About TripGo MCP Server
What you can do
Connect AI agents to the TripGo platform for intelligent multimodal journey planning:
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple TripGo tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 9 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
- 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 Windsurf 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 Windsurf with the TripGo MCP Server
Windsurf provides unique advantages when paired with TripGo through the Model Context Protocol.
Windsurf's Cascade agent autonomously chains multiple tool calls in sequence, solving complex multi-step tasks without manual intervention
Purpose-built for agentic workflows. Cascade understands context across your entire codebase and integrates MCP tools natively
JSON-based configuration means zero code changes: paste a URL, reload, and all 9 tools are immediately available
Real-time tool feedback is displayed inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor without switching contexts
TripGo + Windsurf Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Windsurf combined with the TripGo MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Automated code generation: ask Cascade to fetch data from TripGo and generate models, types, or handlers based on real API responses
Live debugging: query TripGo tools mid-session to inspect production data while debugging without leaving the editor
Documentation generation: pull schema information from TripGo and have Cascade generate comprehensive API docs automatically
Rapid prototyping: combine TripGo data with Cascade's code generation to scaffold entire features in minutes
TripGo MCP Tools for Windsurf (9)
These 9 tools become available when you connect TripGo to Windsurf 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 Windsurf
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Windsurf agent to start working with TripGo immediately.
"Plan a trip from Central Station to Opera House using only public transit and walking"
