What changed 1

Every tool that appeared, vanished or quietly changed what it asks for. Recorded since 22 October 2026. No other catalogue keeps this.

22 Oct a tool changed the parameters it asks for validate_cwr

Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check TrackForge every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

catalogue
check_catalogue
Catalogue registration check (batch ISRC lookup): checks up to 50 recordings at once against The MLC's bulk data (US mechanical royalties), and a larger catalogue in several calls. Returns each recording's verdict (registered, partial, nobody, conflict, unknown) with its confidence, MLC song code and any unclaimed share, plus a summary counting each verdict, the next step for each verdict found, and the as_of date of the MLC snapshot. Each row also lists the ISWCs and writers of the works MusicBrainz links to the recording. Invalid ISRCs are listed and skipped. It finds recordings whose music royalties may be unmatched or unclaimed. Findings from registration data, not legal advice or a statement of song ownership.
lookup
lookup_recording
ISRC lookup and music royalties registration check for one recording, with the song's rights data. Give exactly one of: an ISRC, a Spotify track link, a song title (optionally with the artist), or a YouTube link. Returns candidate recordings and MLC works, how each was matched and how confidently, and a verdict per recording: registered, partial (a share is unclaimed), nobody (no MLC work is linked), conflict, or unknown. Each verdict carries dated evidence (as_of, from The MLC's bulk data snapshot) and a factual next step. Also returns what MusicBrainz records for the recording: the linked works with their ISWCs, the writers and publishers with their IPI and ISNI numbers, the earliest release's album, date, label and catalogue number, and the MusicBrainz page. With full_record true it adds every release (label, catalogue number, country and date), performer and producer credits and related recordings; that answer is many times larger. When several matches are equally likely, ambiguous is true and all are returned. Findings from registration data, not legal advice or a statement of song ownership.
request
request_full_report
Ask for a full music royalties and registration review of a catalogue. Records the request (contact name, email, optional organisation, the catalogue's ISRCs and/or a description) so a person at TrackForge can follow up by email. It does not generate or send a report. Call it only when the user has asked for a follow-up and agreed to be contacted: consent_to_contact must be true.
validate
validate_cwr
CWR validation: checks the text of a CWR 2.1 (Common Works Registration) file used to register songs with music royalties societies such as The MLC, PRS for Music / ICE, SACEM or CMRRA. Returns whether the file is valid, error and warning counts, and each issue with its line, rule, plain-language explanation and how to fix it. Pass the file content as ASCII text, up to 256 KB; larger files can be uploaded at https://trackforge.studio/cwr-tool. Validation does not guarantee acceptance by a society. The file is not stored.

TrackForge — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can TrackForge do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_catalogue, lookup_recording, request_full_report, validate_cwr. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is TrackForge working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 181 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect TrackForge?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does TrackForge need an API key?
No. TrackForge completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is TrackForge?
It answers our handshake in 181 ms on average, which is faster than 83% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
