It bundles an MCP server and App Intents so Claude, Shortcuts, Siri and scripts can drive it.; mcp-music-studio: MCP Music Studio is a two-mode creative music studio for AI: scored composition with ABC notation and sheet music, and live performance with Strudel live coding. An interactive UI renders in the client, and a hosted endpoint needs no install.
