The swisstransport MCP server connects AI agents to Switzerland’s Transport Open Data API without authentication. It provides tools to search stations, find upcoming connections between locations, and inspect live departure boards. Use the hosted Pipeworx endpoint for remote MCP access, or run the package locally over stdio when you do not want a gateway round trip.
