Transport: STDIO
Runtime: Desktop only
Trust: Verified

Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified that this server's namespace belongs to lightning.fm. It runs from a package rather than a hosted endpoint, so there is no endpoint to match against that domain.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant search Lightning FM's Nostr music catalog, look up artists, and check what is playing live now.

What you can do: Search the Lightning FM music catalog and find tracks or releases on the Nostr relays it queries. Look up artist profiles and catalog entries. Check the current now-playing snapshot. Reuse fetched catalog, profile and now-playing data for a configurable cache period before querying the relays again.
When to use it: Useful when you want an assistant to explore Lightning FM's Nostr music catalog, find artists, or see what is currently playing without opening the app yourself.
Requirements: Runs as a local stdio process installed from the npm package lightning-fm-mcp, so Node.js is needed. Optional environment variables: LFM_NOSTR_RELAYS (comma-separated relay URLs), LFM_BLOSSOM_URL (server for resolving audio and image hashes), and LFM_CACHE_TTL_MS (snapshot cache lifetime). Network access to the relays is required. No authentication is declared.

Before you install

Adding relays to LFM_NOSTR_RELAYS changes which data is returned; the provider warns that only relays gating writes like relay.lightning.fm should be added, since unrestricted public relays return other apps' content. The server queries third-party relays and a Blossom server, so requests go outside your machine.

25% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
