Runs on your machine under the source's own terms

The crw MCP on your computer calls Discogs directly, with a free key of your own. Calls cost no credits and the data does not pass through fastCRW. Install it once for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Gemini CLI or OpenCode, with your fastCRW API key in place of the placeholder:

Ask with this source

A prompt for your agent that names this source and how to call it through the crw MCP.

  • Artist

    Use Discogs (discogs) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Artist" (artist). You have a Discogs artist id and want the canonical record. Example options: artistId=3840. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "discogs" and capability "artist". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Artist discography

    Use Discogs (discogs) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Artist discography" (artist-releases). You want an artist's discography in one call. Example options: artistId=3840, sort=year, sort_order=desc. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "discogs" and capability "artist-releases". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Label

    Use Discogs (discogs) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Label" (label). You have a Discogs label id and want the label behind a catalogue number. Example options: labelId=1.
