README

Railway

Deploy, configure, monitor, and troubleshoot apps and infrastructure on Railway from your coding agent.

What's included

  • use-railway skill: routes Railway requests to the right workflow: creating projects and services, deploying code, configuring environments, variables, and domains, provisioning databases and buckets, reading logs and metrics, and debugging failed builds or deployments.
  • Railway MCP server: Railway's hosted MCP server at https://mcp.railway.com, authenticated with your Railway account over OAuth.

Getting started

  1. Install the plugin.
  2. Connect your Railway account when prompted. If you don't have one, sign-in creates it.
  3. Try a starter prompt:
    • "Deploy this app to Railway"
    • "Check the Railway status for this project"
    • "Debug my latest failed Railway deployment"

Optional: Railway CLI

The hosted MCP server covers most platform operations without any local install. For workflows that need your local machine, such as deploying the current directory, SSH, or database analysis scripts, install the Railway CLI:

curl -fsSL agents.railway.com | sh

The database analysis scripts also require python3.
