Trust breakdown (7 categories)

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security98
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
  • 34 of 108 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency100
  • Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to NovaLux12/spotify-mcp-server). View diagnostics → Pass
  • Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
  • Actively maintained (last published 11 days ago).Pass
  • Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability0
  • Schema quality not yet verified: the captured schema was too large for us to store in full, so we will not judge it on a partial copy.Unverified
Stability & Change Management0
  • Stability not yet verified: the captured schema was too large for us to store in full, and comparing a partial copy would report our own trimming as a change.Unverified
Tool Coverage0
  • Tool coverage not yet verified: the captured tool definitions were too large for us to store in full, so we will not judge them on a partial copy.Unverified
Tool Safety0
  • Tool safety not yet verified: the captured tool definitions were too large for us to store in full, and the trim removes the very descriptions this category reads.Unverified
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

Unverified: 4 categories

Categories scored 0 because our sandbox run of this package has not given us the schema these checks need to read. That is a gap on our side rather than a finding about the package, and we only credit what we can confirm, so the score stands at 0 until the capture succeeds. We are working through the fleet, so this normally clears without any action from you. How we score packages →

Install

How do I install the Spotify MCP server?

Spotify MCP runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y @novalux12/spotify-mcp. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Common questions

What is the Spotify MCP server?

Spotify MCP is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.NovaLux12/spotify-mcp-server. The most complete Spotify MCP: playback, library, playlists, search, podcasts and audiobooks. This page covers its npm package (@novalux12/spotify-mcp).

Is the Spotify MCP server safe to use?

Spotify MCP scores 53 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

Is the Spotify MCP server still maintained?

Spotify MCP is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the Spotify MCP server under?

Spotify MCP declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
