Install bart-mcp
The server’s own address, for the clients that take one directly. Or connect Ahel once and every client you use reads it from one address, with the account kept on Ahel rather than in each client’s config.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user bart-mcp 'https://bart-mcp.srivastsh.workers.dev/mcp'Run it once in your project, then open /mcp to approve any sign-in the server asks for.
Claude Desktop
https://bart-mcp.srivastsh.workers.dev/mcpAdd a custom connector in Settings, paste this address, and approve the sign-in.
Cursor

ChatGPT
https://bart-mcp.srivastsh.workers.dev/mcpIn Settings, enable Developer mode, create an MCP app, and paste this address. Your plan and workspace must allow custom apps.

From the project's README
As published by srivastsh/bay-area-transit-mcp in README.md. This repository publishes several servers, so only the opening is shown here.
Two Cloudflare Workers providing MCP (Model Context Protocol) access to BART and SF Muni real-time transit data. Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Poke, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client.
You don't need to deploy anything. Just point your MCP client at the hosted endpoints below.
Live Endpoints
- BART:
https://bart-mcp.srivastsh.workers.dev/mcp— no auth, just connect - Muni:
https://muni-mcp.srivastsh.workers.dev/mcp— pass your free 511.org API key viax-api-key-511header
These run on Cloudflare Workers' free tier (100k requests/day). Since the Muni server uses BYOK auth, each user's 511 rate limit is isolated to their own key.
Quick Start
BART (no auth required)
Just add the URL to your MCP client. No API key needed.
Muni (BYOK)
- Get a free 511.org API key at https://511.org/open-data/token
- Pass it via the
x-api-key-511header in your MCP config
