Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Lyko MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Lyko to Cline and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Build live transit dashboards with Cline
Cline excels at writing code and fetching real-world data at the same time. Tell the agent to build a transit widget, and it will use `get_departures` and `get_arrivals` to populate the UI with actual, real-time European train schedules. It writes the React components, imports the live data, and shows you the diff. You don't need to write mock data generators anymore. The agent calls `get_stop_info` to grab physical coordinates, wheelchair accessibility status, and station amenities, pasting real JSON payloads directly into your test suites.
Automated route planning and booking integration
This MCP Server lets Cline programmatically test complex booking flows. The agent invokes `plan_trip` to compare multimodal options like trains, buses, and walking legs. It analyzes the return payload to verify transit times and transfer counts. To complete the integration test, the agent can call `book_trip` to simulate or execute mobility reservations. You get booking confirmations, cancellation policies, and QR code payloads written directly into your workspace files.
Direct access to regional network status inside VS Code
Debugging routing errors caused by line closures is a pain. Cline uses `get_network_status` to pull active service alerts, planned maintenance, and strike notifications from European operators. This lets you inspect real-world disruptions that might be skewing your API outputs. When you need to drill down into a specific route failure, the agent triggers `get_line_routes` and `get_line_info`. It maps out every stop sequence and service variation, giving you the exact transit context needed to fix your code.
