DJ Claude MCP Server

The live music engine for AI agents. DJ Claude is the only music MCP server with multi-agent collaboration. Multiple AI agents connect over HTTP and jam together in real-time - one adds drums, another layers bass, a third drops a melody - and everything composes automatically. It works in your terminal, browser, or as a Claude Code plugin with slash commands. No browser tab, no API key, no external services required.

People connecting media tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.
