# Credits.fm — AI Connector Credits.fm publishes 14 MCP tools to Claude. Marketplace availability, tool surface, verification tier, and what Node8 measured against the live endpoint. Source: https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/entertainment/credits-fm/ --- [AI Connectors](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/) · [Entertainment & Media](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/entertainment/) # Credits.fm Music credit and identifier lookups across ISRC, ISWC, IPI, ISNI and UPC Listed in Claude · 14 published tools · Community-listed [Claude connector docs](https://credits.fm/mcp/docs) [credits.fm](https://credits.fm/) Overview ## What Credits.fm does Credits.fm answers questions about who made a recording. It resolves the identifier system the music industry runs on, ISRC for recordings, ISWC for compositions, IPI and ISNI for people and organisations, UPC for releases, and normalises across them so a recording can be matched to its underlying work and to the rightsholders behind it. The server is public and takes no authentication. Lookups are single-call, a batch tool covers larger jobs, and Credits.fm publishes documentation. The connector is community-listed. ### Who it is for Music metadata and rights teams matching recordings to works and rightsholders. ### Tool surface Fourteen tools answered without credentials. Five are direct identifier lookups, two resolve free text or a URL to a track, credits\_graph and credits\_graph\_activity walk relationships between artists and works, and credits\_batch\_lookup covers volume. Availability ## Where Credits.fm is listed Credits.fm is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Credits.fm has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them. The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one. Claude listing ## In the Claude connectors directory Credits.fm publishes 14 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 56.6% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer. The median Claude-listed connector filed under Entertainment & Media publishes 11, so this one runs 3 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 6th of 13 by tool count. It falls in the 11-20 tools band, which holds 22.5% of the Claude directory. ### Measured against the live endpoint A direct call to the endpoint returned 17 tools, 3 more than the 14 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07. #### Tools the server actually returns - `credits_search` - `credits_graph` - `credits_graph_activity` - `credits_watch` - `credits_lookup_isrc` - `credits_lookup_iswc` - `credits_lookup_ipi` - `credits_lookup_isni` - `credits_lookup_musician` - `credits_lookup_artist` - `credits_resolve_url` - `credits_resolve_track` - `credits_lookup_upc` - `credits_batch_lookup` - `credits_contribute` - `credits_publishers_for_songwriter` - `credits_coverage` Credits.fm publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally. Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there. Publisher Credits.fm Verification Community-listed (61.5% of the Claude directory) Filed under Media & Entertainment Endpoint `https://credits.fm/mcp` Documentation [Publisher setup docs](https://credits.fm/mcp/docs) Published tools 14 · 11-20 tools band Depth rank in Entertainment & Media 6 of 13 Snapshot August 2026 Credits.fm is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality. In the publisher's words ## How Credits.fm describes it > Credits.fm is a public MCP server that lets AI agents look up and resolve music credits and identifiers in real time. It supports fast searches and normalization across core music IDs including ISRC, ISWC, IPI, ISNI, and UPC, helping agents match recordings to works and rightsholders with higher confidence. Use it to enrich metadata, validate identifiers, and power music-aware workflows without authentication. Designed for lightweight, high-signal lookups that can be embedded directly into agent tools and automations. Quoted from the connector's own Claude directory listing as captured in August 2026.
