Virail's MCP server puts live trains, buses, flights, ferries, hotels, and more directly in reach of your AI agent — real prices, real schedules, real booking links. No API key, nothing to run.
Setup
Pick where your agent runs. Every client needs the same URL — only the config screen differs.
Open Settings → Connectors on claude.ai.
Choose Add custom connector and paste the server URL — no config file needed.
Enable the Virail connector in any chat where you want it, and ask away.
Open Settings → Developer → Edit Config, which opens claude_desktop_config.json.
Add Virail to mcpServers:
{
"mcpServers": {
"virail": {
"url": "https://virail.ai/mcp"
}
}
}Save the file and fully restart Claude Desktop.
Create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project (or the global one under your home directory).
Add the same shape:
{
"mcpServers": {
"virail": {
"url": "https://virail.ai/mcp"
}
}
}Reopen Cursor's MCP settings panel and confirm Virail shows as connected.
Any client that speaks MCP over Streamable HTTP can use Virail — look for a "remote server," "custom connector," or "MCP URL" setting.
Give it https://virail.ai/mcp. No headers, no auth, no API key.
Prefer to run your own copy against Virail's public search API instead of the hosted server? The source is on GitHub.
