Rootvine MCP

Cross-platform music and game resolution for AI agents across 15+ platforms. This MCP entry surfaces a curated ranking/list from the project README rather than a classic multi-tool integration surface. It still exposes 5 documented tools (including Streaming, discover_music, resolve_artist) for browsing or selecting items from that list. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with music and resolve and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Rootvine MCP

Claude Code

claude mcp add ragingorangutan-rootvine-mcp -- npx -y rootvine-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ragingorangutan-rootvine-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "rootvine-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
