About Railway Alternative MCP Server
Connect your Railway account to any AI agent and take full control of your cloud deployments through natural conversation.
Mastra's agent abstraction provides a clean separation between LLM logic and Railway Alternative tool infrastructure. Connect 11 tools through the Vinkius and use Mastra's built-in workflow engine to chain tool calls with conditional logic, retries, and parallel execution — deployable to any Node.js host in one command.
What you can do
- Project Discovery — List all projects and retrieve their details including names, descriptions and timestamps
- Environment Management — View all deployment environments (production, staging, development) per project
- Service Inspection — List all services (containers, databases, plugins) within a project, optionally filtered by environment
- Deployment Tracking — View deployment history with status (success, failed, deploying) for any service
- Variable Management — List, set and delete environment variables for services in specific environments
- Volume Audit — List persistent storage volumes with their sizes and associated services
- Domain Management — Review custom domains and their SSL certificate status for any service

Railway Alternative MCP Tools for Mastra AI (11)
These 11 tools become available when you connect Railway Alternative to Mastra AI via MCP:
delete_variable
Provide the service_id, environment_id and variable name. WARNING: the variable will no longer be available to deployments after deletion. Delete an environment variable from a Railway service
get_project
Provide the project ID obtained from list_projects. Get details for a specific Railway project
get_viewer
Use this to verify which account the API token belongs to. Get current authenticated Railway user details
list_deployments
Each deployment has an ID, status (success, failed, deploying, removed), creation and update timestamps. Use the service_id from list_services. List deployments for a Railway service
list_domains
Each domain has an ID, the domain string and SSL status (verified, pending, failed). Use this to audit which services are accessible via custom URLs. List custom domains for a Railway service
list_environments
g. production, staging, development) configured within a specific Railway project. Each environment has its own set of services, variables and deployments. Use the project_id from list_projects. List environments in a Railway project
list_projects
Each project groups related services, environments and deployments together. Returns project ID, name, description and timestamps. Use this as the starting point for all Railway operations. List all Railway projects
list_services
Optionally filter by environment_id to see services in a specific environment only. Each service represents a deployable unit like a web app, API, database or Redis instance. List services in a Railway project
list_variables
Each variable has a name and scope (service, environment, project). Variable values are NOT returned for security — only names and scopes. Use service_id and environment_id from their respective list tools. List environment variables for a Railway service
list_volumes
Each volume has an ID, name, associated service ID and size in gigabytes. Volumes provide persistent storage that survives deployments and restarts. List persistent volumes in a Railway project
set_variable
Requires the service_id, environment_id, variable name and value. The variable will be available to all deployments of that service in the given environment. Set an environment variable for a Railway service
