swisstrip-mcp

The canonical SwissTrip MCP client. Connects AI assistants to Swiss Federal Railways (SBB / CFF / FFS) data: train schedules, station search, ticket prices, and direct ticket purchase links.

Backed by SwissTrip's hosted MCP service at https://mcp.swisstrip.app/mcp. Independent third-party implementation; not the official SBB MCP.
