Available tools 6

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

connections
search_connections
Find train connections between two Swiss stations. Accepts station names directly (e.g. "Zürich HB", "Bern") or UIC IDs — name resolution happens internally. Returns live schedules with departure/arrival times, duration, transfers, and trip IDs for downstream pricing/details/ticket calls. Live data: includes delays and cancellations for trains departing within 30 min.
more
get_more_connections
Load earlier or later train connections for a previous search. Use the collection ID from search_connections results.
prices
get_prices
Get ticket prices in CHF for one or more train connections. Supports Half-Fare card (Halbtax) and GA travelcard discounts. Up to 10 trip_ids per call — batch them in a single request rather than calling once per connection. Use trip_ids from a recent search_connections result; do not invent IDs.
stations
search_stations
Search for Swiss train stations, addresses, or points of interest by name. Returns UIC station IDs (e.g. "8503000" for Zürich HB) used by the other tools. Note: search_connections accepts station names directly, so this tool is only needed when the user explicitly asks for station info or when you need disambiguation between multiple matches.
ticket
get_ticket_link
Get a direct purchase link to buy a train ticket on SBB.ch. Only call this when the user wants to buy a specific ticket. On mobile with SBB app installed, opens directly in the app with Halbtax/GA applied automatically.
trip
get_trip_details
Get detailed information about a specific train connection including all intermediate stops, platforms, and occupancy. Use a trip ID from search_connections results.

Swisstrip MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Swisstrip MCP do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_more_connections, get_prices, get_ticket_link, get_trip_details, search_connections, search_stations. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Swisstrip MCP working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 168 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Swisstrip MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Swisstrip MCP need an API key?
No. Swisstrip MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Swisstrip MCP?
It answers our handshake in 168 ms on average, which is faster than 70% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use Swisstrip MCP?
The npm package swisstrip-mcp was installed 84 times in the last week. Week over week that is -5%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Swisstrip MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the NOASSERTION licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
