# InterSpace Distribution — Developer Docs

> InterSpace Distribution is a music distribution platform for independent artists and labels. This site documents its public API for managing catalogs, tracks, artwork, DSP deliveries, webhooks — and, notably, for AI agents and automation to create and authenticate artist accounts programmatically.

## Agent Signup & Login (start here if you are an AI agent)

- [Account Creation](https://docs.interspacemusic.com/#account-creation): How an AI agent or automated integration signs an artist up for a new InterSpace Distribution account with no human filling out a form and no API key. `POST https://cms.interspacemusic.com/api/mobile_auth.php?action=signup` with `first_name`, `email`, `password`, and a required `agent_name` (or `X-Agent-Name` header) identifying your integration — calls without it are rejected. Returns a 90-day bearer token immediately.
- Login: `POST https://cms.interspacemusic.com/api/mobile_auth.php?action=login` with `email`, `password` — returns the same bearer-token shape for an existing account.
- Current user: `GET https://cms.interspacemusic.com/api/mobile_auth.php?action=me` with `Authorization: Bearer <token>`.

Important: this endpoint lives on `cms.interspacemusic.com`, a different host from the `api-v1.interspacemusic.com` base URL used by the rest of this documentation.

## MCP server (for MCP-native agents)

- InterSpace Distribution runs a Model Context Protocol server at `https://mcp.interspacemusic.com/mcp` (Streamable HTTP transport, no API key required). Connect directly instead of calling the REST endpoints above if your agent speaks MCP.
- Tools: `signup_artist` (agent_name required), `login_artist`, `get_current_user`, `resend_verification`. None can set or change an account's role, account type, or plan.
- `GET https://mcp.interspacemusic.com/` for a live human-readable summary, `GET https://mcp.interspacemusic.com/health` for liveness.
