sbb-mcp

This package is now an alias for swisstrip-mcp. New users should install swisstrip-mcp directly: it is the canonical SwissTrip MCP client. The sbb-mcp name continues to work — it spawns swisstrip-mcp as a child process — so existing integrations don't break.

---

Independent MCP client by SwissTrip — connects AI assistants to Swiss Federal Railways (SBB / CFF / FFS) data: train schedules, station search, ticket prices, and direct ticket purchase links via SBB's SMAPI.

Thin client. All SBB API access, ticketing, and profile sync run on the hosted SwissTrip server at https://mcp.swisstrip.app/mcp.

Existing sbb-mcp configurations

Already running npx -y sbb-mcp? Nothing changes — it still works and forwards to the same hosted service. To migrate to the canonical name, swap sbb-mcp → swisstrip-mcp in your client config when convenient.

Tools

• search_stations — find Swiss stations, addresses, and points of interest
• search_connections — train schedules between two stations

Optional configuration

Environment variable	Purpose
SWISSTRIP_TOKEN	Sync your traveler profile from your SwissTrip account. Mint at https://swisstrip.app/settings/developer.
SWISSTRIP_MCP_URL	Override the hosted server URL. Default: https://mcp.swisstrip.app/mcp.
SBB_MCP_URL	Same as above (legacy name, still supported).

Why was this renamed?

sbb-mcp started as the canonical npm package. To protect against future trademark conflicts (the SBB acronym belongs to Schweizerische Bundesbahnen) the canonical implementation now lives at swisstrip-mcp, which is registered under the SwissTrip™ trademark. sbb-mcp and 8 other npm names (sbb-mcp-official, sbb-cff-ffs-mcp, swiss-rail-mcp, swiss-railways-mcp, swiss-train-mcp, swisstrip, swisstrip-ai, swisstrip-server) are 1-line spawners that depend on swisstrip-mcp.

This means: if any one of the SBB-themed names ever needs to be transferred or removed, every existing integration keeps running unchanged because they all forward to the canonical swisstrip-mcp.
