BVG MCP Server
by
Provides BVG public‑transport data to AI assistants via the Model Context Protocol, using standard input/output for communication.
BVG MCP Server Overview
What is BVG MCP Server about?
The server implements the Model Context Protocol to expose Berlin's BVG transport information (e.g., stop names) to AI models. It runs as a STDIO‑based service, spawning a separate process for each client session and terminating when the client disconnects.
How to use BVG MCP Server?
- Configure
claude_desktop_config.json(or the configuration of any MCP client) to point to the server executable. - Launch the client (e.g., Claude Desktop) and select the BVG tool.
- The client will start the server process, communicate over STDIN/STDOUT, and receive stop information in response to queries such as “Turmstraße”.
Key features of BVG MCP Server
- STDIO transport – simple, client‑agnostic communication channel.
- Per‑session process – isolates each client and frees resources automatically.
- Stop Information tool – returns the name of a BVG stop for a given Berlin location (starter functionality).
- Ready for Claude Desktop – pre‑configured usage example for the Claude AI desktop client.
Use cases of BVG MCP Server
- Enabling AI assistants to answer public‑transport queries in Berlin.
- Integrating BVG data into custom chatbots or voice agents.
- Prototyping location‑aware features for AI‑driven travel planners.
- Providing a lightweight bridge for any MCP‑compatible client that needs BVG stop data.
FAQ from the BVG MCP Server
Q: Which transport does the server support? A: Currently only stop‑name lookup for Berlin’s BVG network is implemented.
Q: Can I use the server with other MCP clients besides Claude Desktop? A: Yes, any client that supports STDIO transport can connect.
Q: How does the server terminate? A: The process ends automatically when the client closes the STDIO connection.
Q: Is authentication required? A: No API key is needed for the current starter functionality.
Q: Where can I find the source code? A: The repository is hosted at https://github.com/svkaizoku/mcp-bvg.

- The server terminates when the client disconnects
Usage with Claude Desktop:
- Configure
claude_desktop_config.jsonto point to this server - Open Claude Desktop and select the tool
Overview
This server implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) specification to provide AI assistant models with access to BVG Api
Available MCP Tools
- Stop Information : It provides the information for a location in berlin. Eg: Turmstrasse. It returns the stop name for now. Since this is a starter project.
