AINSOF — MCP Server
Original, human-made production music inside your AI assistant.
Search it by brief or by reference link, hear full previews, score it to your video,
analyze your edit, pull versions, stems and cue sheets — and clear it, without leaving the tool you already work in.

AINSOF is a music superpowers creative company: a curated, growing production-music catalogue built for sync, with purpose-made tools for connecting music to picture. Every cue is written, performed and produced by human composers — nothing in the catalogue is AI-generated. New original music lands every week.
This server puts the whole catalogue behind 12 MCP tools, so an AI assistant can find the right cue for a scene, play it, fetch stems and cut-downs, and even return a finished, professionally scored edit of your video.

What's in the plugin
The connector on its own gives an assistant twelve tools. The plugin adds the judgement around them — when to reach for music, which version fits a 22-second cut, and what to hand over when legal asks for paper.
| Skills | soundtrack | Teaches the assistant to offer music on its own the moment a video is edited, rendered or exported — measure the cut, ask for the version that fits that exact length rather than a full track, show three options instead of ten, and never imply a licence that isn't there. |
setup | Connect and verify the server, raise the rate limit with a free key, and recognise the two replies that look like errors and aren't. | |
| Sub-agent | music-supervisor | Turns a brief into a defensible shortlist — several spots at once, each measured, searched from more than one angle, auditioned, ranked, with the trade-off named and the cue sheet attached. |
| Commands | /score-video | Measure a cut, find the music, and take it through to a finished score synced to picture. |
/find-music | Search the catalogue by brief, mood, scene, composer or catalogue number. | |
/match-reference | Paste a Spotify / YouTube / Apple Music / Deezer link and get the closest AINSOF cues, matched by sound. | |
/cue-sheet | Pull writers, splits, ISRC and publisher for a cue you used. |
So a video exported in your session gets a real shortlist without anyone having to remember to ask for one.

In practice
A video editor, mid-edit. You're cutting a 45-second alpine ski clip in silence.
You tell your assistant: "fast cuts, no narration — score it." It calls
find_soundtrack with the length and pace, streams you three full previews, and the
one you keep comes back through score_my_video already synced to your cut.
A creative team pitching with a reference. The client says "something like Hans
Zimmer's Time." Paste the link. search_by_reference listens to the actual record
and answers with the closest cues in the AINSOF catalogue — playable immediately,
licensable the same day.
An agency producer clearing a spot. The edit is locked and legal wants paper.
get_track returns every version and stem of the cue you used, cue_sheet returns
the cue-sheet data, and licensing is one email — every cue in the catalogue is
pre-cleared, one owner, no chain-of-title archaeology.
A developer building a creative tool. Your users edit video in your product.
Point your agent at https://mcp.ainsof.io and music discovery — search,
reference matching, previews, scoring to picture — becomes a feature of your app,
with no key required to start.
