setFree

  Get a coherent set of sounds for an app or game in one call — one sound per role, with format metadata, hashes and stable download URLs. Use it when the task needs a whole kit; use get_role_sound for one event. Check content_check: verified/unverified/rejected is bound to the exact role, format and file SHA256; unverified files still require listening in context. Sets include UI styles, game and app scenarios, acoustic-drum-kit, animal-calls (15 isolated calls), and dungeon-traps (6 isolated mechanisms).

• search_soundsFree

  Free-text search over 4,600+ free CC0 sound effects. Use it for sound descriptions, additional constraints or gaps left by another tool. Choose get_role_sound for a named event or get_sound_set for multiple events when that fits the task; these are task branches, not a fixed sequence. Exact keyword matches come first, then semantic nearest neighbours; hard constraints are applied before the result limit and a request may validly return no qualified candidate with near-match diagnostics. Returns direct, hotlinkable MP3/WAV URLs and verified OGG (Vorbis) URLs where available — no API key, no attribution required — plus measured acoustics (attack_ms, tail_ms, centroid_hz), character labels like 'bright · punchy · tight', loop/file-QC status, and score/match as ranking evidence only (role = known role default, exact = all words hit, partial = some words hit, semantic = nearest by meaning).
