Railway MCP and Claude skills

Read deployments, build and runtime logs and service status from Railway, and report failed or crashed deploys with the log lines that explain them.

Connect Railway to your agent (MCP)

Railway MCP server, Railway's official remote server at https://mcp.railway.com, signed in with OAuth, where you choose which workspaces and projects the client can reach. It's in Claude's connector directory; in Claude Code run claude mcp add --transport http railway https://mcp.railway.com. If you use the CLI (5.44.0 or later), railway mcp serves the tools from your railway login session: claude mcp add railway -- railway mcp, codex mcp add railway -- railway mcp, or railway mcp install --agent cursor (docs). Besides the read tools it has redeploy, create-deployment and feature-flag tools that change things.
The railway CLI. railway status and railway logs cover most checks from a linked project folder.
GraphQL API with a token. Create a workspace token in account settings and send it as Authorization: Bearer, or a project token, which is scoped to one environment, in the Project-Access-Token header. The skill reads RAILWAY_API_TOKEN.

Railway has no read-only tokens and the MCP server has no read-only mode, so limit reach instead: authorize only the project in the report, or use a project token for one environment (project tokens work with the API, not with the MCP server).

Railway deploys and usage

Every morning: Railway deployments that failed or crashed since yesterday, with the error lines, plus usage so far and the estimated bill for the cycle.

What agents do with Railway

Railway's public API is GraphQL at https://backboard.railway.com/graphql/v2. It exposes projects, environments, services and deployments; each deployment has a status such as SUCCESS, FAILED, CRASHED or BUILDING, with build and deployment logs behind it. The railway CLI reads the same data for a linked project: railway status shows what is running, and railway logs prints a service's logs. Railway's MCP server adds list-deployments, get-logs and get-status, plus a railway-agent tool for multi-step debugging.

The reports people schedule: failed or crashed deployments in the last day with the error lines, a daily record of what went to production, services that keep crashing after a deploy, and a check that every service in production is running.
