MusicFetch REST API Implementation Plan
For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (
- [ ]) syntax for tracking.
Goal: Wrap the existing musicfetch binary in an authenticated, dockerized async REST API so a remote client (esp. iOS Siri Shortcuts) can POST a query, grab the top hit non-interactively, and poll a job for completion.
Architecture: A FastAPI app in server/ imports the unchanged musicfetch script as a module (via importlib) and reuses its Hit model + build_combined_hits, pick, and act_* functions. POST /fetch selects the top hit, creates an in-memory job, and runs the blocking download on a ThreadPoolExecutor; the client polls GET /jobs/{id}. Every response carries a human-readable message for Siri to speak.
Tech Stack: Python 3.12, FastAPI, uvicorn, pytest + FastAPI TestClient, Docker / docker-compose. Reuses musicfetch's deps (requests, ytmusicapi, rich, yt-dlp, ffmpeg).

Responsibilities:
mf.py— the only seam to the CLI. Loads the no-extensionmusicfetchfile and re-exportsHit, build_combined_hits, pick, act_youtube, act_lidarr_album, act_lidarr_artist. Tests/app monkeypatch attributes on this module.actions.py— turns a chosen hit (+ full hit list, for Lidarr→YouTube fallthrough) into a side-effecting download and a structuredresultdict; builds the speakablemessagestrings. Calls intomf.jobs.py— generic job store;run_job(job_id, fn)runsfn()on the executor and recordsrunning/done/failed. Knows nothing about musicfetch.app.py— HTTP surface only: validation, auth, wiringactions+jobs.
Setup note: all work happens from repo root /home/zhering/Documents/musicfetch. Install deps once before starting:
pip install fastapi "uvicorn[standard]" httpx pytest requests ytmusicapi rich

Task 6: Docker + compose
Files:
-
Create:
server/Dockerfile -
Create:
server/docker-compose.yml -
Create:
server/.dockerignore -
Step 1: Write the Dockerfile
Create server/Dockerfile (build context = repo root):
FROM python:3.12-slim
RUN apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends ffmpeg \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
WORKDIR /app
COPY server/requirements.txt /app/server/requirements.txt
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r /app/server/requirements.txt yt-dlp
COPY musicfetch /app/musicfetch
COPY server /app/server
EXPOSE 6769
CMD ["sh", "-c", "uvicorn server.app:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port ${MUSICFETCH_PORT:-6769}"]
- Step 2: Write the compose file
Create server/docker-compose.yml:
services:
musicfetch-api:
build:
context: ..
dockerfile: server/Dockerfile
container_name: musicfetch-api
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- "6769:6769"
environment:

networks:
- lidarr_net
networks:
lidarr_net:
external: true
# Set to the actual network name of your existing Lidarr stack, e.g.:
# name: media_default
- Step 3: Write .dockerignore
Create server/.dockerignore:

docs/
.git/
- Step 4: Verify the image builds
Run: docker compose -f server/docker-compose.yml build
Expected: builds successfully (no push/run yet — networks/secrets are env-specific).

git add server/Dockerfile server/docker-compose.yml server/.dockerignore
git commit -m "feat(server): Dockerfile and compose for the Lidarr stack"
Task 7: README — API usage + Siri Shortcuts walkthrough
Files:
-
Modify:
README.md(append a new "## 🌐 REST API" section before "## 🛠️ Contributing") -
Step 1: Add the API + Siri section to README
Insert this block into README.md directly above the ## 🛠️ Contributing heading:
## 🌐 REST API (Docker)
Run MusicFetch as an authenticated HTTP service inside your Lidarr Docker stack.
A client POSTs a query; the server grabs the top hit non-interactively and runs
the download as a background job you can poll. Every response includes a
human-readable `message` (handy for Siri).
### Configure & run
Set the network name in `server/docker-compose.yml` to your existing Lidarr
stack network, then:
```bash
export LIDARR_API_KEY="your-lidarr-key"
export MUSICFETCH_API_KEY="a-long-random-secret"
docker compose -f server/docker-compose.yml up -d --build
| Env var | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
MUSICFETCH_API_KEY |
(required) | Shared secret clients send as X-API-Key. |
MUSICFETCH_PORT |
6769 |
Listen port. |
LIDARR_URL |
http://lidarr:8686 |
Lidarr base URL (stack network). |
LIDARR_API_KEY |
(required for Lidarr) | Lidarr API key. |
MUSICFETCH_ROOT |
/media/music |
Music output root (bind-mounted). |
TLS is expected to be handled by your upstream reverse proxy; the container
serves plain HTTP on 6769.
Endpoints
| Method | Path | Auth | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
GET |
/health |
no | Liveness check. |
POST |
/fetch?q=... |
yes | Grab top hit; returns a job_id. |
GET |
/jobs/{id} |

🗣️ Siri Shortcuts integration
Make a shortcut that fetches music by voice ("Hey Siri, fetch music").
- Shortcuts app → New Shortcut.
- Add Ask for Input → Input Type Text, prompt "What should I fetch?". (Or use Dictate Text for fully spoken input.)
- Add Text action, set it to:
https://mf.izebra.net/fetch?q=then insert the Provided Input variable at the end. (Shortcuts URL-encodes query variables automatically.) - Add Get Contents of URL:
- URL: the Text variable from step 3.
- Method:
POST. - Headers: add one — key
X-API-Key, value yourMUSICFETCH_API_KEY. - Request Body: leave as is (the query is in the URL).
- Add Get Dictionary Value → Get Value for message in Contents of URL.
- Add Speak Text → the Dictionary Value. Siri reads back "Found '…' … Downloading now."
- (Optional) To confirm completion: add Get Dictionary Value for
job_id, Wait ~20 seconds, Get Contents of URL onhttps://mf.izebra.net/jobs/<job_id>(sameX-API-Keyheader), then Get Dictionary Valuemessage→ Speak Text again.
Rename the shortcut (e.g. "Fetch Music") — that phrase becomes the Siri trigger.

note is a genuine env-specific value the operator must fill (network name), with
an example given.
Type consistency: Hit attribute access (hit.source/kind/artist/album/title/ year/payload) matches musicfetch's dataclass. Job fields (id,status,hit, message,result,error) consistent across jobs.py, _job_public, and tests.
perform_fetch(chosen, hits, quality, root) signature identical in actions.py
and its call site in app.py. build_combined_hits(q, limit, yt_first, lidarr_only, yt_only) and pick(hits, q, noninteractive, yt_first) match
musicfetch's real signatures.
Note for implementer: musicfetch's pick(noninteractive=True) returns the top
hit of the primary source without reading stdin — safe to call server-side.
