# How to Explore an Artist's Discography with ChatGPT

Map every release from an artist, review edition details, and check collector values across their full catalog. Use `artist_discography`, `release_details`, and `price_guide` to build the complete picture. ChatGPT is a good fit when you want the discography presented as a clean, readable guide with value highlights and a ready-made want list.

## Setup

{"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}

## Steps

1. Connect ToolRouter in ChatGPT: {"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}
2. Specify the artist and any scope preferences: format, country, year range, and whether to include compilations.
3. Use `record-collector` to run `artist_discography`, then drill into notable releases with `release_details` and `price_guide`.
4. Have ChatGPT format the results as a discography guide with columns for title, year, label, format, edition notes, and estimated value.
5. Use the formatted guide as a reference for crate digging, online shopping, or collection planning.

## Example Prompt

```
Use record-collector to explore Alice Coltrane's full discography. Run artist_discography, then release_details and price_guide on the original Impulse! pressings. Format the output as a collector's guide with title, year, label, and value range for each release.
```

## Tips

- Ask ChatGPT to sort the discography by collector value so the most important releases are at the top.
- Request a separate want list section with only the titles you do not already own.
