Sonos MCP Server

This project is a Sonos MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that allows you to control and interact with Sonos devices on your network. It provides various functionalities such as discovering devices, controlling playback, retrieving device states, and managing queues.

Features

  • Discover Sonos devices on the network
  • Retrieve and control playback state for devices
  • Manage playback queues
  • Expose functionalities as MCP tools

Requirements

  • Python 3.7+
  • uv for managing Python projects

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/WinstonFassett/sonos-mcp-server.git
    cd sonos-mcp-server
    
  2. Install the required dependencies using uv:

    uv sync
    

Usage

Running the Server

Stdio

Run the server using stdio:

uv run mcp run server.py

SSE with Supergateway

Run the server with SSE using the supergateway tool:

npx -y supergateway --port 8000 --stdio "uv run mcp run server.py"

Alternatively, you can use the convenience script provided in the repository:

./npx-serve-sse-8000.sh

Development

To run the server in "development" mode with the MCP Inspector:

uv run mcp dev server.py

This command hosts an MCP Inspector for testing and debugging purposes.

To run the server with SSE in development mode, use the SSE command for supergateway, and in a second terminal windor run:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector

Available MCP Tools

  • get_all_device_states: Retrieve the state information for all discovered Sonos devices.
  • now_playing: Retrieve information about currently playing tracks on all Sonos devices.
  • get_device_state: Retrieve the state information for a specific Sonos device.
  • pause, stop, play: Control playback on a Sonos device.
  • next, previous: Skip tracks on a Sonos device.
  • get_queue, get_queue_length: Manage the playback queue for a Sonos device.
  • mode: Get or set the play mode of a Sonos device.
  • partymode: Enable party mode on the current Sonos device.
  • speaker_info: Retrieve speaker information for a Sonos device.
  • get_current_track_info: Retrieve current track information for a Sonos device.
  • volume: Get or set the volume of a Sonos device.
  • skip, play_index, remove_index_from_queue: Manage tracks in the queue for a Sonos device.
