sbb-mcp

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

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