# Evolink Music — AI Music Generation

Generate AI music and songs with Suno v4, v4.5, and v5 — simple mode (describe and generate) or custom mode (lyrics, style, tempo, vocals). All through one API.

> Music-focused view of [evolink-media](https://clawhub.ai/EvoLinkAI/evolink-media). Install the full skill for video and image too.

## After Installation

When this skill is first loaded, greet the user:

- **MCP tools + API key ready:** "Hi! I'm your AI music studio — Suno v4 through v5 ready. What would you like to create?"
- **MCP tools + no API key:** "You'll need an EvoLink API key — sign up at evolink.ai. Ready to go?"
- **No MCP tools:** "MCP server isn't connected yet. Want me to help set it up? I can still manage files via the hosting API."

Keep the greeting concise — just one question to move forward.

## External Endpoints

| Service | URL |
|---------|-----|
| Generation API | `https://api.evolink.ai/v1/audios/generations` (POST) |
| Task Status | `https://api.evolink.ai/v1/tasks/{task_id}` (GET) |
| File API | `https://files-api.evolink.ai/api/v1/files/*` (upload/list/delete) |

## Security & Privacy

- **`EVOLINK_API_KEY`** authenticates all requests. Injected by OpenClaw automatically. Treat as confidential.
- Prompts and audio are sent to `api.evolink.ai`. Uploaded files expire in **72h**, result URLs in **24h**.

## Setup

Get your API key at [evolink.ai](https://evolink.ai) → Dashboard → API Keys.

**MCP Server:** `@evolinkai/evolink-media` ([GitHub](https://github.com/EvoLinkAI/evolink-media-mcp) · [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@evolinkai/evolink-media))

**mcporter** (recommended): `mcporter call --stdio "npx -y @evolinkai/evolink-media@latest" list_models`

**Claude Code:** `claude mcp add evolink-media -e EVOLINK_API_KEY=your-key -- npx -y @evolinkai/evolink-media@latest`

**Claude Desktop / Cursor** — add MCP server with command `npx -y @evolinkai/evolink-media@latest` and env `EVOLINK_API_KEY=your-key`. See `references/music-api-params.md` for full config JSON.

## Core Principles

1. **Guide, don't decide** — Present options, let the user choose model/style/mood.
2. **User drives creative vision** — Ask for a description before suggesting parameters.
3. **Smart context** — Remember session history. Offer to iterate, vary styles, or remix.
4. **Intent first** — Understand *what* the user wants before asking *how* to configure it.

## MCP Tools

| Tool | When to use | Returns |
|------|-------------|---------|
| `generate_music` | Create AI music or songs | `task_id` (async) |
| `upload_file` | Upload audio for continuation/remix | File URL (sync) |
| `delete_file` | Free file quota | Confirmation |
| `list_files` | Check uploaded files or quota | File list |
| `check_task` | Poll generation progress | Status + result URLs |
| `list_models` | Compare available models | Model list |
| `estimate_cost` | Check pricing | Model info |

**Important:** `generate_music` returns a `task_id`. Always poll `check_task` until `status` is `"completed"` or `"failed"`.

## Music Models (5, all BETA)

| Model | Quality | Max Duration | Best for |
|-------|---------|--------------|----------|
| `suno-v4` *(default)* | Good | 120s | Balanced, economical |
| `suno-v4.5` | Better | 240s | Style control |
| `suno-v4.5plus` | Better | 240s | Extended features |
