Built-in capabilities (11)

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

What this connector unlocks

Connect your Railway account to any AI agent and take full control of your cloud deployments through natural conversation.

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

How it works

1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Railway Personal Access Token
3. Start managing your cloud deployments from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Stop clicking through the Railway dashboard to check deployment status or manage environment variables. Your AI acts as a dedicated cloud operations engineer.

Who is this for?

Developers — inspect services, track deployments and manage environment variables without leaving your IDE
DevOps Engineers — audit project configurations, review deployment statuses and manage persistent volumes
Team Leads — monitor project health, environment segregation and variable security across services

Frequently asked questions

Log in to the [Railway Dashboard](https://railway.com/dashboard), go to Account Settings > Tokens, and click Create Token. You can create a no-workspace token for broad access or a project-scoped token for limited access. Copy the token immediately — it won't be shown again.

Yes! Use list_variables to see all variable names (values are hidden for security) for a service in an environment. Use set_variable to create or update a variable with a name and value, and delete_variable to remove one. You'll need the service_id and environment_id from the list tools.

Railway supports any containerized service: web applications (Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, Java), databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB), message brokers and custom Docker images. Each service is deployed as an isolated container with its own environment variables, domains and persistent volumes.

Use list_projects to get your project_id, then list_environments with that project_id to get the environment_id. Next, use list_services with the project_id (and optionally environment_id) to get the service_id. These IDs are required for variable, deployment and domain operations.
