Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Hostinger API MCP Tools (0)
No explicit tool names declared in metadata yet. Check project README on main listing page.
Tfl Tools (6)
line_status
Current service status for London transport lines. Pass either a comma-separated list of modes (e.g. "tube,dlr") OR a specific lineId (e.g. "victoria", "central"). Returns each line with lineStatuses + statusSeverityDescription (e.g. "Good Service", "Minor Delays").
stop_search
Search for stops/stations by name. Returns matches with a naptanId (the "id" field) used by the arrivals tool, plus modes, zone, and lat/lon.
arrivals
Real-time predicted arrivals at a stop. Pass the naptanId from stop_search (e.g. "940GZZLUOXC"). Results are sorted by timeToStation (seconds away), nearest first.
plan_journey
Plan a journey across London transport. from/to may be stop names, postcodes, or "lat,lon" coordinates. Returns journey options (legs, durations, modes). If a location is ambiguous, the API returns disambiguation options instead of journeys — refine the input or use a naptanId/coords.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
