- Search for public transport stops by name.
- Get upcoming departures for a specific stop.
- Plan journeys between two stops with optional departure time.
- Deploy as a serverless endpoint on Cloudflare Workers.
- Connect to remote MCP clients via SSE transport.
Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Berlin Transport MCP ServerCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Connect via Claude Desktop using the mcp-remote proxy with the server’s SSE URL, or deploy your own instance on Cloudflare Workers using the provided template and then connect from the Cloudflare AI Playground. Configure Claude Desktop by editing its MCP settings to include the server as shown in the README.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

}An MCP server that provides access to Berlin's public transport data through the VBB (Verkehrsverbund Berlin-Brandenburg) API. This server wraps thev6.vbb.transport.restAPI.
This server usesCode Mode: instead of exposing one MCP tool per API operation, the VBB API is described as an OpenAPI spec and the server exposes exactly two tools,searchandexecute. The model reads the spec, then writes and runs a short JavaScript snippet in a sandboxedDynamic Workerto call the API — which scales far better than dumping every tool schema into the model's context window, and lets it chain multiple calls (e.g. search a stop, then fetch its departures) in a single sandbox run.
This starts a local server athttp://localhost:8787/mcp.
This deploys the Worker to a URL like:berlin-transport-mcp.<your-account>.workers.dev/mcp.
- search— Search the OpenAPI spec (codemode.spec()) to discover available operations, parameters, and response shapes before calling the API.
- execute— Run a short async JavaScript snippet that callscodemode.request({ method, path, query })against the VBB API. The host proxies the actual HTTP request; the sandbox has no direct network access.
The OpenAPI spec exposed to the model covers:
- getLocations(GET /locations) — search for stops, stations, addresses, and points of interest.
- getDepartures(GET /stops/{id}/departures) — upcoming departures for a stop.
- getJourneys(GET /journeys) — journey options between an origin and a destination.
For more details about the underlying API, visitv6.vbb.transport.rest/getting-started.html.
The OpenAPI spec passed toopenApiMcpServerand therequestproxy function both live insrc/index.ts. To wrap a different API:
- UpdateAPI_ORIGINandopenApiSpecwith the new API's paths/operations.
- Adjust therequestfunction if the upstream API needs different methods, auth headers, or response handling.
You can connect to your MCP server from the Cloudflare AI Playground, which is a remote MCP client:
- Go tohttps://playground.ai.cloudflare.com/
- Enter your deployed MCP server URL (berlin-transport-mcp.<your-account>.workers.dev/mcp)
- You can now use thesearchandexecutetools directly from the playground!
Connect Claude Desktop to your MCP server
You can also connect to your remote MCP server from local MCP clients, by using themcp-remote proxy.
To connect to your MCP server from Claude Desktop, followAnthropic's Quickstartand within Claude Desktop go to Settings > Developer > Edit Config.
{ "mcpServers": { "berlin-transport": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "mcp-remote", "https://berlin-transport.mcp-tools.app/mcp" // or if local http://localhost:8787/mcp ] } } }
Restart Claude and you should see thesearchandexecutetools become available.
