About TripGo MCP Server
What you can do
Connect AI agents to the TripGo platform for intelligent multimodal journey planning:
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use TripGo tools. Connect 9 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
- Plan trips combining bus, train, subway, tram, ferry, walking, and cycling
- Find nearby transit stops by GPS coordinates with distance and route info
- Search stops by name or address for precise location discovery
- Get real-time departures and arrivals with live delay estimates
- Track vehicle positions on the map with real-time GPS data
- Review route information including all stops and agency details
- Check stop details with accessibility and amenity information
- Access global regions covering major cities worldwide
The TripGo MCP Server exposes 9 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to AutoGen in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use AutoGen with the TripGo MCP Server
AutoGen provides unique advantages when paired with TripGo through the Model Context Protocol.
Multi-agent conversations: multiple AutoGen agents discuss, delegate, and collaboratively use TripGo tools to solve complex tasks
Role-based architecture lets you assign TripGo tool access to specific agents. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates
Human-in-the-loop support: agents can pause for human approval before executing sensitive TripGo tool calls
Code execution sandbox: AutoGen agents can write and run code that processes TripGo tool responses in an isolated environment
TripGo + AutoGen Use Cases
Practical scenarios where AutoGen combined with the TripGo MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Collaborative analysis: one agent queries TripGo while another validates results and a third generates the final report
Automated review pipelines: a researcher agent fetches data from TripGo, a critic agent evaluates quality, and a writer produces the output
Interactive planning: agents negotiate task allocation using TripGo data to make informed decisions about resource distribution
Code generation with live data: an AutoGen coder agent writes scripts that process TripGo responses in a sandboxed execution environment
TripGo MCP Tools for AutoGen (9)
These 9 tools become available when you connect TripGo to AutoGen via MCP:
get_arrivals
Returns route names, origins, scheduled vs estimated arrival times, and delays. Use this to track incoming vehicles. Requires stop ID. Get upcoming arrivals to a transit stop
get_departures
Returns route names, destinations, scheduled vs estimated departure times, and delays. Use this to check when your next ride arrives. Requires stop ID. Get upcoming departures from a transit stop
get_nearby_stops
Returns stop IDs, names, coordinates, routes serving each stop, and distance from search point. Use this to find nearest transit options before planning trips. Find transit stops near a GPS coordinate
get_regions
Each region has an ID, name, and coverage area. Use this first to verify your city is covered before planning trips. Supports major cities across North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia. List all available transit regions supported by TripGo
get_route_info
Requires route ID. Use this to understand route coverage before planning trips. Get information about a specific transit route
get_stop_details
Requires stop ID from nearby stops or search results. Use this to review stop facilities before waiting there. Get detailed information about a specific transit stop
get_vehicle_positions
Optionally filter by route ID. Use this for real-time tracking of vehicles on the map. Get real-time vehicle positions for transit vehicles
plan_trip
Combines public transport (bus, train, subway, tram, ferry) with walking and cycling. Returns multiple trip options with departure/arrival times, duration, number of transfers, and step-by-step instructions. Optionally specify travel time and preferred transport modes. Plan a multimodal trip between two coordinates
search_stops
g., "Times Square", "Main St & 5th Ave"). Returns matching stops with IDs, names, coordinates, routes, and relevance scores. Use this when you know the stop name or intersection but not exact coordinates. Search for transit stops by name or address
Example Prompts for TripGo in AutoGen
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your AutoGen agent to start working with TripGo immediately.
"Plan a trip from Central Station to Opera House using only public transit and walking"
"What buses are departing from Stop 12345 in the next 15 minutes?"
"Show me all train and bus vehicles currently running on Route 480"
